Thursday Thirteen ~ Breasts

You all know that October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. (if not…what? …do you live in a cocoon?)
One of the more unusual fundraising efforts I have come across is the Sixth Annual
Boobie-thon.

(initial pages are work safe – no breastage can be seen)

From October 1 through October 8 women (and men) of the Blogworld are submitting photos of their…um…[select a word from the list below] and for a small donation you can view them ALL. There are daily prizes awarded for the mamatory donations…and for those making monetary donations (laughing….sometimes I just crack myself up.)

Kat over at
My Single Mom Life is donating her time to edit submitted photos. (bet some of you guys are wishin’ you had volunteered for THIS gig!)

Its easy….I know you all have a digital camera. "The Ladies" do not have to be completely exposed....you know that one bra you have...the one that shows them off to perfection... Ask a friend….go to a mirror. You ALL know how to edit out your face or other distinguishing features. C'mon....I dare ya!!!

Thirteen Slang Words for Breasts
Boobs
Tatas
Headlights
Teats
Coconuts
Heavenly Dumplings
Jugs
Knockers
Titties
Mustangs
Bosoms
Hooters
The Laaaadies.

For those of you who want to donate (even $5) to this important cause…and don’t care to ogle other women’s chests….Head over to
Mags and sponsor her in her walk in honor of Empress Bee!

I am amazed: 13 slang words for breasts!
The Boobie-thon is a wonderful initiative!

Linda said...

"The Ladies"? I thought they were "The Girls"?

Alas, I was short-changed in the boobage department and even though people tell me it's a good thing when you get older, I feel cheated that I wasn't blessed with a nice "rack" or a set of "headlights" that could illuminate a room!

katherine. said...

kat: well more so than others...laughing...

lori: "rack" I should have thought of that one...

Miz Bee: (hope it helps!)

mar: guys can think of more...I am sure!

Linda: well...I think women of a...um...certain age...oh...never mind. (anything more than what fills a champagne glass is wasted...)

The Rock Chick said...

I'm smiling! Great list--- my ex used to call them "chichis"....(you know, if you ever needed a 14th word!) LOL

Happy TT

Oh man, I could seriously make a huge list. I'll sop with just those....LOL

Travis Cody said...

Ahhhhhh tatas. Lovely bunches of coconuts. Mmmmmmmm. And permission to ogle.

Mimi Lenox said...

lol
I put the wand away this time.

Great cause. I don't think I have the nerve to actually do this but applaud those who do it in the spirit it was intended.

Amazing Gracie said...

You know those gals in the National Geographic Magazine?
I'll spare you any photos...
(I already donated so I'm guilt free!!!)

Maggie Moo said...

I'm sorry I didn't get over here yesterday Katherine! I think this is hysterical...I wonder how many people are going to do it!

As for donating...well, I sure hope we get some more. I haven't reached my goal yet, and I'm so close! And the walk is only about 1 week away!

FUN BAGS!!!

I turned pink for October and am welcoming any bloggers who did the same to come on over and add their link! I'm donating fifty cents for each one!

Mel said...

What a cute idea.

I'm hoping it reaps good results.

Desert Songbird said...

Of course, around here, we hear quite a bit of "casabas."

Julie said...

Great program going on here! My hubby calls mine "the twins"....although one is bigger then the other......tee hee hee!!!

Marilyn said...

I wonder what hubb would say if I joined in the picture thing... I donated for Mags and Bee already so maybe I'm off the hook.

You can count on my support.

Barb said...

I understand it's for a very good cause, but I couldn't help giggling.

Marilyn said...

Nope... I asked and Andy said, "please no". So I guess I have to keep my boobs to myself.
