I really don't think this message was intended to commodify women into parts, more just a catchy way to bring attention to the importance of good breast health which can lead to saving lives. While the message is serious, the phrase brought a smile to my face. Yes, I agree, it is about saving lives and early detection is key!

Society has a tendency to commodify women into parts. Just calling it when I see it. This is not about saving “ta-tas” it is about saving women’s lives.
