Developing vs Developed Countries: Health Status - tanTALK

Don Smith · 10-30-2002, 05:50 PM

FYI To Ask Don's Army:

Click on the link below to read an article titled "WHO-Lifestyle Major Cause of Global Health Problems" on Reuters.com.

It is interesting and enlightening to note the differences in developing countries (the major cause of sickness and death was undernutrition of mothers and children, poor sanitation and sunsafe sex) and developed countries (the major causes of sickness and death was tobacco, high blood pressure and "overweight" related problems).

Thanks Don, some good info there. I didn't see one mention of UV induced skin cancers. Not suprised - are you?

Don, what's sunsafe sex ???????

Don Smith · 11-01-2002, 08:31 AM

Mori:

There are only two types of sex.

Good sex.

And better sex!

Perhaps "unsafe sex" is when your wife catches you "chippying" around.

Don

PS: Is Canada a developed or developing country? LOL

Mori, I think "sunsafe sex" is when you are with the right partner in the beautiful sun

In the front window of one of my salons I've got a rather large sign that says "Tanning is like sex, it's better when it's safer".

And Mitzi, unsafe sex is when you're caught in bed with the wife of the hunter that just burst through the bedroom door, rifle in hand, just back from a no-kill weekend !!!

Me and you Mitzi, we'll just be friends... okay? (tell your husband!)

"that's okay Mori, he kills deer, not chicken."
