Absolutely stupid, and arguably trying to murder male breast cancer victims... Yes, they exist, especially in countries with severe obesity issues like the US
People who were assigned the male sex at birth can also develop breast cancer.
It is precisely the people who accuse others of pushing an agenda who stand out for this type of behaviour.
My dad had breast cancer. He's fine now. Also my mom had breast cancer (she's fine too). Guess who gets to have a yearly MRI and doesn't have any issues with people referring to it as "chest cancer"? (did you guess me? cause it's me)
Cis males DO occasionally get it. Not often enough that screenings are recommended, but there is enough vestigial breast tissue in a cis male that it is possible.
Thanks. It is very rare among cis men so screening men in general wouldn’t make sense, but those with BRCA mutations, like my brother, are at higher risk & need to pay closer attention to their chests

I mean, breast cancer in men is rare, but when there's a TV episode about exactly that being suffered by the main character...
"The American Cancer Society estimates for breast cancer in men in the United States for 2024 are:
- About 2,790 new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed
- About 530 men will die from breast cancer"
AMAB people, pay attention to your bodies... and Ms Sousa can fuck all the way off.
