What’s with all the facial hair?
If you have been seeing a bunch of scruffy guys, some of whom just aren’t shaving and others who are trying (with varying degrees of success) to grow a moustache, odds are it’s November.
Two men’s cancer awareness campaigns are in full swing this month. Each have a similar goals.
Movember – is a world wide program to raise funds and awareness for men’s health issues. Here are some sobering facts: 1 in 6 will be diagnosed with prostate cancer, and more than 30,000 men will die from prostate cancer this year.
No Shave November – is sponsored by the American Cancer Society. It also aims to raise cancer awareness and funds. Even women are encouraged to “let it grow” (i.e., don’t shave legs). Guys who love their current facial hair and don’t want to shave it off per the rules of Movember can still do “No Shave November”.
You can support me with a donation to my Movember page, or support someone else you know who is participating. We all need a little reward for the itching and, for some of us, the ridicule.
