    As it’s shown that viltrumite powers don’t kick in right away, and usually only do a few years into their life, we can assume this counts for the super durability, and a circumcision with regular medical tools would still be possible. It is also safe to assume he lives in the USA based on multiple real life locations shown on the show.

    Based on the show’s release date, with him being 18 in 2021, mark Grayson would have been born in 2003. In 2003 the circumcision rate for newborn males in the USA was 55.9% overall. But for non white races specifically, it was 35.5%. With Debbie being Asian this lower percentage is the safer one to go off.

    With the added factor of Nolan being an alien, from another planet thousands of years ahead in medical technology, he wouldn’t be accustomed to certain medical practices on earth such as Americans circumcising newborns for the hell of it.

    So what I’m saying is, I think it’s quite likely Mark’s foreskin is fully intact

      Debbie would be South Korean in theory, so that would possibly knock your stat back up. It’s also funny that this isn’t the first time I’ve seen this question asked in this sub.

      I think the real factor would be Nolan. I think he expected his child to be a Viltrumite, so he’d likely be super against any body modifications, unless there was a circumcision culture on Viltrum.

      In summary, I think we have to determine if circumcision was a thing on Viltrum before we have enough data for an estimate.

        Doubtful. Any Viltrumite weak enough to die against an infection in infancy probably “deserves it” by their standards.

    Of course he is uncircumcised. His dad is a viltrumite and in their culture there is probably no meaning to chop of the part of your dick because why would they do that.
    Hence, he wouldn’t see the point in doing that to his son.

    The real question, does mark have a “normal” penis or some hybrid alien genitalia?

    Would sex even be possible for mark? He is the offspring of 2 compatible species but may be unable to reproduce himself.
