Male Circumcision May Protect Women Against Cervical Cancer

dailymail.co.uk — Men who have been circumcised gain double protection against AIDS and the virus that causes cervical cancer in women, research shows. Three new studies show that circumcision reduces the risk of both sexually transmitted infections in men and possibly their future sexual partners.

  • aereaus, on 12/18/2008, -0/+5Did the above people actually read the article? Probably not. I think this is interesting and more research should be done.
  • Newswiseguy, on 12/18/2008, -2/+5you're making mountains out of foreskins.
  • Buckwyld, on 12/18/2008, -1/+4Looks like I have a new selling point to get laid.

    Seriously...don't mess with my junk.
  • capnawesome, on 12/18/2008, -1/+3good thing I'm dating a Jew.
  • AmyVernon, on 12/18/2008, -2/+4What I wonder about studies like this is whether any factors other than the circumcision were taken into consideration. To have that as the only criteria by which to judge could be ignoring many other lifestyle factors that could play into it.
  • upick, on 12/18/2008, -2/+3Boy I wished I had been cut, bit too late now, good thing they invented a thing called the CONDOM
  • daonlyfreez, on 12/19/2008, -1/+1Exactly. I doubt removing a part of the skin would change anything considering infectiousness.

    I guess the amount of partners they had would be more relevant. Maybe the guys who are circumcised are simply getting less, because: they are circumcised for religious reasons, and they aren't allowed too, or if they are circumcised for medical reasons, they both may have a bit of a "trauma".

    Reminds me of the "vaginal design" bullcrap.
  • SoftlyCaress, on 12/18/2008, -2/+1Wow i wonder what they did back in the days ? Did they even have circumcision? You Know Back int eh horse and buggy days would have been dangerous to just pool it out and whack it ya think ? Anyways wonder if it caused cancer then also???? HMMMMMMMMMMMM
  • Infowarsdotcom, on 12/18/2008, -7/+2Circumcision is a religious practice...not a medical one.
  • InfernoX, on 12/18/2008, -8/+0I'm pretty sure it's already a fact that there's no medical difference between circumsion and not, just dailymail spam.

    Buried.
