在一个被称为“国民病”的国家，癌症主要影响日本男性，本文提出了一个阅读的文化脚本下的前列腺癌，“西方类型的癌症”之一。该阅读基于“性脚本理论”的改编，癌症知识的构建，以及对2005年至2020年在日本发行量最大的三家报纸上发表的3，092份报纸报道的分析。分析提出了三个轴：癌症自我，癌症生物教育学和癌症经济学，表明癌症自我在很大程度上需要一个西化的，已婚的，异性恋的男人经历andropause的主观性，需要了解膀胱体细胞学是什么，并依赖于他的家庭和女性化的照顾，以科普癌症。预防和/或生存的机会，主要取决于采用一种形式的癌症生物教育学，这需要一个知识和健康相关的做法的复合纠缠，通过“传统食品”（和食）的消费和假设，成为一个“健康的自我”是由日本的民族特征决定的癌症的民族化为基础。癌症经济学关注的是测试和治疗的成本，医疗保险政策，以及食品和膳食补充剂，这些食品和膳食补充剂有助于将处理前列腺和尿液相关问题的癌症自我商品化。
In a country where cancer has been dubbed a “national disease” (kokumin bio) that mostly affects Japanese men, this article presents a reading of the cultural scripts underneath prostate cancer—one of the “Western type of cancers” (ōbeigata no gan). The reading is grounded in an adaptation of the “sexual scripting theory,” the construct of cancer-literacy, and the analysis of 3,092 newspaper reports published from 2005 to 2020, in three Japanese newspapers with the largest circulation in the country. The analysis is presented in line with three axes: cancer-self, cancer-biopedagogy, and cancer-economics to indicate that a cancer-self largely entails the subjectivity of a Westernized, married, heterosexual man who undergoes andropause, needs to understand what bladder somatics is, and depends on his family and the feminization of care to cope with cancer. The chances to prevent and/or survive the disease chiefly hinge on adopting a form of cancer-biopedagogy, which entails a composite entanglement of knowledge and health-related practices underpinned by the ethnicization of cancer through the consumption of “traditional food” (washoku) and the assumption that turning into a “healthy self” is determined by Japanese ethnic traits. Cancer-economics is concerned with costs of testing and treatments, health care insurance policies, and food and dietary supplements that serve to commodify a cancer-self who deals with prostate and urinary-related issues.
