Part of it is Komen and another part is how "too much of the focus by the general public is on breast cancer". Yes breast cancer is bad and it kills women but NOT NEARLY as many women die from breast cancer as die from ovarian or uterine cancer (in other words breast cancer isn't nearly as deadly as the others when/if it occurs). Moreover, the detection/treatment for breast cancer is much more advanced than that of ovarian/uterine and thus why shouldn't more of the focus (research dollar donations) go to cancers we are having more trouble with.
