      Human tails are kind of a thing and doctors do remove them. But it’s not a glorious tiger tail or anything, it’s like a stub, it’s an outgrowth of the coccyx, which is literally a vestigial tail.

        If my tail wouldn’t be prehensile, then I’d want it remove too. It’s a sartorial mess with no upside.
