"Seven Nightly News aired a story in 1999 featuring a group of young men in
Adelaide,
South Australia who coined the term "Movember" and the idea of growing moustaches for charity throughout the month of November."
"No Shave November has it's roots in the slightly older Movember, the
international version in which men grow mustaches in the month of
November to promote prostate cancer awareness."
Maybe No Shave November was more popular here first, but Movember definately came first.
