The Gender Paradox In India
Rabbi Ben Greenberg: A Responsible Solution To The Jewish Divorce…
Last night I got a Facebook message:
Soon after I got about 10 more private messages from various women in my circle inquiring about my over-the-shoulder boulder-holder in honor of breast cancer awareness and prevention. (But question: Do any guys really give a sh** about this?)
So let's do it, ladies. Leave a comment describing your bra, the color and anything else you'd like to mention, then take off your top and check your boobies for cancer.
Mine:
OH MY GOD, IT'S HUGE! I could wear it as a hat if I fold it in half. It's like a bridge with huge expansion cables holding up my shoulders. It's like the scales of sweet lady justice cradling the very laws of humanity in her gigantic DDD cups! I bet it could fit on the Statue of Liberty.
Oh, and it's black.

I am also a breast cancer survivor of two years after undergoing the full arsenal of treatments that, hopefully eradicated my body of this horrible disease. I am also currently taking oral cancer prevention medication - it is my reminder each and every day of the fight. Cancer is not top of mind for everyone like it is for me and my bc sisters, however, and I applaud any attempt to raise awareness and stir attention. I thought the 'what color are you wearing' Facebook campaign was an interesting, though misguided, idea. I did post my color, but I also included a story about WHY women were posting colors on FB. How can it be called awareness if nobody knows what it means??
Yes, it got people talking but I wonder how many missed the intended message completely and only paid attention to the mysterious and ultimately provacative status updates of their women friends?

That's the most sensible reply to this article

It seemed like a bit of harmless fun, but by the end of the day it had turned into a competition to see whose bra was the sexiest/cutest/craziest. Lace and polka dots aren't colours.

All of the people upset over this are retarded.
The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation facebook page jumped over 140,000 fans from this.
