Why is there a march for breast cancer but no march for testicular cancer?
Testicular cancer kills more people than breast cancer, yet nobody does fundraisers in the same way, ever.
Is this just a case of stereotyping all men as fearless warriors and all women as sheltered wallflowers? Why are women valued more than men in our society?
Sometimes I hate this planet.

When was the last time you heard a man question if he had a problem with his testicles?
Women are more open with discussing and caring about their breasts than men are of their testicles. Women will go to regular check ups to make sure they are still fine while men tend to avoid such things. Men, over all, are more arrogant and stupid when it comes to their well being. Many men refuse to get their prostate checked even if they had some symptoms as they are either too shy or too arrogant to be open about discussing their reproductive organs with a doctor.
if it is a gigantic horrible typo mah bad

That, and I've heard women openly laugh at testicular cancer. Not teenage girls, not kids giggling at the mention of genitalia, women. As well, a woman with breast cancer isn't considered "half a woman" is she? People take breast cancer more seriously than testicular cancer. Regardless of which affects more people, they are both serious.
I do not want to live in a flat chested society.
Because a lot of men are pervs and a man's nutsack isn't something that can be exploited like a woman's breasts are.

I've always wondered the same thing. Why don't people care about any other cancer? People only care about breast cancer.

Because tits sell. You see in those companies doing these promotions in which they pledge to donate part of a product's profits to breast cancer foundations (I imagine that amount is very, very small, but they'll never let you know that). It's like Playboy without the nudity.
