In an interview with Daily Variety the 35 year-old said: 'I urge every man on the planet who's heterosexual to strike up a pact where his female partner directly checks his testicles for lumps and, in a reciprocal fashion, he checks her breasts.
'Please, though, make sure there's some sort of consensus before embarking on this relationship - it shouldn't be carried out on public transport, or in front of the relatives.'
Brand also revealed that his mum, Barbara, was diagnosed with uterine, lymph and breast cancer when he was growing up.
The comedian said: 'While thankfully she survived each time my childhood was affected by all that.'
