The teams showing support so why not the fans too. My girlfriends mother is recovering (thankfully) from breast cancer.

My grandpa, step-mom, & friend's dad all died from cancer. Hope she beats it. God bless.

Done!

Even though I think the ribbons are a marketing scheme (google) the cause is at least legit. Done.

Didn't have to change my title though! ha

Love me some boobies.

Highly doubt I'll get breast cancer so I'm not too interested in this cause. If you have a prostate or testicular cancer ribbon, I'll put that as my avatar.

Exactly. Every product you can think of now comes in pink to support breast cancer, but the proceeds from many of these products don't even fund breast cancer research. Like these avatars, they just "raise awareness."

I hate to be the cynical one, but I don't think breast cancer needs any more help with raising awareness. You see it everywhere, and not just in October.

Share the spotlight, breast cancer! You're not the only disease out there, even if you are the most marketable.

There was a debate about this in one of my classes. Breast cancer separates itself in other diseases becasue it just happens to people for no apparent reason other than genes (like testicular cancer). Sure heart disease kills more but this disease is often a result of a habit or behavior like lung, sometimes liver, mouth and skin etc. While I do agree the situation has been taken advantage of, it's really not hurting me any or costing me anything to change my avatar to support something that harms something I love so much...women that is.
