Do some references to slang words for women's breasts cross the cancer cure line?

Has breast cancer awareness gone too far? Some young people sporting bands with "I love boobies."

Some schools say that's crossing the line and the lawsuits have started. East Texans talk-back on: slang words used for women's breasts and if it's hurting or helping cancer research.

I think it is inappropriate for younger kids to be wearing. That being said, I don't know if has helped and I doubt it's hurt, but it does seem to have risen awareness.

Just a question. Everywhere I look is another fund raiser / awareness for Breast cancer. My question is " how much do you need?". If you ever get it CURED( which fund raising implies will happen), then what will happen to all this fund raising apparatus(runs/walks/ tee shirts/pins,/bracelets/bows/etc).Jerry Lewis gets 1 million a year from his MD. That's a good gig, but I hate to think MY giving goes to his or others pockets for a lifestyle instead of a CAUSE.Is money the only thing that cures?
