You are not your breasts

Every year at Princeton University, the student group Princeton Against Cancer Together (PACT) holds an event called Manicure for the Cure , where they bring in beauty school students to do manicures for Princeton students in the days leading up to spring formals. Formals are this weekend, so advertising for manicure for the Cure are all over campus.

To advertise, they're using the slogan "Save Second Base." The phrase "second base," in case you don't know, refers to foreplay involving breasts, as in "I kissed Jenny under the bleachers and made it to second base." "How far did you let him go, Jenny? To second base?" If it sounds antiquated and ridiculous... that's because it is.
