Sexism of Coppafeel breast cancer charity

The Issue

Breast cancer charity Coppafeel continue to use blatantly sexist language and marketing campaigns to raise awareness for breast cancer at the expense of women's rights. The language and marketing campaigns promote the idea that women exist to be sexualised and our breasts exist for people to "coppafeel". This is dehumanising and oppressive. 

The objectification of breasts and simultaneous censorship of the female nipple is a pervasive and chronic problem in our society, yet coppafeel have capitalised on this discrimination against women to promote breast cancer awareness.

There are many ways to promote breast cancer awareness without being sexist yet Coppafeel continue to dismiss people who object to this mistreatment of women. 

Please sign this petition to call out this charity and pressure Coppafeel to start treating women equally to men. I hope with this petition to stop the sexualisation of breast cancer campaigns which ultimately harm women's mental health and is unecessary when promoting breast cancer awareness. 

Please also email them to complain if you can at team@coppafeel.org
