SOP, from the same contributor as hair transplant above who seems to be creating quite a few low-quality entries. — surjection ⟨??⟩ 09:02, 23 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

I can see some uses in Google Books, all relating to circumcision (so not purely SoP, since it doesn't refer to e.g. a woman, who never had a foreskin). We also have penis envy, breast envy, womb envy, vagina envy. Equinox ◑ 09:55, 23 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

• Keep- foreskin envy could mean envy between people who have foreskins of another's foreskin- 'That person has a nice foreskin, I wish my foreskin was that nice' hence I am recommending keeping this. --Geographyinitiative (talk) 01:55, 5 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

When you say "could mean", I assume you mean "could be thought to mean, but in fact usually doesn't". I think there are many cases where "envy" is likely to be comparing having with not having, rather than comparing degrees, just depending on the nature of the thing mentioned. You can find e.g. "freckle envy", "blue eye envy", "long hair envy" etc., also cases that presumably usually refer to the have / not have comparison. Mihia (talk) 02:43, 6 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
