Circumcision And the many benefits... 551

Scientists currently believe that penile tumors are caused by cancer producing effects of secretions that become trapped within the foreskin if they are not washed away on a regular basis. It is not surprising, therefore, that this particular malignancy is extraordinarily common in South and Central America, as well as other Third World countries, where public health and personal hygiene often are lacking. Also, circumcision, a practice that could improve hygiene, is not regularly performed. In the United States, penile cancer is a relatively unusual cancer, probably due to the country's superior sanitary and hygienic conditions along with commonly practiced circumcision.

However, scientists are currently studying other causes of penile cancer, particularly the role of human papilloma virus (HPV), which already has strong links to cervical cancer. Antibodies to HPV-16, a specific type of papilloma virus also implicated in cervical cancer, have been found in many patients with penile cancer. Made illegal?

Not pseudo science. But you just despise that which is Jewish and proven the test of time. I suppose you're more qualified than the peer reviewed Journal? Where have you been published, the Quack Press?

That is very responsible. Hardly all Jewish

Tell that to my uncle.. Who had it.

While certainly rarer than females, it clearly exists.

"Research carried out at Texas University indicates that male breast cancer numbers are rising and most men fail to spot it until it is too late. Even though the number of cases of male breast cancers is much lower than female breast cancers, the number of male cases has increase from 0.86 to 1.08 per 100,000 men in 20 years."
