- pitchblack16, on 07/30/2008, -9/+4See Pamela's fake boobies are not at any more risk than she would normally have, hence, fake boobies are good, not that i mind any boobies for that matter.
- Murdats, on 07/31/2008, -1/+9except they dont look attractive at all, hence, fake boobies suck because they ruin perfectly good boobies for the misconception that it is only size that matters.
- innocentsinner, on 07/31/2008, -3/+2False. There are some fantastic examples of fake breasts out there. And some very unattractive natural breasts.
Note: Pamela's are not fantastic examples. - estacado, on 07/31/2008, -2/+2At first, I was like you too. I felt that fake boobs are ugly no matter what. But after watching a good share of porn, I must that some fake boobs are really well done. It might be rare, but some of them are really beautiful. I like the ones on Jenni Lee and Lani Lane.
- innocentsinner, on 07/31/2008, -0/+3Tera Patrick's are great:

For a laughably bad example, Google "Francine Dee"
Most fake breasts look amazing underneath clothes, though, which is where you'll see them 95% of the time. Still, it's no fun to unwrap and see something like Francine Dee's :P - jzuska, on 07/31/2008, -2/+3I love the fake look. I love the fake feel.
I love em. I just cant stress this enough.
If you're not hot get fakies.

- sgtbutterscotch, on 07/30/2008, -0/+7I thought there would be a myth about men not being able to get it, but alas, it is possible although very rare.
- jtesta19, on 07/30/2008, -7/+6Pam's got some great melons
- DiggieDarko, on 07/30/2008, -1/+5"Women with breast implants are at no greater risk of getting breast cancer" Woo Hoo! I feel like Kenny in the "Heavy Metal' SP remake.
- fpaudon, on 07/31/2008, -1/+15Seriously, the only reason this got to the front page was because the title had the word "breast" in it
- CrimsonBlur, on 07/31/2008, -0/+6Close, but I think the real reason is because it has Pamela Anderson's huge rack as the thumbnail.
- sadisticmind, on 07/31/2008, -0/+1funny....thats the same reason i dugg you up.
...breast *giggles like a school girl*
- sarchosis, on 07/31/2008, -2/+2Honey, I just want to give you a mammogram!
- Pradsy, on 07/31/2008, -3/+2I think its men-kind that should be worried more. We are the ones who enjoy them the most.
- Zeonick, on 07/31/2008, -2/+5FACT: I will give free breast exams.
- seantubridy, on 07/31/2008, -0/+12"Former Playboy model Pamela Anderson has admitted to having breast implants." Breaking news here.
- galvo, on 07/31/2008, -1/+4FREE MAMMOGRAMS HERE!
- tarley, on 07/31/2008, -2/+4Actual myth number 26: Self breast exams for lumps dont reduce breast cancer risk
source: http://www.healthnewstrack.com/health-news-595.htm ...
That said - I'm always willing to try it for you ;) - CrimsonBlur, on 07/31/2008, -1/+4Hold the presses! Pamela Anderson has admitted to getting breast implants? When did this happen? I thought for sure those were real...
- KennMac, on 07/31/2008, -0/+1Dugg for the benefit of boobies.
- johnj21, on 07/31/2008, -3/+3Buried for stupid grammar
- 350Zed, on 07/31/2008, -1/+2Buried "cause" the Digger is illiterate.
- Zachariah, on 07/31/2008, -0/+1It's just a missing apostrophe.
- 350Zed, on 07/31/2008, -1/+2Buried "cause" the Digger is illiterate.
- abdo, on 07/31/2008, -0/+10That picture makes this issue less serious than it actually is.
- GDOG5, on 07/31/2008, -1/+1ehhhhh. I just scanned the title and thought it was an article of how someone had spotted a lump of breast cancer on Pamela's *****. That's what it looked like with the whole zoomed in section in the picture. I was slightly off.
- PDF84, on 07/31/2008, -1/+4Boobs... They can cure everything except themselves.. sigh.
- oakj423, on 07/31/2008, -4/+2buried for next/previous buttons on the article not being buttons - you have to click the link below them...horrible design
- Natitude, on 07/31/2008, -1/+2Yeah bury it for the horrible design. Don't vote it up cause it's important information or anything... that would just be silly and not at all the point of digg.
/sarcasm
- Natitude, on 07/31/2008, -1/+2Yeah bury it for the horrible design. Don't vote it up cause it's important information or anything... that would just be silly and not at all the point of digg.
- shadowmoose, on 07/31/2008, -3/+1Hasn't affected me yet.
- JayKeaton, on 07/31/2008, -0/+5These are not myths at all. This is just a list of facts (and a few opinions) about breast cancer in dot points, except instead of dot points they put "MYTH" in front of each one. Writing "MYTH" in front of just any old statement does not make it an established myth and does not make the author a myth buster.
- plundstedt, on 07/31/2008, -1/+2"Pamela Anderson has admitted to having breast implants"
Well no ***** *****. - ieee, on 07/31/2008, -1/+2If you want to reduce your chances for breast or prostate cancer reduce your use of dairy products. This book by a scientist who caught breast cancer and who saved herself by using her science training to evaluate the research did the same:
http://tinyurl.com/5euwsd - scratend0788, on 07/31/2008, -2/+1why is there so much hype arround breast cancer with so many other types of equaly common cancers?
- tresvold, on 07/31/2008, -1/+3There is so much hype because so many women have been touched by Breast Cancer one way or another whether they have a family member diagnosed, a friend, co-worker or themselves etc It is a reality that it is killing more women then it should, my mom passed away from Breast Cancer just 8 months ago, it has become a reality to me, i recommend thinking about who you know who has been touched by Breast Cancer in some way, maybe you will see it in a different light also.
- basye, on 07/31/2008, -0/+5Damn, I wish my two rounds with BC was all hype.
- monicaandreescu, on 07/31/2008, -4/+1a story on boobies should always be dugged
- ScrewedThePooch, on 07/31/2008, -1/+1I would have dugg this, but a five page list for 25 items is *****.
- deviouskoopa, on 07/31/2008, -0/+2Somehow I have the feeling Diggers will learn nothing about breast cancer and more about fake boobs.
- djepik, on 07/31/2008, -0/+1Myth 26: breast cancer is the only type of cancer.
Why is it that breast cancer gets all the attention when there are dozens of other types?- maffiou, on 07/31/2008, -1/+3Do you know another cancer that has such a high incidence in the population ? 1 in 8 women will have breast cancer at some point in their life...
Raising awareness is important...
In comparison, testicular cancer (which I know about thanks to my own personnal experience) affects 1 or 2% of the male population... - djepik, on 07/31/2008, -0/+1I looked it up. And Holy *****.
Prostate cancer affects 1 in 6 men. I don't know if that means that "1 in 6 guys will know a guy who knows a guy who has it" but I don't think it does.
It is also the "most common non-skin cancer in America"
http://www.prostatecancerfoundation.org/site/c.itI ...
I really think that "Breast Cancer Awareness" has reached a satruation point. I really don't think there is anybody in North America who doesn't know that Breast cancer a) exists b) sucks and c) is common.
So anyway, apparently 7 guys who made comments on this page will have prostate cancer at one point in their life. Wow.

- dxgg, on 07/31/2008, -0/+3Breast cancer is serious, boys. Deadly serious. Empathize a little, will you?
- shedtroll, on 07/31/2008, -2/+3We do, MEN can get breast cancer aswell as women!!!
- shedtroll, on 07/31/2008, -0/+6MEN can get breast cancer aswell as women!!! Yeah, you heard me. WE GUYS ARE AT RISK!
- scratend0788, on 07/31/2008, -1/+0i didn't mean to offend, i guess i'm not very well read on the topic, thanks for the replies though
