Why, why? rant..

[kyle_dewald]

I just saw another commerical for KFCs pink bucket that helps breast cancer awareness. Everything I see is about breast cancer awareness. Why isn't there ball cancer or prostate cancer awareness? More guys get this than women who get breast cancer. I knew a guy who died from prostate cancer.

I assume it's because no on wants to buy a bucket of KFCs ball cancer awareness chicken, or wear a "Help The Balls" band like the Pink Breast Cancer bands.
I'm not saying women don't deserve the funds, I like ****s as do all men and whould do anything to save them but why do we get left out?

Cancer sucks no matter how you look at it.[down]

Breasts definitely have the marketing advantage and I am not complaining.

As for KFC, it probably causes ball cancer.

 

[Nuage420b]

i think it's cuz breast cancer is the leading type of cancer.

Guys also don't like telling people they have ball/prostate cancer. It's like how guys get domestically abused too, but good luck getting one to admit it.

Also amused that KFC and ball cancer came up in a post considering a episode of South Park just came out a couple weeks ago where the two main topics of the show were kfc and ball cancer.

doesn't KFC give some ridiculously low amount to the cause?
I don't know just asking

plus I am all about saving the ****ies
as a guy I think that they are worth saving, granted I would want to keep my nuts too but helping some guy save his balls is just in awkward idea all in it self, I'll save my balls privately.
(pun intended)

Save the ****ies, come on... isn't it obvious?

Besides, testicular cancer is one the most treatable and survivable cancer there is. They just cut the bad nut off, done deal.

No, it's not. (None of this is to diminish the importance of the battle against breast cancer) In the US, skin cancers (of all types) are far and away the most common malignancies.

Lung cancer is the second most common, but kills the most people.

Prostate and breast cancer are essentially tied for #3, but there are more fatatlities from breast cancer.

Colo-rectal cancer is #5, but causes more deaths than breast cancer.

Testicular cancer doesn't make the top 10.

End of public service announcement.

WOW! Have a great day everyone.....

what bugs me about the whole susan b kohmen deal...is MILLIONS UPON MILLIONS of dolalrs are raised every single year, with seemingly no results. A whole industry has been built around 'The Cure' so they need to raise money to exist. Cure breast cancer, no more $$$. I dunno..always bugged me.

That said, my wife and her mom both had **** cancer...cured.

 

[delta one]

so the top two are from what people do to themselves (for the most part) failure to protect yourself from harmful UV rays and smoking (yes I know that there are other ways to get these but I am willing to bet these are the top two causes of them in the current era second hand smoke may be up there too)

 

[BikerTrash]

Eh, KFC. [down] I recently saw the breast cancer bucket sign, $21 for 10 pieces of small, greasy, heat lamp chicken is crazy. I can get 12 pieces of big, fresh chicken at my local grocery store for $11.

 

[Baal]

Yeah, but that's a separate issue, ain't it? [smirk]

 

[upthemaiden]

Just saw this topic posted on another forum, and it reminded me of this one, and it's concern for the lack of attention for prostate cancer...
