Mr. Balls: The Best Anti-Cancer Mascot We’ve Ever Seen

Meet Mr. Balls. He’s the mascot for the anti-cancer group Associação de Assistência às Pessoas com Câncer in Brazil. And he is a giant pair of balls. Things are EXTRA in Brazil. A friend of mine once dressed up as testicles for a Halloween party one year. It was really gross. As is Mr. Balls. But there’s also something adorable about him. I don’t know whether I want to hug him or puke. The hair is definitely making me squeamish.

Everyone seems to love AAPEC’s representative, though. He’s a big hit at health fairs. And it could have been worse. It could have been Mrs. Vagine.

Maybe American men would be easier on their balls if they had had Mr. Balls to look up to as children.

And while we’re on the subjects of nuts, your testicular health is valuable, men! Go here to learn how to self-examine!

  1. You know what? It’s weird sure, and yes, maybe gross, but if it gets the word out and raises awareness about testicular cancer then Mr. Balls is doing a great thing.

  2. Adoro a Brasil. Love, love, love Brazil. That’s how you set up an educational campign.

  3. We definitely need a Mr. Balls in this country but let’s manscape ours first so that he’s more palatable. Plus the fun thing about this post is that you have a “caption this” entry and lots of choices on which one to use.
