Answers:
As with anything, it has advantages and disadvanges. Disadvantages include loss of sensitivity and pleasure, more difficulty with masturbation (after all, that's how it was promoted in the USA since masturbation was 'bad'), and plenty of others. You can read of them here:

In general, circumcision is becoming a lot less popular. The USA is the last advanced nation still doing it, but rates are quickly falling. In some states the rate is as low as 14%, compared to being almost universal a few decades ago.

As far as HIV/AIDS goes, the advanced nation with the highest circumcision rates (the USA) has the highest HIV/AIDS rates in the advanced nations, according to the CIA, so circumcision doesn't generally 'lower HIV rates' in advanced nations (we take showers! *gasp!*)
