Shave for Movember
TheEvilDog:
It's that time of the year again, Movember, when men can grow dapper moustaches in support of men's cancer charities.
It's a worthy cause, as is any event that raises awareness about cancer. So please, if you can, donate.
Incidentally, how many of the forum's male population are going to grow a moustache for the month? Because I've already shaved and my face feels extremely cold and I'd feel really daft if I was the only one.
Jace:
You're a couple days early yet.
Supposed to shave Oct 31st and then not shave the rest of November.
I won't do it because my girlfriend has a 13 year old sister and I don't want to get put on any registries. Also because I don't think we need to raise awareness for cancer. I think we're aware of it by now.
TheEvilDog:
Not quite. Most men are aware of watching out for testicular cancer and lung cancer, but there are several other cancers that are often overlooked. Movember's purpose is to get men to be aware of them. Right now, men are about 16% more likely to develop cancer than women and are 40% more likely to die from it.
(Also, I have an interview tomorrow, so I needed to shave anyway)
jwhouk:
My 'stache stays on year-round.

I did Movember last year, and ended up raising a few hundred bucks for charity. Rad stuff!
