246. an abrasian on a highly vascularized area of skin
can facilitate infection with many things including HIV. Foreskins are highly vascularized, and microscopic abrasian can result from the simple mechanics of sex in some cases.

As I understand it, HIV 1 is more highly infectious through mucous membranes than other variants, which also means women in developing countries can be more easily infected through sex and fewer exposures.

Anyway, it's always funny how everyone wants to justify who they are themselves by trying to force everyone else to be like them. The anti-circ crowd is just shrieky and statistically absurd considering that the great grand majority of men don't give a damn one way or another about their own weeners, much less someone else's.
