July 31 : National Commando Day


A no brainer...


Friday July 31, 2009 will be the first ever National Commando Day -- a day when people across the nation will support prostate cancer awareness by not wearing underwear to raise funding for the Prostate Conditions Education Council. 28,000 men die each year from prostate cancer, that’s one death every 19 minutes. 35% of men are more likely to get prostate cancer than women are to get breast cancer...yet there is little to no awareness about prostate cancer.

National Commando Day is when people will practice being unbound by their underwear together. A new level of freedom and unity will emerge knowing that others have also decided to free themselves. Going commando, being freed, is a great statement to make for prostate cancer which is a taboo subject for men. Even though prostate cancer does not affect you, it can very likely affect those who are close to you. So free yourself and make a stand...participate on National Commando Day.

Omen have Breast Cancer Wrsitbands, Alzeimers has walks, and men have "No underwaer day!" haha how childish.

But it is a good cause. And it is a VERY taboo subject. I have two coleagues that have had it. Good luck with your endevour. And I am in as well!

"and you can also visually show your support by donning a the blue prostate cancer ribbon ..."

"Commando" is my middle name! (Well, actually "Regimental" is my middle name because I prefer being referred to as "Reggie" rather than "Commy.") I'm in.
