How can I raise awareness that breast cancer only focuses on women and not men or children


How can I raise awareness that breast cancer only focuses on women and not men or children?
-I think we need to bring back equality - breast cancer is the 5th leading cause of death in women -skin, brain, etc affects men, women, and children equally -less then 1% of men get breast cancer -women can now get breast augmentations paid by insurance companies due to breast cancer. Kurt...never thought of that! That is inequality at it's finest.

Dude, if you want to have a cause, consider this. If a woman gets pregnant, she can decide to terminate the pregnancy without permission from the father. But if a man decides that he does not want to be a father, not only can he not force her to have an abortion, but he can be forced to be held financially responsible for a child he does not want. Talk about inequality!

Breast cancer awareness campaign usually focuses on women. You may work with your local hospital(s) and/or women organization(s) on various activities such as exhibition, sports activity such as walk, concert,etc.

Did you know that Testicular Cancer is found in men generally between the ages of 25 - 35. With all the "awareness" about diffrerent cancers, do you know ANY 25 year old man who knows to be on the lookout for lumps the same way women are to check their breasts for lumps? I don't begrudge anyone for the research and awareness and fundraising and all efforts to beating cancer. But this compartmentalizing seems stupid to me. CANCER SUCKS. FIGHT CANCER. ALL OF IT.
