Stop shoving this down my throat. Stop trying to guilt me into "walking" for a cure, "jogging" for a cure. "needlepointing" for a cure, "pogosticking" for a cure.

There are other cancer's out there like prostate and testicular cancer but you don't hear anything about them, the TV is to tied up with women crying about breast cancer.

Yeah its sad and a horrible disease but they make it out to be the Black Death and don't care about anyone else.
 
lol..PB

Thats a sad part thought that not much of the other cancers are being talked about. But again October is Breast cancer month
 
October IS Breast Cancer month, and not only women get it. You do have a mother, maybe a sister, or other female in your life. This is one charity that is NOT spending millions on advertising, unlike some others.

What about the various "marathons" on TV, Stem Cell Research, and Shriners, St. Jude Hospital, Farm Aid, PBS fundraising, etc.?

Check out my sig, and there are many other worthy causes that need help including saving our environment.

YES, unfortunately there are many other cancers which are not as highly focused on.
 
They spend MILLIONS on advertising...every other commercial is some commercial about Breat Cancer...who are you kidding.

NO, TD, those are FREE Public Service Announcements!

Just like clicking on the websites named in MY signature are FREE
 
Hopefully you won't ever lose someone you love dearly to breast cancer! What you call whinning is a group trying to get the word out to women that this cancer is DEADLY!!! Catching this early is the key and if this bothers you, turn the channel. This type of cancer is yet to skip a female in my family and any type of research that can be done to cure this is a good thing for me and my daughters. There's a whole lot more things to complain about in this world than someone bothering you trying to find a cure for a DEADLY disease.

Yes they need to focus on all types of cancer and try to find cures. Men and women alike can get breast cancer. Mainly a women's worry, but then there's always that small precentage, so I say go ahead and whine all you want to fund the research!
 
I know people who have had it, the more funding the better.
 
You miserable SOB. You better hope the title to this thread never comes true for you or anyone you love.

Get your head out of your ass.

October is Breast Cancer Month and even if it weren't, the saturation of events this month are worthy of respect.
 
Well Turbo diesel. I hope you are never faced with a wife , mother or sister. With breast cancer.Well I have, 5 years ago my wife got breast cancer. She took chemo. stem cell transplant the works. Today she is laying in a graveyard about 4 miles from my house. So I don't need some nut like you belly aching about to much TV time for breast cancer.
 
My grandma had breast cancer before I was born, but she survived it. My mom and my sisters are high risk for it, same with many other women out there, so the more money that goes into research the better.
 
Breast cancer is a serious issue, and i'm sure many people have either had a loved one or a friend with breast cancer. It's really not appropriate to joke about it.
 
"This type of cancer is yet to skip a female in my family"

Same here. EVERY female on my mom's side has had it with the exception of my generation. Me, my sisters, and my cousins, we're all waiting.....

:(
 
Why aren't there all these huge races for cures happening for other cancers? Because they don't have the money to waste on advertising and don't have all female network TV channels backing them to get more money. People die of prostate cancer and testicular cancer every year but you don't here about it because there aren't any all men channels to air constant commercials about it
 
Other type of cancer gets their share of funding. Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer in women. So there for it gets the most funding. And like Kat told you Those are free service announcements. But you are to busy flapping your gums to hear that. You must be one of those idiots from another forum where all they want to do is start trouble.And don't go into this routine about that's mu opinion. Sure it is but some opinions are better kept to ones self. And thats my opinion.
 
Quit whining and go start a foundation to fight prostate cancer. Or would you rather continuing making childish noises?

Alaska I agree with you. There is a foundation to fight Frostate cancer. And they recive a large amount of funding. And have their on announcements on TV. He is just a winny bag that has to have something to cry about. And because this was Breast Cancer month he picked that out.
 
Did I call any of you names? Are you unable to hear something you don't like without resorting to name calling? Gollum you're the idiot at least I can spell.
 
Gollum I am sorry to hear of your loss and hope they can find a cure for this terrible disease soon. Turbo do you have a mother, or sister, or aunt, or even daughters of your own. I can't believe you would be so insensitive to how devastating this cancer can be. I have seen public service announcements on prostate cancer and I know several men who have had successful treatments for it. Wonder where they received the money for the research? To say one should get more coverage or funding than the other is beyond believe. I truly hope you never have to learn the hard way how bad this can affect not just the person with the cancer, but the entire family. You need to step back and take a look at the whole picture, not just your little world. Check the spelling if you want, I try not to be that petty when discussing something as important as this.
 
I think this has gone on long enough.

Opinions have been stated and answered.


I see no point in continuing this argument.


TurboDiesel, personal attacks, i.e. calling a poster an idiot, will not be tolerated.
 
Paul, there is nothing useful in this thread. Please do us all a favor and purge it.

I am clicking the ignore button on TurboDiesel and suggest others do the same. His contempt for women is obvious and sad. Life must be terrible for him.
