Did anyone hear this on Womans Hour this morning?

[Lord Bracknell]

In a discussion about the prevention of HIV, it was mentioned that circumcised men are less likely to contract the condition than uncircumcised men. The studio expert then went on to describe a range of measures that might help prevent HIV infection, concluding with this truly memorable phrase...

"Circumcision is a tool that is hard to roll out".

Fits of suppressed giggles from the women in the studio.

I didn't hear the giggles. I was to busy feeling pleased that I had a 60% less chance of contracting it.

The circumcision-reducing-infection-chances thing has been entirely debunked anyway... only two things actually reduce the chances of infection, condoms and not f***ing around.

I usually listen in but I missed yesterday's episode!!!

I knew a bloke that used to circumcise people for a living. The pay was crap but the tips were good.

Boom, boom.

People that get circumcised are idiots, but they are not complete pricks


Boom, boom

Circumcision? Pah! No skin off my nose.

I tried to listen to it, but the signal wasn't very good.

I was cut off before the end.

I saw a home circumcision kit on eBay the other day.

A cut-price version though.

It was going for a snip.

I even went to Listen Again just to hear this gem. Sadly the giggles seem to have been completely suppressed now.

Far more shocking even than summary circumcision with a rusty razor was Lord B's reckless excision of the apostrophe from Woman's Hour [which the BBC should surely have named Women's Hour anyway.]

Harrumph... further lowering of standards, now infecting NSC's normally punctuation-perfect moderator... letter to the Telegraph, etc....

This post could even render me liable to a ban, I suppose.
