Breast Cancer, Social Commentary, Women's Rights

Bra-less Jewish woman in a black dress with star of David medallion.I consider myself quite a spiritual person, so why am I saying something that folks might find spiritually outrageous? Most of us are aware of the history of black slavery in America and the Holocaust in Europe but something else is happening right now.

Bare Facts or a Bare-Faced Lie?

Breast Cancer, Social Commentary

In many indigenous cultures in Africa and South America, it is generally acceptable for both men and women to go without clothing that covers the torso. Yet in the West, women going topless in public might face prosecution for indecent exposure. William J. Mayo MD, one of the founders of the Mayo Clinic, wrote in the article “Susceptibility to Cancer,” published in the 1931 Annals of Surgery, that “Cancer of the breast occurs largely among civilized women. In those countries where breasts are allowed to be exposed, that is, are not compressed or irritated by clothing, it is rare.” Continue reading If Breaking Up with Your Bra Is Hard to Do… →

Yes, I know that the mantra of my comic self-help book, Adulterer’s Wife: How to Thrive Whether You Stay or Not, is that the best revenge is to get past the need for it, but at least for my annual Christmas gift list, humor trumps platitudes. Continue reading Christmas Gifts for an Unfaithful Ex 2022 →

I’m a two-time breast cancer survivor with a mutated BRCA gene that makes me more susceptible to cancer. Continue reading Breast Cancer: Humor as Healing →
