Could Circumcision Increase Transmission of HIV?

Brian Earp makes the case that it could, and he has some valid points. However, Earp is a prohibitionist, and as in the abortion debate, this matters. The “ban all circumcision”-“Jews mutilate children” crowd are immune to arguments just as the “abortion is murder”-people are too morally upset to accept that pro-choice and harm reduction is anything but pro-genocide.
