As someone near and dear to RS once pointed out after researching the data… more money is spent on breast cancer research annually than all mens and childrens cancers combined. It has become an industry unto itself bent on shaming people – specifically men – into supporting “the cause.” They have manipulated a tragic disease into a politically correct feminist rallying point.

In practical terms, the above means that the scientist researching breast cancer may fly across country, on expenses, to a seminar with a suitcase full of expensive Pink Ribbon magnets to hand out to participants. Meanwhile the guy researching juvenile spinal cancer would have to drive his clunker across country on his own dime if the resources were even available to hold a medical seminar on his research,

I don’t write many diaries these days. When I do, it’s usually to get stuff off my chest. Yours is better.

I know makeup and all that stuff is supposed to help women look beautiful but since I don’t wear makeup now, I never ever will. You’ll just have to look, or not, at my ugly old visage just the way it is.

That nut would have been harder to crack I imagine in a more liberal city, like say San Francisco. I also think the backlash from PP, or at least their supporters against an Abby Johnson would be more shrill than a restraining order.

in one of you diaries I mentioned my take on abortion and how I would write about it someday. That someday came when I stumbled across Abby’s story Monday. I think it’s great she went from director of a PP clinic to a member of an organization protesting that clinic.

God truly does work in mysterious ways, doesn’t He?

Thank you for commenting and recommending, and thanks to all who have commented, recommended, or just simply read this diary. The more that comes out about what truly motivates PP the better.

I’ll look into that connection. It may be possible SGKF might have fallen for PP’s outer mask, as Abby Johnson did at first when she became the director of the Texas clinic. After all, they do offer breast cancer screenings, something the SGKF is definitely interested in. Perhaps they need to become aware of Johnson’s story about what goes on in the inner offices.

Thank you for that. The more PP is exposed as a promoter of abortion above all else, the better. Undermining parental influence is just another staw that will hopefully break that camel’s back.

Your encouragement is invaluable. In my 8 months here I’ve written only 3 diaries, mostly because other ideas I’ve had for one are covered far better by more experienced authors. This story just pushed the right button, and I felt I had to air out my suspicions about PP.

it would be great if Abby’s story inspired others to come out and corroborate her story. I really doubt the Bryan, TX clinic is the only one encouraging their staff to promote abortion above all else in the name of profit.

the conservative city that it is. I’m sure it was easier to do a 180 than to stick with PP.

But like Abby’s story it got overlooked in all the election coverage. The use of fetal cells in certain cosmetics was unknown to me until I read your diary today. Because of that, I urge those of you who have read and recommended my diary to give Steph’s a look.
