Guest ear wig Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 BACK TO THE STONE AGE WITH RAINAKER>>>>>I see an American is very touchy about this subject in the UK it is no Propblem Circumcision is the most barbaric procedures in the world, (PHRASE DELETED - MODERATOR) The reason most of us cum to Thailand is for the un-cut guys amounts other things. I use to live in Fort Lauderdale so many Un-Cut guyz there I was in suck great demand but when I find one especially in Thailand they are gone from me, its as if some one like scissor hands had been at there pecker, what a mess with many, how disgusting it should stay in the archives of being hung drawn and quartered, burning witches and the electric chair, (PHRASE DELETED - MODERATOR) Australia have now stopped cutting, Great Briton stopped it (PHRASE DELETED - MODERATOR) The only time is should be cut is for medical those dry shriveled head yuk as a matter of fact i saw one to day I ran. I feel so sorry for guyz who are cut they had no chance to complain so dont know any different poor things. See this:- Controversy over circumcision heightened in US after report By Prof Stan Grossfeld, The Brigham contretemps underscores how sensitive and controversial an issue circumcision remains in the United States, even more so since a March 2005 report by the American Academy of Pediatrics concluded that the medical benefits of circumcision no longer justify its use. Now, a no-cut consensus is starting to emerge. And for the first time, the academy recommended that if circumcision is chosen, injections of lidocaine should be used to prevent Quote
Guest stef Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 BACK TO THE STONE AGE WITH RAINMAKER>>>>> Circumcision is the most barbaric procedures in the world,(PHRASE TEMPORARILY DELETE BY A MODERATOR) To each his own I guess. To go that far and say it is the "barbaric " procedure in the world, it might be a little too much. It is cleaner and it does smelll better when it is cut. That's my experience... Not that I am a slut either, but I have had few of those uncut experiences ( Not specially in Thailand ) where I almost beg to have the pants back on... That's what I call " Barbaric " WHEN IT DOES SMELL I have lots of friends that have many opinions about this.... but this is the first time I hear this to be a Barbaric thing... I prefer cut really but I would not walk away from a gorgeous guy that is uncut either Thanks Rainwalker for the HIV. Stats. It is sad to see so much people having HIV. So sad. What surprises me, is the fact that Hetero sex is number one for the virus spread among people... I would think it was the other way around.... Quote
Guest wowpow Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 Circumcision can cut the rate of HIV infection in heterosexual men by 50%, results from two African trials show. The findings are so striking, the US National Institutes of Health decided it would be unethical to continue and stopped the trials early. It supports a previous South African study which reported similar results. Experts said it was a significant breakthrough but could not replace standard methods of preventing infection such as condoms. These findings are of great interest to public health policy makers who are developing and implementing comprehensive HIV prevention programmes Dr Elias Zerhouni US National Institutes of Health The two trials of around 8,000 men took place in Uganda and Kenya were due to finish in July and September 2007 respectively. But after an interim review of the data by the NIH Data and Safety Monitoring Board decided to halt the trials as it was unethical not to offer circumcision in the men who were acting as controls.

Guest Aunty Posted December 14, 2006 Posted December 14, 2006 A couple of points to keep in mind about this study and others like it, is that it relates to circumcision in heterosexual men and its moderating effect on HIV transmission in heterosexual sex, i.e., vaginal sex. There are no studies about what effect, if any, that being circumcised has on the rates of HIV transmission among gay men, or men who have anal sex. For all we know having a cut cock may make no difference to the rates of transmission in anal sex. I think in very poor countries where compliance issues exist among heterosexual men over condom use (access, poverty, knowledge of their correct use etc), e.g., Sub-Saharan Africa, a good case now exists to recommend that all new born boys are circumcised to help reduce the rates of HIV infection among these individuals and their partners when they get older. In a country like Thailand I Quote
