Cell Phones Cause Cancer . . ?

Featured Replies

Do you believe that cell phones can really cause cancer? some say that they've gotten cancer and "they've always kept their cell phones in their bras" and so on. Is this a coincidence or are we discovering a new problem?

"they've always kept their cell phones in their bras"

 

:wtf: why would you put it in your bra, you just have one mis shaped boob.

i pressume you mean like a shirt pocket.

:wtf:

Nothing is proven yet, but I never keep it in my pocket

After ten years of reading/watching the news, one sees that pretty much everything causes cancer.

ha... very true

The only way to ensure you don't get cancer is to kill yourself. Fact.

No because cell phones emit a type of radiation that is shown to not affect biological processes - the wavelength is too long, so the radiation just passes through cells and DNA without causing any damage, just like visible light does.

^ You're exactly right, the radio waves that the cellphone receives and sends have no energy at all to cause malignant cells within the body.

 

You can also prove this by doing a linear regression of specific studies and observations.

Perhaps not the radiation, but does the plastic phone case out-gas carcinogens? Constant skin exposure might lead to a risk. And while the energy level of radio waves are below infra-red (heat essentially), one wonders if they may disrupt certain molecular bonds, as the resonant frequency of a given bond will oscillate when pulsed with a corresponding frequency of microwave radiation. If that were bonds in the DNA molecule, or hormone molecule bonds, or some other important regulator chemical in the body, I would think there could potentially be some risks, but if double-blind clinical tests are inconclusive or show a low level of correlation between risk and exposure, well then, it sounds like they may be safe in terms of their microwave energy outputs.

But some cell phones do have a vibrator setting, so this might lead to some excitement when placed in a bra! :P

Hahahaha! What a way to end that post.

Actually, when we go on stage for choir at school, our dresses don't have pockets, so we put them in our bras xD I don't put it there other then that though :thinking:

I have my cell-phone off as much as possible :rolleyes: I don't even want it.

 

Well done. Mine is on the whole time, but it's mostly for receiving calls, not making them.;)

No link has ever been proven.

 

Until The Daily Mail posts an article about it anyway.
