Your entries are addictive, can't wait to see more in the future. :)<br /><br />I agree about the breast cancer model wholeheartedly. BC isn't nearly the biggest medical danger for women, and it's not the most lethal form of cancer we face. Also, I feel like it bolsters the attitude that our boobs are our most important part by far, and/or that they're required in order for us to be "real" women & using them is mandatory for "real" motherhood.<br /><br />I think it'd be better if Breyer focused on abuse, both donating to small orgs as funds go a much longer way with them, <i>and</i> putting basic-yet-useful info in RR boxes as part of letting collectors know about the SR. Something like that seems like it would help a lot more people than just yet another drop in the giant BC bucket...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03601530372895286420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7371380495065351450.post-55756828136752801762009-12-28T12:30:56.494-05:002009-12-28T12:30:56.494-05:00Ditto about the cancer horse.

I'm seriously disappointed that the red dun Lady Phase--a mold/color combination for which I've literally been praying for decades--is glossy. I don't like gloss on the more modern molds. Running Mare, yes; Lady Phase, not so much. <br /><br />I love the TH Shires, though. This is the first TH in which I'm actually tempted to participate. I figure if I hate the surprise model, I'll sell it and get some of that moolah back, right?Little Black Carhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14313164876855565140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7371380495065351450.post-85180180914503237392009-12-24T21:58:27.008-05:002009-12-24T21:58:27.008-05:00Agreed.

Unfortunately BC has a better PR department. *sigh* It's about time some of the other cancers got the same sort of support.<br /><br />(and this coming from someone who has an incredibly SCARY family history of BC!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7371380495065351450.post-10589403674016634362009-12-24T12:53:43.529-05:002009-12-24T12:53:43.529-05:00I completely agree about the cancer model.

I worked at an oncology clinic for several years, and the less glamorous forms of cancer (like rectal/anal, colon, pancreatic, or renal) have almost no advocacy groups. It makes sense - butt cancer is a lot less palatable than boob cancer to the general public. Should I ever find myself with time not spent working or sleeping, I'll be seeing what I can do to help some of these less publicized diagnoses.Erin Corbetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07728820309403797183noreply@blogger.com
