That's absolutely brutal. Has society sunk to such a level that we have to resort to "T&A" to raise awareness/funds too? What next? Topless bake sales to raise money for our schools?

Seriously. That video is insulting. It's embarrassing to think that a charitable organization has had to stoop that low.


Yes, very seriously.

Breast cancer is brutal. This is not.

I just heard on the news that in LA, a skydiving team of 128 women made a formation, to get in the Guiness Book of Records AND raised $900,000 for Breastcancer research.

It might not be Canadian, but pretty damned good none-the-less!

That's excellent! AND much more respectable, IMHO.

Most people do not want the facts, they do not want to see the brutal facts of the disease.


Well I guess they'll have to grow up and learn to deal with it.

$1:
All this attention helps to bring this cause to a level that your average person can relate to.


The average person? So you have to give the boys a chubby to raise money and awareness. Niiiiiiiiice. :roll: I think maybe a few people should look past the "sex sells" angle and actually come up with some creative campaigns. Something besides sex that the "average" person can relate to.

Personally, I surround myself with people who can think outside the pool party/bouncing boobs box.

Im sure your shuffle board and bridge parties off the hook wildrosegirl. :roll:

Whats wrong with a little sex advertising? There is nothing wrong with the human body, its not disrespectful or obscene. Sometimes I think people can be too prudish for their own good.

Well it didn't give me a chubby and it lost all credibility when she flashed her tits at the end. That made me think this has more to do with advancing her career.

Our local CO-OP raised $5000 letting people come and paint this building and they were all clothed. :lol:

Nice kindergarten come back.


No there isn't anything wrong with the human body. Degrading yourself to get attention is.

At least they catch your attention with the ad. So many people are so scatterbrained with their 1.2 second attention span, they have to take extra measures to get your attention and keep it. I agree, Bren, at least they were using real people and not a cast and crew of Hollywood to sell the pitch. Yep, nothing fake in that ad...

It is a very serious issue and any attention that is brought to it with good intentions is okay in my book. You see worse in the 9:00 TV broadcast block.

You still havent explained how she is degrading herself. Just being naked publicly isnt degrading, its just being naked. Scoffing at her and dismissing the message because you can see her breasts is quite prudish. I personnaly dont want to sit up in my high tower and judge who's message is better or worse. If it brings awarness, support or captial to the cause I say do it.

Oh and I'm sure when ancient man walked around naked all day that was degrading as well. :roll: Some people are more for free and comfortable with her bodies then others, I know that if I could get away with it I would walk around in the summer butt ass naked, Its not like people have never seen a human body before. Plus I could use a tan...

And the last time I checked someone showing off their boobs for a breast cancer wasn't degrading.

Shows what you know Pyra, it wasnt degrading until Adam and Eve ate the apple of knowledge. Duh! They should be covered up at all times, unless our husband wants to have sex, that is the way Allah wants it! [/sarcasm]
