Your bra color as status

So yesterday Facebook was swamped with ladies just posting colors in their Facebook status messages in honor of Cancer Awareness and of course it was funny to see the guys trying to figure out what it meant. Did you took part? And if so did your male friends question you about it? Did you think this was a good idea? Why or why not?

My friend told me about it and i did it...I dont know how it helps in cancer awareness. None of my guy friends said anything about it because not many of my friend girls participated.

I first saw my cousin put a color on her status. I was so blur and don;t know what is that about. Until she sent me the message about the details of the cancer awareness. Now I see some of my Facebook friends also start to put different colors in their status. Hope this wouldn't get the guys confuse.

I took part in it, but days ago so for once Norway has done something before the rest of the world :-) We get all films and series later than bigger countries so we have to be first when we can :-) Even if it is only in announcing the colour of our bras.

lol..I did. But I left for my holiday the next day after I put it up as my status. So, besides a few of my girlfriends' comments, I didn't really get to talk to the guys. But I guess with so many wives on FB, most of the guys must have figured out what it was all about...atleast the guys I know would have.

Honestly, it all sounds funny to me. Maybe it was an innovative initiative but I can't help laughing.

I was one of many players in that game but I didn't do it for Cancer Awareness. I did it cause it was hilarious visualizing the guys scratching their heads (not saying which end) over all the colors. There was also another going around about how us gals wore our hair as well..

i got the message but haven't passed it on, when i was about to. the message system stopped working and i've not really been in there since to send it all again. i think we maybe better of doing donations, some how to the research than something like that. it is becoming more common, and affecting more people that we know.

I found out about it late the day before lol. My cousin had sent me something about it and I didn't read it. So when I got home saw all the ladies on my friends list posting colors, I didn't get it until someone explained to me. I thought it was cool.

Well this is the only time I knew what's behind those colored status...I saw some of my friends have them a few days ago. It didn't quite piqued my interest because only a few friends have posted it and I never noticed they were all females until today

Hehehehe. I think it's funny! No, I even don't know that even. I think it's not good idea if kids read it. It's too immoral for her. But it's okay for adult, It's just like dirty jokes.

Ah, I was wondering what all the colours were about. (And I'm a woman, lol!) A few of my friends did this, and I had no idea why. I don't see how this actually helps Cancer Awareness, is it supposed to be a way of raising money?? So I'm not sure if it's a good idea, because other than to play a trick on guys I don't really get how it works.

Yes, I did take part in it and some male friends as well as even female friends who have not been forwarded the message were confused about the color as status. I think it is a good way to spread the awareness even though at first it might turn out as funny to some people because they have no idea what it meant, but at the same time we can be serious when thinking about the importance of the message.

I didn't even know about it! Now I am sad I missed out! sounds like a good idea to me... although I wasn't aware. I wonder how many other girls didn't know...

Yes, I took part in it yesterday. Then, late in the afternoon, when my daughter arrived from school and checked Facebook, she wondered what the colors written in the statuses meant. So I explained it to her.

Ohhh, and i'm too late for it. It might not be appropriate, but as long as it helps others, why not??!! The guys have been so blur, as always.
