Deadpool, never too concerned with treading on the farthest outside edge of good taste, has taken some time out of his busy schedule to talk to audiences about women's health issues.

Playing on the "I'm touching myself tonight" line that appeared in the first trailer, Deadpool encourages audiences to touch themselves -- for cancer awareness. And after a series of double entendre-laden jokes, the character cues up an instructional video on breast cancer detection.

You can check it out below.

Based upon Marvel Comics' most unconventional anti-hero, DEADPOOL tells the origin story of former Special Forces operative turned mercenary Wade Wilson, who after being subjected to a rogue experiment that leaves him with accelerated healing powers, adopts the alter ego Deadpool. Armed with his new abilities and a dark, twisted sense of humor, Deadpool hunts down the man who nearly destroyed his life.

The film is in theaters on February 12.
