a user named "mongrel" would have that covered, mate!
Good post, by the way.

I didn't want to see that picture. ):
But I agree with your message very much! Breast cancer's another topic like this - all this pink ribbons and running marathons for your mum/gran/sister who died of it. Men get it too but the public doesn't seem to care.
while waiting for a mammogram some time ago was a young man having to have one. He couldn't help himself screaming in pain. One of the nurses was almost in tears at his plight - and you can imagine how hard a cancer nurse has to be.
ETA: I don't think it's so much that people don't care its that people simply don't know. I didn't know until that day and when I tell that story (not very often) the response is usually the same.

The incidence is lower in men isn't it?
But of course there's prostate and teticular cancer. Where's David Prowse banging the drum?

Boohoohoo. So organise a marathon, they don't organise themselves.

Funnily enough...
this was exactly what I thought when I heard this statistic. Glad you put it into a picture. Have a click for your troubles.
