With pink helmets, cleats, jerseys, etc.

1 in 8 women will have breast cancer, but



1 in 5 men will have Prostate cancer.

Why are my tax dollars supporting this obvious war on men?

There should be a finger in the butt sticker for prostate awareness.

Realtalk though, Susan G Komen Foundation is the most successful scam out there.

This is one of the most inaccurate analogies I've ever seen -- and I've debated Young Earth Creationists.

You can't possibly think a charity is comparable to a religion.

Titties are more appealing than prostates.

I think that almost all men, if they become old enough, will develop some kind of prostate cancer. Usually the treatment for it would kill them quicker than the cancer itself so we shrug it off like a baw

Komen is awful. Truly. They may have started out with good attentions but it's a clusterfrick of a money grab now. I have friends who are breast cancer survivors who benefitted far more from smaller, more local breast cancer awareness folks.

And we should be doing more to educate people on heart disease which I believe is #1 despite gender.

I think they should drop the pink and have pics of titties on the helmets.

Incorrect! ALL men will have prostate cancer.
I'm old enough to have seen men suffer and die from it. My Dad had it at the same time as two co-workers. They are both dead, he was lucky.
My FIL had it but they said he would die from something else first. He did, melanoma got him.

Cancer is no joke! As you age make sure to get tested!!

Everyone wants to save titties.
No one cares about dudes buttholes. In fact, if you asked a dude with prostate cancer if he would cure prostate cancer or save boobs, he will still choose boobs. And he has chosen correctly.

A lot of the money donated to Susan G. Komen actually goes to fund planned parenthood and doesn't touch cancer research at all. If you want money to go toward cancer research, send it to the American Cancer Society or even St Jude Children's Research Hospital.
