    I was actually just making a joke out of it! This lady seemed to know so much about anatomy as to point out that the prostate is not an organ...that it is a gland. I found it funny that with such knowledge when she mentioned "testicles" she didn't even know how to spell it. I was using humor...you know...joking! No, I'm not fixated on them! Actually anyone who even clicked to look at this discussion must have a little curiosity about the topic..

    The thing is men have alot higher chance of getting prostate cancer than women do getting breast cancer but you never hear anything promoting prostate cancer awareness. Heck even the players of the NFL wear pink for an enitre month for breast cancer awareness month but there wouldn't be an NFL if it wasn't for male fans.

    There's an entire month dedicated to prostate awareness... It's called Movember... Not sure if you heard of it, but it's huge in Canada and is growing by leaps and bounds every year.

    I hear it's big in Australia too. I only knew about it because a physics professor here does it. I know others that do "No Shave November" but I'm not sure that's specifically for cancer awareness.

    As a mother of a child that has battled cancer 2x in less than 3 years...ALL CANCERS SUCK! Breast cancer seems to get the most recognition but there are so many WARRIORS fighting all types of this horrible monster. Children don't get any recognition. Does anyone even know that SEPTEMBER is CHILDHOOD CANCER AWARENESS MONTH AND THE COLOR IS GOLD. I get asked all the time if I'm supporting Troops when I wear my GOLD ribbon. So as far as I'm concerned, ALL CANCERS should be recognized but they aren't and it's not fair...nothing with this MONSTER is fair!!!!

    I agree. All cancers should be recognized. My friend's mother has been battling non-smoker's lung cancer for the last three years. Lung cancer gets little research and support because most of the people who get is are smokers, which gives the impression that it's all the patient's fault. Lung cancer is actually one of the deadliest cancers out there.

    Yes, it's hilarious that she doesn't know how to spell it. It's not like she could have made a simple typo or anything!

    Thanks for posting this pic!! I wanted to post one, but don't remember how. Yeppers...they are two different organs!! Who wouldda thunk it?? :laugh:

    Note though...men do get testicular cancer and should do monthly checks just like women are supposed to do. However...the doc has to check a prostate!!

    I don't have the study, but I heard that gay men tend to catch prostate cancer earlier than other men because of the...attention paid to the prostate during...fun times with their partner. So, yes, see a doc, also, men, play with your prostate, it's fun times.

    Hey guys, my name is Amber. Some o fyu will have seen the thread I posted earlier which got deleted. I just want o let you guys in on a bit of information. I am a loyal and faithful christian to the Lord, and Jesus christ and also an animal lover. This is why I am a vegetabletarian. There is a girl on this site who goes by the name Sophiebee92. Please do not be friends with her. She is a prostitute. Last year my bf made 1 million dollars reviewing and directing pornos. And he says he has seen her in one. Also I am on this site to be honest and respectful so it makes me mad when people lie about their bodies. This girl 100% has fake boobs, I can tell. Plus my dad is one of the top 3 plastic surgeons in the country and he told me. She is also on steriods, that is how she has muscles. I respectfully warn all of you that she has sold these to, please don't take them. Having muscle kills girls.

    Plus what cheerleader and blonde girl like her have you ever seen who is not a complete *****. It is obvious that the only reason she is on this site is to sell her body. Now that is not ok with me. If you want a friend like her just go to the grocery store and by yourself a Barbie doll, its the same thing!!

    Also I want to warn you about some of her other friends too. One of them personally told me in a pm that her family are thieves. Another one called me a ***** and two of them were in pornons with her. Some o fthe most insulting comments were from cannonsky, delco, glamour60xtreme, becca_daniel, grapenutsf to name a few! All because I tried to give a little constructive criticism

    Also I urge you guys to please help me get her banned. Thank you and I hope you have a pleasant evening!!

    It is very sad on some obits it will say "she/he was a non-smoker who died of lung cancer." That is the stigma behind it now days.
