I think most men are circumsized before contracting cancer, so that should have read, "Men who have prostate cancer are less likely to have been circumcised..."

Quote:
The study doesn't confirm that circumcision directly lowers the risk of prostate cancer, and the study lead author cautioned that the findings shouldn't play a role in the decisions of parents about the sometimes-controversial procedure.
