-41 The only reason why breast cancer receives so much attention because it is "sexy", people want to "save the boobs", there are more deadly types of cancer out there that need just as much research, but they are not as marketable, amirite?

I thought it was because it was more common hmm But I guess boobs are a bit more marketable than lung cancer or melanoma

I'm a little disappointed this has so many negative votes. I am so sick of everything in the world being only about breast cancer. I have so much anger for the Susan G Komen foundation. They have gone as far as shutting down, or taking large profits from any organization that uses "for the cure" in their title. They made $400 million last year, and what did they use most of it for? More fundraisers and eduction. If you don't know what breast cancer is, you should just shoot yourself. Only 24% went into actual breast cancer research. I'm sorry, but you're not saving anyone's life by wearing a shirt saying, "touch yer boobiezzzz" so don't act so superior when you do.

It's ridiculous that you think that. The reason why education and awareness is so important with breast cancer is because it is relatively easy to check yourself and if you notice changes get tests and hopefully get treatment early before it's too late.

Yes, but who isn't aware of breast cancer at this day and age? The majority of the money should not be spent on spreading the word that people already know, and actually do something about the situation.

Awareness isn't research. The money is not going to actually curing it, it just goes back into the charity to raise more awareness.

I think it's more because people are so into women's rights these days. So if a woman has breast cancer, it's considered a battle between her and one of the only things that, physically, can distinguish her as a woman. Except nobody cares about women who are suffering from other types of campers.
