We've got an excuse now

For ages it was thought that circumcision was something that Jewish people and a few others did for ritual purpose and then later it became common in the U.S. and abroad as a healthy thing to do because it somehow helps prevent infection. Well apparently that wasn't really true and then there were folks that gave reasons like sex is better and then the pre-ejaculation folks said the increased sensitivity caused more quick spurters. Well now they're saying it prevents AIDS.
"Circumcision appears to reduce a man’s risk of contracting AIDS from heterosexual sex by half, United States government health officials said yesterday, and the directors of the two largest funds for fighting the disease said they would consider paying for circumcisions in high-risk countries."
...
"Uncircumcised men are thought to be more susceptible because the underside of the foreskin is rich in Langerhans cells, sentinel cells of the immune system, which attach easily to the human immunodeficiency virus, which causes AIDS. The foreskin also often suffers small tears during intercourse.

But experts also cautioned that circumcision is no cure-all. It only lessens the chances that a man will catch the virus; it is expensive compared to condoms, abstinence or other methods; and the surgery has serious risks if performed by folk healers using dirty blades, as often happens in rural Africa."

So sorry super conservatives.. this won't give you another excuse to ban condom use or not support funding it.
