Movember

Movember is weer voorbij.

“Every time I turn on a football game, I see players with pink shoelaces and pink gloves and pink towels, all promoting breast cancer awareness. This year the White House was bathed in pink light and even the fire trucks in my town got painted pink for the cause. Now I’m all for saving the world’s wonderful tata’s, but men have a cancer all of their own, and it unfortunately doesn’t get quite as much attention (I guess nobody wants to think about a guy’s junk when they’re peeling off the top of their yogurt.)
 
But Movember is an effort to change that. Started in 2003, Movember is an annual, month-long celebration of the mustache, highlighting men’s health issues – specifically prostate cancer, testicular cancer, and male depression. During the month of November, men grow a mustache and raise funds for charities like the Prostate Cancer Foundation and the Lance Armstrong Foundation (LIVESTRONG).”

Overigens schijnt het evenement in Nederland meer dan twee ton op te hebben geleverd voor het NKI.

PS. Zo’n snor jeukt als de neten, zeker in een warm en zweterig klimaat.

    Als ik mijn snor laat staan, lijk ik wel een bandlid van de Village People (of The Boys Town Gang). Ik zie dat dit niet alleen voor mij geldt…
