Trebor.
10.15.12 | Who in god's name doesn't know what breast cancer is?
It's liking advertising milk |

10.15.12 | Must be a big problem if their has to be awareness. Either that or people are just plain stupid. You would think that everyone would know about AIDS but I still AIDS awareness (not with the NFL) every now and then. |
controlled
10.15.12 | though extremely unfair it's understandable (i use that term loosely) why lung cancer isn't promoted as highly as other forms of cancer |
MasBarHigeuoris21
10.15.12 | Yeah, all you have to do is look at a pack of cigarettes and you see the lung cancer warning. |
ShadowRemains
10.15.12 | yeah because a vast majority of lung cancer is caused by a completely preventable habit |
Trebor.
10.15.12 | Unless you're a poor soul like Walter White and you get cancer without being a terrible person |

10.15.12 | true for lung cancer. But what about colorectal? It's just as easy to detect early and I would bet there are many people who don't ever get checked. |
Trebor.
10.15.12 | Cuz breast cancer is a money making machine |
peaks40
10.15.12 | my guess is cause women are the reproduction, its way overblown and it unnerves me |
Titan
10.15.12 | Feminist movements |
Trebor.
10.15.12 | no
It's because they make tons of money off of it
Stop trying to make it some dumb men vs women shit
Feminists aren't running this shit, capitalists are |

10.15.12 | damn suits |

10.15.12 | I agree trebor. The Susan G Komen foundation recently sued another charity because they were saying something about looking for the cure. Greedy soulless assholes. |

10.15.12 | Testicular cancer awareness month 2012 |

10.15.12 | Sex sells. |
bach
10.15.12 | Well, statistically, over 80% of lung cancer is directly caused by smoking. Stop smoking. There's your god damn awareness. |
peaks40
10.15.12 | every single friend i have smokes, im so concerned of me getting fucked over |
bach
10.15.12 | They can still quit before it's too late. |

10.15.12 | and men love cancer too? |
Lelle
10.15.12 | Well if they didn't raise breast cancer awareness less people would (obviously) be aware of it and more women would die from it because they didn't go and check themselves at the doctor regularly enough |
awal16
10.15.12 | I don't think that each sport needs its own awareness month though. more money goes to breast cancer groups than any groups for other cancers, and there's no real justification for it |
Lelle
10.15.12 | That might be true. I have no idea how the rates of different types of cancer compare though? We could use a melanoma
campaign though, at least here in Europe |
WeepingBanana
10.15.12 | 3 rules hard but your point is stupid |
awal16
10.15.12 | the only real point is that more awareness should be going elsewhere. breast cancer is not the only thing that people should be told about. |
WeepingBanana
10.15.12 | yeah but the presence of breast cancer awareness isn't stopping anyone from spreading awareness of other cancers. if anything it increases awareness of other cancers as well |
WeepingBanana
10.15.12 | but yeah it's 99% likely that the NFL just does this to seem altruistic |
awal16
10.15.12 | it does take funding away from other causes though |
WeepingBanana
10.15.12 | no... |
Lelle
10.15.12 | @andcas you sure about that? There are many people who obviously aren't aware of the dangers of frying themselves for like 8 hours once the first summer sun shows its face after a long scandinavian winter |

10.15.12 | It's all fun & games till' your favorite animated super spy and all round man of mystery is affected. |

EyeForAnEye
10.15.12 | If this posts gets 100,000,000 likes, you need to shave your head pink for breast cancer. |
TheSupernatural
10.15.12 | I completely agree... the breast cancer awareness thing is a joke, I'm glad someone's calling it out. It's getting really annoying |
Satellite
10.15.12 | yeah seriously fuck people caring about a disease |
Eclecticist
10.15.12 | this month you're complaining about breast cancer awareness, next month it will be prostate cancer when every man grows out their mustache. |

10.15.12 | do people actually do that? |
Satellite
10.15.12 | no shave november motherfucker |

10.15.12 | A. breast cancer is extremely marketable apparently -- B. u know most of these dolts in the nfl touting their pink bullshit r misogynistic female-objectifying ass motherfuckers who couldn't give a shit less |
