This is like my own, personal McDonald's hot coffee thing. Putting talc ON yourself is fine, AFAIK. Putting it in yourself is not great. The allegation, again AFAIK, is that J&J knew that women were putting it in themselves, that they encouraged this behavior, and that such causes cancer. However, I'm not even sure the last part is true. It doesn't cause cancer as reliably, as, say, inhaling asbestos, and as we all know, everything is known by the state of California to cause cancer. With the benefit of 50 years of study, they were able to establish a correlation.
