Zimbabwe: Clinton Hails Legislators' CircumcisionArticle here. Excerpt: 'Washington, DC, Usa — United States Secretary of State Mrs Hillary Clinton has lauded 40 Zimbabwean parliamentarians who recently underwent voluntary male circumcision. She described the team as true leaders who should be applauded for their role in the HIV and Aids fight. Addressing 20 000 delegates gathered here for the XIX International Aids Conference, Mrs Clinton said Zimbabwean lawmakers were a good example of political leadership's commitment in the HIV and Aids management. She said they supported more than 400 000 male circumcision procedures since last December alone and hoped to do more through different grants. ". . .We want the world to know that this procedure reduces the risk of female-to-male transmission by more than 60 percent and for the rest of the man's life, so the impact can be phenomenal. "In Zimbabwe, some male lawmakers wanted to show their constituents how safe and virtually painless the procedure is, so they went to a mobile clinic and got circumcised.'

Surprise, surprise!
If there was a huge push on to get women's genitalia partially excised in an effort to reduce the risk of HIV spreading, do you think Mme Clinton would be so gung-ho about it? You know, to give you an idea of how far-out that idea is, I can hardly imagine such a world. That's how far off in the other direction we're in.
