Wouldn't it also be greater than 1 for the same reason as OP? I think there are probably more babies in mothers than people missing testes.

but mothers don't have testicles

[–] Enkers@sh.itjust.works 11 points 9 months ago

Not their own, no, but the average number of testicles in a mother's body is greater than 0.

But they have the testicles of their soon to be born sons.

I would say whether it's greater than 1 or lesser than 1 is inconclusive without accurate data .

You would need to find out whether amount of men with removed testicles is greater than amount of women pregnant with a boy (after the average week when testicles appear). Also men to women ratio in global population needs to be accounted for.

That's easy. The number of men missing testicles is not 50%
