A member asked:
Why would the color pink be associated with breast cancer awareness?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Femininity: Pink is traditionally a feminine color, but not exclusively, of course. Breast cancer is traditionally a disease of women, but not exclusively. Ergo, pink has been chosen to represent awareness. I hope this helps. Good luck.
