I find it really horrible that all these breast cancer awareness people aren't even aware of how to diagnose breast cancer. Well, I still don't know, because all the campaigns selling pink ribbons and stuff still don't give anyone any idea of how to know they have it and what are the main causes of it
You sure?  I mean, it's fairly common knowledge that you have to look around for bumps and stuff.

looking for bumps that are on bumps seems too simple.

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Yeah, it's basically the same as self-checking for testicular cancer.

It is, I think, but I also thought there's more to it than bumps - like knowing what kind of bumps or whatever? I have a friend who have freaked out several times after finding bumps in her breasts, yet none of the times it was cancer. Bumps in bumps might not means anything, after all.

Of course, since my friend is both educated nurse and somewhat of a minor hypochondriac, I guess she should have known, or at least found out after the first time, if there was any way of differencing good bumps from bad bumps from feeling them.

Oh, and lastly: Bumpetybump.

Yeah, they could just be cysts or even a benign tumour.  But if it's growing, it's definitely worth getting checked.
