Is there really any data out there that says Europeans/ Canadians/ Australians (with a much smaller % of circumcised men) have a greater incidence of STIs currently or historically compared to Americans (with much higher circumcision rates)?[/quote]
You might be shocked that the circumcision rates in Canada an Australia are not that far behind the US.

It's a scientifically proven fact that circumcision lowers STI rates among all men. You seem to be asking for evidence that Whites are less prone to STIs and that data does not exist.

Australia is 58%
Canada is 30%

These are big differences to me.

UK 20%
France 14%
