Oh my! Oh woe! Last year it was the "bra color" so called breast cancer awareness. Now it's the "fruit" breast cancer awareness. Not even remotely related to cancer, or breasts for the reason (unless you can consider pear and apple and avocados and such a type of breast shape, but what do you do with raspberries and grapes?), just "for fun" and "to confuse guys". What does "confusing guys" have to do with breast cancer awareness?
From the point of view of a breast cancer survivor, this is so insensitive that it's beyond words. People with empty minds not able to see better than Charlie Sheen's last stunt and the last "survivor" and "dancing with the stars" are flocking in. Some are in such a hurry to join this game, that not only didn't realize they are not supposed to post on the event's page, just in the status, but some got so carried by the wave that they are still in the "bra color" stage and post "zebra print" instead of fruits. And then you'll have women all over crying out loud that they are objectified and considered empty-headed ninnies.
This time I got so upset tht I started a Facebook event of my own.
It's not about breast cancer awareness. It's not about weird, "fun" statuses. It's about getting as many participants as possible by the end of May then challenges the big dudes, like mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Donald Trump, ya know? to donate $1 for each participant to a non-profit that provides financial help to breast cancer patients who cannot afford treatment.
Join in this effort!
