It was used as an insult by other teams, notably West Ham and Chelsea I think (help me out here) and so it was taken on as something to be celebrated rather than castigated for. Classic moment was at a match away to Man City quite a few years ago when the City fans were chanting something along the lines of;
"We've got foreskins, we've got foreskins, you've not"

And in response a group of jewish Spurs fans came together and exposed their circumsized members in response.

Sorry if I got that a bit wrong, but it was something like that. Can anyone verify?
