>>330442 Right and wrong, but most probably a mysoginist in any event. Breast cancer is the fifth leading cause of death among adult women. It killed 42,000 women in 2002. This is not a small number. Yes, men can also get cancer. We cannot examine our own prostates (at least I haven't found a way) that's why no one tells us to examine them. Any Sex-ed class worth a shit should have shown you how to check for testicular cancer and what to keep an eye out for. More over, if you combine testicular cancer with prostate cancer, you get fewer deathes than breast cancer alone (~35,000 for prostate/testicular to 42,000 for breast). Suggesting people remain ignorant about their health (as you obviously are by suggesting we can check ourselves for prostate cancer) is about as assinine and foolish as it gets, even on 4chan. STFU and DIAF.
Oh and look, sources, so you know that, unlike other people in this thread, I'm not pulling numbers out of my fucking ass and making shit up.
