Project Description

 

Let us first state the obvious: This book is not meant to objectify women. On the contrary: this book is made in honor and praise of women—all women—and boobs are the red thread that leads us on this particular journey. 

This book is also not about the size or appearance of any boob, or even about having them or not. Big boobs, small boobs, no boobs—it doesn’t matter. We favor no one and include everyone.

Instead, this book is about what boobs symbolize. As an icon, these fascinating, visually striking, biological wonders of cultural importance transcend language, yet throughout history they have often been misunderstood and mishandled. Boobs are the basic symbols of life, freedom, prosperity, joy, safety, sex, independence—not to mention food—and they tirelessly bear the promise of a brighter future. After you finish reading this book, you may ask yourself, why, is there anything a boob can’t do?

And last but not least, this book is about how to care for your boobs. Our number one goal is to inspire boob health, including screening and self-examination, because when it comes to breast cancer, the battle of the boob is one we will win. That’s why all profits from the future sale of this book will go directly to organizations that focus on the research, prevention, and treatment of breast cancer.

Let our boobs invite you to share a giggle, reflect, and impress on you something new. Then, let’s look beyond the boobs, at the larger picture of what it means to be a woman, a man, a human. Women, this one’s for you. You strong, resilient, gentle, loving yet powerful souls. We look up to your natural beauty and wisdom. Whoever you are, whatever kind of boobs you have, you inherently have the magic.

So then, in boobs we trust, and in women we believe. Hail the boob! Hail all women! The future belongs to you so please be strong for us all, and let your boobs lead the way.

Recent studies suggest that many women in the U.S. are not following recommended guidelines for mammography screening by having their first screening later than recommended, not having one at recommended intervals or not receiving appropriate and timely follow-up of positive screening results. 

 

Our offer is simple: You get a beautifully printed, one-of-a-kind book filled with art from a vast array of artists with diverse styles but a singular message; while 100% of future profits go to support breast cancer organizations. That’s a win-win in our book.

Daughters, mothers, sisters, friends, girlfriends, wives, co-workers that you feel close enough to say the word “boob” in front of. Anyone and everyone that enjoys pop art and/or needs a little reminder to tune in to their breast health.

The Campaign FAQs

Which breast cancer organizations do you support?

We're donating 100% of profits to both larger and smaller organizations: BCRF (Breast Cancer Research Foundation) and NBCF (National Breast Cancer Foundation). We’ll also earmark donations to smaller organizations that have a harder time attracting big, corporate sponsors.
