do remember that men get
breast cancer also.


They do. Not to mention that men should be screened for prostate
cancer.


I was just trying to decide which test is more "fun".


I think both of them are pretty high up there in the "undignified"
scale, but I gather that mammograms are actually higher on the "painful"
scale, despite what most men think of the process.

[Anecdote: the last time I had the prostate thing done I mentioned to
my doctor about the indignity of it all, and he said "It's OK, I'm
Italian." To which my response was "What the f*ck does *that* mean?"
and he had to admit that he hadn't a clue as to what made him say that.]
