    First, even if circumcision provided 100% protection (which it does not), it is cosmetic sexual surgery.  Performing it on uninformed and unconsenting minors is a human rights abuse.  It permanently removes important sensory functions and dooms the victim to a lifetime of diminished sexual enjoyment.
    Secondly, what does 60% protection mean?  That 60% of the time you have sex with an infected person you won't contract AIDS? So, the remaining 40% of the time you will.  If you like those odds just use a condom 60% of the time!
