Facebook pulls plug on ‘threatening’ testicular cancer ad

Best effort at finding this 'threatening' ad: the ad?.

I can too easily imagine the public outcry if anyone tried pulling a breast cancer awareness ad because its depiction of a woman's covered chest was 'threatening'.

Wow, seeing as it is not uncommon to see cases of testicular cancer strike at 17 years, I feel that Facebook is doing a disservice by censoring this--or any sort of cancer advocacy--from their userbase.

Notice: the mere suggestion of male sexuality is considered offensive enough to warrant censorship in our male-demonizing society.

Of course, Facebook is fine with saving the ta-tas.

Maybe they should have done a thing for breast cancer, which we all know would have been approved and put on facebook right away for fear of backlash from females worldwide.
