I take it Kenny that you are a gay activist. But what makes a gay activist so hateful of women that you would set out to trash an author who has provided material relevant to a serious health concern of women? What is in it for you to try to dissuade others, women especially, from reading information that is so practical and useful?

There is evidence that breastfeeding dramatically reduces the incidence of breast cancer and so does regular exercise, to take a couple of examples. That is good news, broadcast it widely!

Well said Babette and who knows what motivated poor little Kenny to be so nasty, but I am sure his therapist could point him in the right direction.

It is not simply the increased risk of cancer that is of concern, but valid research (as distinct from Kenny's sample size of one) is also demonstrating an increased risk of epigenetic defects emanating from ART (assisted reproductive technology) which is traditionally utilised by women in their older reproductive years - and in the form of massive female hormone 'treatment'.

Then again, maintaining the silence about the adverse effects on women might be a desirable outcome for misogynists desirable of reducing the female population.

…With no wish to appear deprecating to women at all, the old adages may hold more relevance than derogatory inclusions after all, for instance; “Keep them barefoot and pregnant” or “A woman’s place is in the home”.

…What has caused the shift towards women leaving home and hearth? Short answer; the cost of housing! The astronomical cost of housing in Australia has been a “boon” to the banks and real estate agents, but it seems now, the real cost is borne by women forced into the workforce to pay for “profits” at the expense of their health!

…This is a situation of systemic abuse surely … Another bleak failure of Capitalism and market forces; a mantra of abuse impacting on human rights of a woman to be simply a mother, as nature intended!

ignore the Designer and you pay the consequences no matter how much spin you put on it.

Would that be the designer of breast cancer, runner?

If abortion is indeed a risk factor for breast cancer then it should be more widely known. I believe in a woman's right to chose, but it should be an informed decision and avoiding unwanted pregnancy in the first place is always to be preferred.
