so what's with this crock?

there are 4x more breast cancer commercials in any given hour of tv. there are not "loads" of prostate cancer commercials.

 

i've seen them quite a bit, mainly during sports and such. again, you can't get mad a feminists for that. it's far more than feminism, did you even read what i wrote about the market forces behind it, or are you being deliberately obtuse to continue a pointless battle. until men start spending money on their prostates, you're not going to see the people looking for R&D money. men can be a intractable bunch.

 

mamakcita, it's a chicken and egg argument and i don't really waste my time on such things.

do women spend so much money on health care because there's so many commercials directed at them?
or are there so many commercials because women spend so much money on health care?

what came first, the chicken or the egg?

men don't spend as much money and there aren't as many commercials.

hmmm i wonder what would happen if you increase the commercials.

 

well, see to it. women were spending loads of money on health care LONG before the commercials. so i guess the egg DID come before the chicken. (i can even back that up with articles if you like, lol) you can complain all you like, but it's a simple truth.

 

sure i'd love to read them.

 

about the egg coming before the chicken? it's common knowledge.

"server not found"

 

dammit. okay, go to ask.com and enter the question "how often do men visit the doctor?" i can't copy and paste for some reason.

 

ive seen a fair number of ads about prostate and colo-rectal cancer
its just damn hard to make "let some strange person shove a lubed, gloved finger up your ass and poke around" all that enticing

 

and men in particular don't like to hear about it when they're having a good time. "hey guys! it's time to have a strange man ram something up your butt and rip off a piece of your prostate!" not sexy. i think if you want men to start really taking care of their prostate exams there needs to be a movement to start recruiting loads of gorgeous women into the practice. imagine it: men going in droves and buddy groups to get their prostates checked "dude, she was SO INTO ME" AND gorgeous women not having to get married to sponge off some guy. the anti-female-anything people could finally be satisfied about something.

 

Considering how many times my wife has to ask before the garbage actually makes it out the door, I'm not surprised that they don't waste money on nagging men.

Considering that everything I say to my wife is remembered (to be pulled out at a most inconvenient time), I doubt that women need as many health reminders as they are given.

 

yeah, it's pretty fucking aggravating to constantly be reminded that my tits are rotting off that my tits, as opposed to my head, heart and whatever else, are my most important body part. hey! let's all go for a walk.

 

it's aggravating when i hear girls constantly complain that they can't find a "good, decent man" while they're surrounded by such, and then throw themselves at an asshole with a corvette or porsche.

and that's 99% of'em.

 

off topic. restrain yourself.

 

it's my topic

i'll say whatever i want in it

 

no, you can't. start a new one if you want. in fact, i think i'll close this one. it has run it's course.
