|Text=Once circumcision programs become more widespread, more available, it's very likely that [[HIV ]] positive men will also seek the procedure. Partly (because) you don't want to be the only guy on the block who hasn't been [[circumcised]]. <small>'''NOTE:''' ''This is the goal? To make men feel uncomfortable?''</small>

|Text=We found a benefit to the ([[HIV]]) positive men of becoming circumcised. <small>'''NOTE:''' ''They are already HIV positive. You'd think this was a joke.''</small>

|Text=Where you don’t have complete [[keratinization ]] of the remaining [[mucosa]], then that could in effect increase the transmission of (the) virus. <small>'''NOTE:''' ''While pro-circ HIV "researchers" are claiming keratinization is a fact, pushers such as [[Brian J.

|Text=We are providing [[Adolescent and adult circumcision| male circumcision ]] as a service now to negative men, but also to positive men.

|Text=It’s amazing, cultures do change once people see there's a real advantage of a certain action ([[circumcision]]) on their part. <small>'''NOTE:''' ''You heard that right. She want's to make circumcision part of the culture. i.e., the norm.''</small>

|Text=Disappointingly, when we looked at the women partners of the (HIV) positive men, who've been circumcised, compared to the partners who had not been circumcised, we actually found a slightly higher rate of transmission from the positive circumcised men than from positive [[uncircumcised ]] men. <small>'''NOTE:''' ''Interestingly, Maria has said on numerous occasions that circumcision will reduce the rate of transmission to female partners, even though her research doesn't support this.
