Of course everyone should do their best to maintain good health and there are a great many public awareness campaigns that remind us of that.
Nevertheless, because of historic discrimination, a lot of women’s health issues are presented as a Civil Rights struggle and exclude men. Certainly, I want to get in on lovingly screening women’s boobs and making them feel safe.

Thanks for raising awareness for Movember. Preventive health is a difficult thing to achieve with men and Movember is an awesome way to raise awareness for testicular cancer and prostate cancer. Men, Grow a Mo and then head tot he doctor for a regular check up.
