The issue of breast cancer, at first glance may not seem too urgent to many males, but they all have mothers, wives, girlfriends, female friends and daughters. What is not commonly known is that “the link between bras and breast cancer is stronger than the link between smoking and lung cancer.” And based on research (cited below) the rate of cancer for women who never wore a bra was approximately same as the rate of chest cancer for men. I know many women who have has breast cancer, including myself, but I have never met a man who had a parallel cancer, which is not to say it does not occur. According to CancerAustralia.gov.au: “In 2022, it is estimated that 20,640 new cases of breast cancer will be diagnosed in Australia (212 males and 20,428 females). In 2022, it is estimated that a person has a 1 in 15 (or 6.7%) risk of being diagnosed with breast cancer by the age of 85 (1 in 668 or 0.15% for males and 1 in 8 or 13% for females).”
On International Women’s Day, breast cancer, rather than woke nonsense. should be an issue highlighted.
