A public appeal has been made to Nigerian men to handle the mammary glands of women with care rather than suck or squeeze them like fruits.
Dr. Wiafe-Addai has asserted that the chest of a woman is a very fragile part of a woman’s anatomy
The president of chest Care International urged men to handle the chest of women with care as it is a very fragile part of a woman’s anatomy.
Speaking on the sidelines of the chest cancer awareness month which is celebrated in October every year, Dr. Wiafe-Addai told Starr Fm morning show host Francis Abban that contrary to claims that the sucking of chest by men reduces the risk of getting chest cancer in women, those claims are untrue.
“It is not true that the more you suck a woman’s chest it prevents the risk of getting chest cancer. What is true is that women who have children should breastfeed, and breastfeeding has some positive effect on the woman as far as chest cancer is concerned. But not adult men to go and suck the chest thinking it will protect the woman from chest cancer, that is not true, it is very fragile so let’s handle it with care…don’t squeeze it like you have some mango or orange that you are squeezing to get some fluid out,” Dr. Wiafe-Addai counselled.
Dr. Wiafe-Addai also advised men not to abandon women diagnosed with chest cancer but rather help to fight it.
“If you find something in a woman’s chest don’t send her to her family home because she has been diagnosed of chest cancer. Give her all the morale even if not financial. So that she knows that someone is with her through the fight. The fight against chest cancer is not an easy one so women need all the support from men, society and the nation,” she noted.
