But I think it should be allowed for the same reason that breast/cleavage advertisement is allowed. Then we can all get used to it/over it. Keeping in mind that I hope we then stop hearing complaints like "HEY! stop staring at my boobs!"

And as far as covers; none of my babies would put up with being covered while they nursed, each of them pulled them off or fussed and wouldn't latch with it on.

No prob.<br />To feed babies? Eeuwww!! Icky!!!<br /><br />Idiots. Like the dinosaurs, I'm beginning to suspect that our brains are too small to enable us to survive the challenges that are coming. If over half of us are THIS inflexible about something so totally positive and natural, what hope is there for us?<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2501871874894175622.post-21272610306527678202013-03-14T18:00:32.511-04:002013-03-14T18:00:32.511-04:00When thinking about the "issue" that pub...When thinking about the "issue" that public breastfeeding has become, I keep coming back to the fact that the entire purpose of breasts are to feed one's young. The highly sexualized notion of female breasts has been generated by us in society. If there is anything to find disgusting within this situation it is the sexualization of women's bodies and especially breasts.

I personally, would rather my children grow up with a holistic view of people and our bodies-not unattaible perfection that is depicted through media.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2501871874894175622.post-43762737332779094102012-08-24T15:37:39.952-04:002012-08-24T15:37:39.952-04:00I've never wanted to be a mother, but I think ...I've never wanted to be a mother, but I think all these photos of women breastfeeding their children are absolutely stunning. <br /><br />I'm for it.

A very large number of my intelligent and sensible friends seem to believe that breastfeeding in public is disgusting.<br /><br />More often they say, "But I would not want my 10 year old child to see it". What's all that about?<br /><br />Sometimes I despair of my fellow humans. How did so many get so screwed up?Jim Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16025930464794948571noreply@blogger.com
