*purely speculative*
maybe because it is traumatic (even when not life threatening) to some women as a loss of their "womanhood" when they get double mastectomies and that 1 out of 8 women get breast cancer at some point.
If you gave me the option of skin cancer with a survivability of 90% and penis cancer with a survivability of 99%.......I think I'd choose the skin cancer and be thrilled that my penis wasn't being removed.
