There have new studies that show that women to men transmission is almost impossible. There have been no known documented or proven cases of heterosexual transmission of women to men at all. The doctor says to reference data from the 90s on heterosexual couples, but how does one know that the men in that marriage promiscuous? How about sex acts? Those are supposed to be factored in.

Some experts constantly repeat the alleged 60% decrease risk of transmission in circumcised men and this is based upon one single study from 20+ years ago which was financed by several circumcision-promoting foundations!
