Helpful Husbands

"Super-husbands" wearing t-shirts with the motto "I examine my wife's breasts," went on a parade in the city of Białystok, north east Poland, lately.

Not necessarily a unique idea as American photo to left illustrates.

The demo was part of an unusual campaign reminding women of the necessity of routine breast cancer tests.

Among those wearing the "Super-husband" shirt was deputy chief of the Podlasie province, Bogusław Dębski and Białystok president, Tadeusz Truskolaski, who said that he viewed the t-shirt mostly as a way of gaining publicity for the cause, but, he added, modestly, he didn't want anyone to "think he was bragging".
