US Call for higher circumcision rate

"Hey you, when you are circumcised, you can't get Aids or Herpes!!!"

Just how misleading can you get? Use a condom.

I have absolutely no problem with circumcision. I have a BIG problem with the circumcision of boys and infants. Why do we need to protect sexually inactive people from sexually transmitted diseases? Circumcision is not a vaccine.

My future sons will be keeping theirs, thank you very much. Their father is very happy with his and they will be as well.

I hate research like this, it's actually pretty unscientific and totally depressing. If you chop your head off, you won't get a headache, so sharpen the axe!

Castration probably cuts down the risk of infection with STDs too, that doesn't mean it is a good idea...

If you make sex 30% less pleasurable to men, they will fuck less often, getting less diseases. What a surprise. Like the mothers who mutilate their daughters, i'm sure "Wasserheit" and "Golden" have less (enjoyable) sex themselves, and would like to see others punished as well.

Of course, getting rid of all the nonsense semitic retards made up thousands of years ago wouldn't help fight STDs.

I wonder how much money is made annually from the carving up of infant boys. Probably quite a bit eh?

Did you know that pharma Co's buy the foreskins to use for vacine research?

zobier · 2009-03-26T11:56:45+00:00

I don't think it's a good idea personally.

2009-03-26T22:49:33+00:00

A penis without a foreskin is hardly a penis at all.

"What a cute little boy you have! Ten fingers, ten toes...... but wait! What's that? Does the skin on his penis extend the entire length of the penis?! Well, we'll have to fix that problem."

This article is, at least, somewhat balanced in that it recognizes

"the US had an "obsession" with circumcision being the answer to controlling sexually transmitted infections."

KosmoTheSynner · 2009-03-26T23:43:13+00:00

Saying that we need to mutilate the genitals of more infants in our nation to help prevent STD's is like saying we need to kill Arabs to lower our gas prices... Where's the logic in this? Instead of forcing a dangerous procedure that causes permanent damage, perhaps we could promote safe sex and the use of condoms? Oh wait, that requires logic and common sense, I forgot...

kanuk876 · 2009-03-27T03:25:37+00:00

What I want to know is.... where did Mr. Foreskin go?

Judging by the comments redditors seam to love the uncircumcised penis.

The researchers, from Johns Hopkins University, found circumcision reduced the risk of herpes by 25%, and human papillomavirus (HPV) by a third.

HPV causes cervical cancer in women, and genital warts in both sexes.

Circumcision rates have been declining in the US and are lowest among black and Hispanic patients - the groups with the highest rates of HIV, herpes and cervical cancer.

The problem with science it doesn't respect anyone's sacred cows. Anti-circumcision redditors need the equivalent of "creationist scientists" to fight this one.
