LADY GODIVA sans hair would have been a more effective imagicon - Lady Godiva had lots of hair. More than Mona.
My views toward the ubiquitous pink ribbon campaigns have been sharply affected by the recent film “PINK RIBBONS, INC” which succinctly reveals the corporate greed that lurks behind the scenes of cancer walks and pink ribbon cancer promotions. I even know one cancer survivor who has completely avoided falling into the pink ribbon trap. She feels the pink ribbon money raising campaigns are vulgar and only perpetuate the myth that women with breast cancer are helpless victims who can only be helped by corporate sponsorship and 5k runs.The other day I opened a can of Campbell’s soup and it had some sort of exciting pink ribbon breast cancer challenge on the pop top lid…how strange - but I do know that many cancer families get comfort from the ubiquitous pink ribbons…pink ribbons on everything!
