The World Health Organization and
UNAIDS said circumcision should be added to current interventions to reduce the spread of HIV. Modelling studies have shown that if male circumcision was more widely available, millions of lives, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa would be saved.
Specific cells in the foreskin may be potential targets for HIV infection and also the skin under the foreskin becomes less sensitive and is less likely to bleed reducing risk of infection following circumcision.
I think this is a great idea,
especially considering it's an external organ and a procedure like this is basically a snip here and a snip there. Right up there on the list is the use of the male birth control pill, although personally why go with a pill when you can shoot an needle in their ass and call it a day (or year for that matter). Call me a little to sarcastic, but seriously.....be a "man" and walk it off.
Last Friday two of my very good friends celebrated their birthdays! I won't reveal how old they turned, but it really doesn't matter...both lovely ladies have many many years ahead of them before they'll have to bust out the "anti-wrinkle" cream.

Marijuana is not kosher for Passover, a pro-cannabis advocacy group says, advising Jews who observe the week-long holiday's special dietary laws to take a break from smoking the weed. The Green Leaf Party, which has made several unsuccessful attempts to win election to parliament on a platform urging marijuana's legalisation, said it was issuing its advisory as a service to Jews who don't want to break ritual law.
