I agree. That is why we do need to present the penis with which a baby 
born and grew up, if not modified, as a "penis".
Not as an "uncircumsed penis".

First label (penis) is oriented toward "english language".
Second label (uncircumsed penis) is oriented toward "english culture" 
(ie, meant to fit with the number of circumsised people in english culture).

English language, not english culture. That was precisely my point as 
well :-)
