Everyone (men too!) can support the fight against heart disease in women by wearing red on February 2, 2007 ? National Wear Red DaySM. It's a simple, powerful way to raise awareness of heart disease and stroke. By joining together with thousands of women, companies and organizations, and cities across America, you'll help the American Heart association support ongoing research and education about women and heart disease.

I will be wearing red tomorrow. Request ATOT members to do the same.

That's what I thought when I read the topic summary.

Women attacks in 2004 - 42.1 million
Women attacks in 2004 - 461,200

Women have it slightly higher, but its still close to evenly split. Not sure why they need to break up this awareness among genders.

I love how there is a huge emphasis on breast cancer, but prostate cancer being more prevalent is not as hyped up. I think as a society we empathize/sympathize more for the suffering of women.

Equality, but only when females benefit from it. Equal pay, but not the same working hours.
