At-a-glance

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Recently, there has been an increasing amount of facebook statuses stating phrases such as ‘I like it on the floor’ or ‘I like it in the car’. Women have been encouraged via chainmail to post such statuses to show their support for breast cancer awareness. Fortunately, the phrase doesn’t act as it sounds. Instead, it is where women like to place their purses.

This past October, women held a similar campaign where they’d post statuses stating their bra colors by simply saying ‘Blue’ or ‘White’. Women, again, did this to show their awareness of breast cancer.

Posting these statuses acts as a game for women. When ten of your facebook friends post colors at random, your curiosity is going to get the best of you. If your friend posts ‘I like in the closet’, you’re going to want to know what it is they like.

These statuses have acted to bond women together throughout the cyber world in attempt to raise awareness about breast cancer.
