    If you have to do it then do it but don't do it just for sake of doing it.

    That reminds me, I was totally in the mood for some breastfeeding. Just need to go find me a baby...


    :huh:

    I just think it's funny; I bet it's those same parents worry about a strip club existing within city limits that say it's fine to breastfeed in public. Hmmm...

    I travel a lot and unfortunately, see a lot of unwanted boob.

    I have no problem with either, but to try to say they are comparable is pretty laughable!

    Exactly what do you mean yay or nay? what are breast made for.. to breastfeed. to nourish our offspring.
    in public? well, you eat in public right? exactly.

    I feed my baby when and where she's hungry, and you can be really subtle without using a hooter hider. My kid has never had a bottle, so boob was the only option for a long time.

    Also, in South Carolina, it's illegal to kick a woman out on any public place for breastfeeding.

    yay. it's natural, and i don't see why there is a problem with a woman covered breastfeeding on a park bench. baby has to eat too and shouldn't need to wait to eat bc someone people are uptight about boobs in public.

    well if there is 1 thing we can all agree on its dat the human body is profane and yeh i guess babbies gotta eat but thats gross. women should definitely go to the bathroom because if i wanted porn i would go look it a playboy. thats just profane and triflin. i gotta pee sometimes but i don't do it in public.

    Wait it's OK to see fake boobies on a published magazine but to see breast doing what they are meant to do is comparable to relieving a bodily function? Hmmmm is it because breastfeeding desexualizes breasts?

    Of course. The prudes who are so against it are positively ridiculous. It's a breast. It isn't a sexual organ. Sexually-repressed puritans need to get a life. And frow the guck up.

    I breastfed all my babies in public.. it was simple they were hungry and needed to eat. I was discrete as I respect that it makes some people uncomfortable.. but at home not so much.

    You can even go topless in cali and a few other states. Theres a whole site dedicated to women going topless in public and it lists the states that this is legally allowed. Google it.

    Yes, babies need to eat, mommies need to get the milk out of their breasts. It happens. It's also good for children and young people to see. It will help them later to nurse their own babies if they've seen it before and asked questions. I don't understand why people are against it. People that are against it probably didn't see enough of it when they were little.

    o.O a picture is worth how many words?

    please pm me right away if you are my friend or know me somehow on these boards and think I will get a strike for this. there are no cleavages and apparently time magazine was ok with it. it's non sexual and very germane to this topic what with summertime tank top nursing, older kids nursing and whatnot.
