Using a population-based survey we examined the behaviors, beliefs, and HIV/HSV-2 serostatus of men and women in the traditionally non-circumcising community of Kisumu, Kenya prior to establishment of voluntary medical male circumcision services.

Preference for circumcision was increased with understanding that circumcised men are less likely to become infected with HIV
