Canadian women are being asked to bare their breasts online in a brazenly novel campaign meant to keep them cancer-free. Hundreds of women have already uploaded their images -- including at least 20 breast cancer survivors who have had visible mastectomies. "This is a creative, different, bold, a bit in-your-face way of getting young women's attention," M.J. DeCouteau, executive director at Rethink Breast Cancer told Reuters. "I wouldn't be surprised if we get a lot of women doing it." Rethink, a breast-cancer charity for young people, is launching the campaign to try to educate young women about breast cancer to make them more aware, but also to take some of the fear away.

Is it wrong for me to like those better than the normal ones?

Although this is a robust idea, I dont feel right about it. It feels awkward and too explicit.

I'm more surprised that nobody posted:

"Pictures or it never happened"

There were a few nice "fun bags" on the wall. I really don't see how this would help breast cancer or awareness or what ever. Women, for the most part... nevermind.

two causes I put my full support behind, curing breast cancer, and women showing me their boobies

I didn't read the article, but hopefully they are donating all of the ad revenue generated by that site to fighting breast cancer.

Maybe it's just me, but "boobywall" doesn't really give off the bold image I feel like they are trying to go for here...

Only on the internet could people get excited about the combination of breasts + cancer.

Thinks it over... Naaaa moving on...

I'd love to see some market research on this site. I can almost beyond a shadow of a doubt say that the overwhelming majority of visitors are men... men looking for nudity. I don't see how this does anything for the cause. But like I said, I'd love to see the numbers.

I don't know about anyone else, but this disgusts me because my Mom is a breast cancer survivor.
