And don't cross the street without looking both ways.

And always wear your seatbelt

And wear your mittens and don't go splashing in puddles and don't throw pencils because you could put someone's eye out and then sorry won't be enough.

I was driving to the store yesterday and this driver totally sped past me and cut me off, almost caused a wreck. And on the back of that car? Pink ribbon. Well I got them back... that's right, now I'm in FAVOR of breast cancer.

And wear your helmet at all times.

And don't forget to wear a condom when shaking hands in case you touch yourself afterwards.

Prostate Cancer:
All men are at risk for developing prostate cancer. About one man in six will be diagnosed with prostate cancer during his lifetime, but only one man in 34 will die of this disease. About 80 percent of men who reach age 80 have prostate cancer.

Heart disease and stroke are the things you should be looking for. Keep those arteries clean.

Right, but men care more about our breasts

than about our hearts.

(I don't really mean that, I know how many of you are caring fellas, and want the best of health for your loved ones. I just couldn't resist.)

Yep - boobies are more important than a heart.

Sarge there are two kinds, one grows fast and comes early. Most men get the other kind, slow grow and other things will kill you before the Prostate Cancer of that kind. My dad had the later and chose no treatment, my brother had the former and chose surgery. Men should at least get a PSA over the age of 50.

Something new, growing and regrowing breasts, using the woman's own "stem-cell-enriched adipose (fat) tissue".

Quote:

He’s talking excitedly about how these women’s bodies led him and his team of scientists to a discovery in tissue engineering, a process that could well be one of the most momentous medical advances of the 21st century: the use of stem cells—specifically stem-cell-enriched adipose (fat) tissue—to enhance, heal, and rebuild injured or damaged organs.

This technology can be used to repair all sorts of things, but...

Quote:

It makes sense to apply Cytori’s technology to enhance breasts instead of, say, repair urinary sphincters as a strategic way to move the patented technology out of rats and into people as soon as possible. Hearts, kidneys, and even sphincters have to work in order for us to survive. But we can live just fine without breast tissue, and, outside of feeding offspring, breasts don’t have to do much. The fact is, the scientific and regulatory hurdles to getting Cytori’s cells into clinical use will be easier to clear for breasts than for other tissue: Breasts simply aren’t as necessary as other organs, so the bar for proving to regulators that the technology works will be lower.
