    I looked into this claim a couple of years ago. I couldn’t find any well executed study that showed this. It’s mainly a talking point that people who argue for circumcision claim is true, but I couldn’t find any scientific support for this.

      I was unclear. Circumcision predisposes you to STD transmission iirc, but I also couldn’t find anything.
