  Well, I've been around a lot longer than your sex partners. I was at my prime in the 60's, which is ancient history I guess. My sex partners were mainly graduate students at a major university. That was pre-AIDS of course. Many of the women I dated had enough sexual experience to have had both types. They seemed to like me as much as they had liked my uncircumsized brethren. But maybe they were just being nice.

  I hate to say this, since it deeply offends the politically correct. However, the reservoir of sexually transmitted disease, including and especially HIV, has always been the gay community. Their incredible promiscuity and deep desire for anal sex is the source of the present epidemic. If the HIV infected practitioners of anal sex could be quarantined we would stop the epidemic in its tracks. All this phoney emphasis on heterosexual transmission is a red herring. Women get HIV from bisexual men, both in Africa and the US. The epidemic of HIV in African-American women comes from the large population of A-A men "on the down low." HIV could have totally stopped 20 years ago if we had used standard public health measures, which the gay community was able to block. Unbelievable, since they were most of the people dieing from it.

  I was pleased to see the letter exposing the phoniness of the research on circumcision. Comparing two distinct populations, whose mores and behavior are not similar. Also, unbelievable.
