Pink ribbon run sounds ghahy,and breasts have always been a good way to attract people,and guys money spends just like girls money so here we go...

Erm... Would someone explain 'run for the rack'?

I guess my ignorance has nothing to do with being male since oxbow came up with it; so is it something to do with my being a Brit? Or am I just naive?

This thread caught my eye because my foster daughter is undergoing breast surgery for cancer this evening.

Which is how it caught my curiosity.

Which is why I'm now confused!

:?

Rack, is an American term for a pair of Breast's, as in "she's got a nice rack"

don't feel bad, I've been listening to The Who for 25 years and I just recently found out that a lorry is a truck.

Cheers Oxbow. I feel somehow more complete now for knowing that. :D

By the way, to complete your education and to return the favour, a truck is only a 'lorry' when you are in the south of England. In the north of England a truck is a 'waggon'. It is one of the ways British tribes learn to distrust each other.

okay I got a couple of slaps for my name ideas
Oxbow, those were friendly little "slaps!" I don't think any of us were in a huff. But it really was not that long ago that breasts and women's issues were something one didn't talk about, except in discreet, low tones.

And personally, if I had breast cancer, I don't know how I'd feel about using coarse slang to promote my cause. And if you haven't had someone in power make suggestive comments about your body, then I don't think I can explain how, somewhere in the heart of me, that there is a big difference between casual talk between friends, and using the same words as the official name of a promotional event.

So, to clarify: To me, yes, those titles are all quite funny. At a bar or coffee shop. Just not for the real, official events .

Just my humble opinion.

MZ33, I was cool with it and kind of expected it and I did take it as friendly so don't worry about that.
I just thought that it was funny that I was a little apprehensive about even asking that question because I didn't want to come across as sexist and Avon has a big pair of inflateable boob's as the waypoint for thier BC walk.
I have a Mom, 2 sisters, wife, and daughter and would have to slap the guy to sleep that spoke of them in a derogatory manner,so I am with you there.
Most of my clients are women and 80% of them are lesbians and they talk like I'm not even there so I hear alot of "girl talk" and they think it's funny when they embarrass me.
I'll PM you a funny story

I do know what it's like to have someone in power comment on my body
I have a Wife :lol:
