The Breast Care president stated that contrary to claims that the sucking of the breast by men reduces the risk of getting breast cancer in women, those claims are untrue.
She stated that rather than the general notion, women who have children should breastfeed, as breastfeeding has some positive effect on the woman as far as breast cancer is concerned.
She explained that adult men voraciously sucking women’s breasts will only weaken the breast and also does not have anything to do with preventing cancer.
…But not adult men to go and suck the breast thinking it will protect the woman from breast cancer, that is not true, it is very fragile so let’s handle it with care. She said
She also urged men to very supportive of their wives. This advice was pertaining to the events where men forsake their wives after they’ve been diagnosed with breast cancer.
