    Whoa did not know that. There certainly needs to be more awareness and understanding of male bc. Thank you for sharing.

    Yes - it is sad that there is still such a stigma for men with BC .... but back in the 90s - VERY few would have heard that men got BC as well ..... matter of fact - I don't think they were making Women's BC very aware, either!! :(
