Circumcision Is Good

Study shows circumcision may reduce AIDS risk

I’ve about this theory before. Interesting quote:

Researchers believe circumcision helps to cut infection risk because the foreskin is covered in cells that the virus seems able to easily infect. The virus may also survive better in a warm, wet environment like that found beneath a foreskin.

In my life I’ve had three friends who underwent circumcision late in life. One did it for religious/ethnic reasons; the other two because of infections.

If the HIV virus survives better beneath the foreskin, I wonder if other STD’s do so as well?

For all those people who say circumcising baby boys is cruel, speaking from experience, I can tell you that I have ZERO recollection of the procedure. My friends—who were 15, 27 and 28, respectively, when circumcised—remember the procedure very well, and not fondly I might add.
