This is old news, though the suggestion in the article that parents should now start circumcising their sons to prevent HIV is utterly absurd. Safe sex means wearing a condom....not cutting off a natural part of a person's body.

I read a medical article that stated that circumcised men loose up to 30% of the sensation they are able to feel during sex. Having "all my bits", I for one am thankful. Use a condom for sex and soap for cleanliness and call it a day.

Speaking as one who doesn't "have all my bits," I think my equipement is quite sensitive enough, thank you. And if I'm less sensitive I suppose that means I last longer. woohoo!

Uh ... You're gonna have to trust me on this one. Being circumcised no stop Mr. Nasty Bug.
