Attention grabbing or offensive title for an awareness campaign

What are your thoughts about the "I Love Boobies" campaign? Doe the title offend you or get your attention? Or both?

I'm not a huge fan. I think it makes breast cancer sound cutesy, even sexual-- and isn't it the women we love, not their boobs? Although it does certainly make people pay attention, so that's an advantage.

I think it is disrespectful....in many ways.

I feel it undermines the seriousness of breast cancer, which not only takes away breasts but kills the women they belong to. In the same vein, I would be unlikely to support a prostate-cancer campaign with an "I Love Weenies" slogan. Not funny enough to make up for the offense it causes.

Relevant-- I just saw a t-shirt the other day in a Target that said "Keep Calm and Save the Tatas." Tatas?!?

I find it offensive,it sounds like some thing a guy would say and I agree with @missa 13. I have one breast left and I don't think I would want every one calling it a boobie.@Jo Taylor

Not a fan. It's not about saving boobies it's about saving your life.

Not what you're looking for?
