Yes, I agree, your thoughtful and thorough arguments* really do tie a bow around your opinions.

There are colors for all the cancers and some other diseases as well.

She paid me to say that.......


Need I say more? I didn't want to get smacked upside the haid!

Oops, I misunderstood the poll. I thought Earl just wanted our opinions. If I had realized it was going to be a debate, I would have headed for tall timber!

I too didnt want someone to change my mind. I did take some time to make up my mind after thoughtful consideration and discussion. Even as a breast cancer survivor who is grateful for the fund raising, I think the boobie braclets are not a good tool for teenage boys.

Man do I feel better! My boobies do too! Just checked.

Debate? What debate? I am a huge fan of debates and this thread is far from one. No one tried to change anyone's opinion's. If your referring to my comment about convincing you guys, it was a joke, nothing more. *See the "just kidding" part. Earl asked a question, we answered, that's it.

Just to clarify my position, my long explanations are merely my attempt to demonstrate the perspectives behind my vote. It was never my intention to change anyone's mind, everyone is wholly entitled to their opinions and their reasons behind them. Going back to the original post, the question was about whether they are appropriate and it is my considered opinion (laced with my marketing background) that yes, for the target audience, they are completely audience-appropriate to perform their intended objective.

To put it plainly, I feel that to deify or idolize one body part over another is every bit as ignorant as the children who seek only the "tee hee factor". It was my way of politely saying, "Get a grip!"

Breast cancer is certainly not funny nor to be taken lightly, however, considering the various developmental levels of children, this part of the campaign merely plants the seed that will ultimately mature along with the kids. What is the better alternative when addressing kids with the attention spans of fleas? Bring them a tumor to hold or transport them to view suffering patients?

Anyone who changed his/her mind after more consideration is the one who changed his/her mind. No one can do that to someone else.

Debate? No. Lively discussion with a lot of valuable & interesting exchanges? Yes.

*schlepping off to visit more suitable forums for me*

Was this a "shove it folks, see Ya" remark?

And what everyone is dying to know....what kind of a Forum would that be..
