It wasnt really about the STD's but that every option has it dangers.
STD's serve their purpose too.

There are arguments both ways. There can be severe complications due to a botched circumcision operation (see picture below)  , and without circumcision there is a greater chance of infection for those who neglect their personal hygiene for one reaon or another.

There may be cases where circumcision is more warranted, such as a tight prepuce which in itself can lead to a greater risk of infection and less sensitivity (less pleasurable sex), but there are other remedies such as steroid creams and  in the case of a tight frenulum (which is a frequent cause of tight prepuce), frenuloplasty (snip!) is probably a better option. The frenulum is the tissue that connects the prepuce to the underside of the penis. If it's too short, it can make cleaning difficult.  (By the way there is another "frenulum", called the lingual frenulum which connects the tongue to the floor of the mouth) 

The general consensus seems to be that the risks outweigh the benefits, particularly as there are other solutions available. The downside is that men are generally very reluctant to see a doctor about anything related to that and will put up with it.

I hope that didn't make your eyes water too much

"Randomized control trials, including in Uganda, Kenya and South Africa, have shown that circumcision can reduce the transmission of HIV in heterosexual men by as much as 65 percent. Introducing it widely in sub-Saharan Africa, particularly in southern Africa where male circumcision rates are low, could prevent an estimated two million infections in the next ten years and save as many as four million lives over the next 20 years."

Earlier Male Circumcision May Help to Slow Rates of HIV, HPV Transmission in South Africa

According to Anna R. Giuliano, Ph.D., program leader in cancer epidemiology at Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa, Fla., and colleagues in the Netherlands, earlier circumcision of males in South Africa may be a positive step in slowing the spread of both HIV and the human papillomavirus (HPV). Their commentary and data were published in a recent issue of the British medical journal The Lancet Infectious Diseases (Vol. 11) 581-582.

"Countries with high incidences of HIV also have high incidences of cancer-related HPV," said Giuliano. "This is especially true in South Africa."

Male Circumcision Reduces HIV Risk: No Further Evidence Needed, According To Review

ScienceDaily (Apr. 15, 2009) — Three recent African trials support male circumcision for reducing the risk of contracting HIV in heterosexual men. After including new data from these trials in their review, Cochrane Researchers have changed their previous conclusions that there was insufficient evidence to recommend circumcision as an intervention to prevent HIV infection in heterosexual men.

Oh, for f-cks sake. Who f-ckin' cares about the whole purple helmet/covered wagon argument?

If you've already got the chop then you can't get it put on and if you haven't got the chop you're hardly likely to go out and get it done. As for what other people have or what parents choose for their children? who fuggin' cares?

Although, considering that you're such a knob end (covered or otherwise), this thread is hardly surprising coming from you, Falah.
