having read the full study it's a poorly conducted piece of research, and may as well have said "men with blue eyes will get prostate cancer".

The study also mentioned you live longer if you drink lots of tea... (hence why you may be more likely to get prostate cancer)

I didnt know you had blue eyes, what are the chances?!

Statistically you two are doooooomed! lol

It was only a few years ago they reported that tea drinkers were more likely to get throat cancer too due to drinking too many hot beverages. As bikers though I think a cup of tea is the least of our worries

With all the steak I eat, the salt I have, the tea I drink, the blue eyes I have along with the blond hair & fair skin, I am sure there is a fair few cancers that will get me.

But you're right, helmet hair is gonnas be a bigger issue, right?
