October is also Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Last year my posts during October focused more on breast cancer so here’s a look at some posts from the archives.
“Your Man Reminder” is an app and a campaign done by Rethink Breast Cancer. I find the campain, and the video (hello, shirtless men) highly refreshing compared to some of the other stuff that show up around this time of year.
Breast Cancer is Not a Pink Ribbon takes a look at the work of photographer David Jay. He also is working to put a new face to awareness campaigns around breast cancer; a raw and powerful one called “The SCAR Project.”
Last year my mother shared her story and our family history of breast cancer in a guest post.
I also watched and reviewed the documentary “Pink Ribbons, Inc.” in a two part series I called, “The Darker Side of Pink.” Part one. Part two.
Read about a woman who made the choice to undergo a double mastectomy and how it affected her life and her self image.
Some of the songs that helped me out when I needed it.
Last year’s “Bees in My Bonnet” wrapping up Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Unladylike Musings 
Thanks for helping to move the conversation out of trivialities.
