Just like wearing a pink ribbon stands for I had/have fought breast cancer

I have neither had nor have breast cancer but i still wear on occassion a pink ribbon...your words are not correct.

The pink ribbon is worn as a symbol for those that support reasearch into breast cancer. I also donate money to the cause, as i'm sure others do, those (including myself at times) that choose to not publically wear a ribbon does not mean they they do not support it.

Daffodil day (cancer reasearch) is a yellow ribbon or daffodil pin worn, rather than wear one, one year i shaved my head, other years i donate.

Ribbons/pins are purely a symbol, nothing more nothing less, they certainly are not the only way to express what you believe is a good cause!
