“I’d wager testicular cancer, which is just as prevalent as breast
cancer, is probably just as bad for employment prospects. Not that I
have proof, but this article did nothing to provide that either.”
Shorter version: O NOEZ AN ARTICLE THAT ONLY IS ABOUT WIMMINZ! WHAT ABOUT TEH MENZ? I mean, I don’t have any actual numbers or anything but because they mention BOOBIES I get to mention TESTICLES!
Seriously, this article makes me mad. Most women who are diagnosed with breast cancer are already older to begin with and are starting to look disposable in today’s market. OTOH I have seen many cases where men who had prostate surgery are ENCOURAGED to go back to work, rally, and “bounce back” much to the cheers of all–my own Dad included. Sick woman=go the fuck away, we don’t want to know about it, go knit socks for your grandkids. Sick man=beat that cancer, bro! Get back in the game! Show the world how virile you still are…
