According to the Washington Post, this is a rehash of a trend from November, given a charitable purpose:

“From now until December 7, change your profile picture to a cartoon character from your childhood. The objective of this is not to see any human faces on facebook but an invasion of memories for the fight against Violence to Children. Remember we were kids too.”

As the Post points out, while the “I like it on” campaign may have encouraged a woman to do a self exam, is there any small step someone could really take to prevent violence against children?

Hopefully if you suspected a child was the victim of violence, it wouldn’t take a Facebook meme to remind you to report it, and we’re not sure someone who is violent towards a child will suddenly be swayed by seeing a cartoon from their childhood. Crazier things have happened though, and while posting pictures of your favorite cartoon may not help anything, it can’t hurt either. If you need a starting point, here are a few of our favorite cartoon characters.

The “it” in “I like it on…” actually refers to a woman’s purse, not where she likes to have sex (sorry guys), though the double entendre is hard to ignore – which is probably the point.

While pink ribbons are prominent year round reminders to women to be on the lookout for lumps or abnormalities in breast tissue, there’s nothing wrong with adding a reminder in a more jovial manner. Though it’s not seen as anything inflammatory in the US, there are plenty of countries around the world where discussing breast health is still seen as a taboo. Even in the US, a woman’s husband or boyfriend might not be the first person to say “have you done a self-exam recently?” so a meme with a wink and a nod to other shared activities is a clever way to get that type of discussion started.
