Speaking as an owner of precious man-jewels, I can entirely sympathise. It’s not just the symbolism or the association with what makes you a man, it’s the fact that they are by far and away the most vulnerable part of a man.

I know more than I care to about the experience of rape victims, thank you.
The English? There are dozens of English accents. About half are rhotic and about half are non-rhotic. The proportions haven’t really changed.
