1. Frederick Rhodes Frederick Rhodes Mexico says:

    This mucosal entree point in the male prepuce has always been a maybe or maybe not, just speculation, never been obserbed before, not actually proven possibility, suggestion by proponents of infant circumcision. HIV is still thought to be aquired in the same manner as hepatitis C, through the blood. If you are going to suggest that our mucosal cells are in fact the entree point for HIV, then what about our sinuses, mouth and lungs? That would suggest HIV can be passed just like the Cold and Flu viruses, from a sneeze, hand shake, kissing grandma, as well as rough unprotected sex.
