Good lord!

It's not really about the breast feeding at all, it's your attitude. I hope you don't raise your child to that that much disrespect for others.

(light blue touch paper and stand well back....)

AnotherLoverToo said:

Yes, definitely. People who care about that are just plain stupid. My sister who's usually very prudish quickly adjusted to breastfeeding in semi-public, as you say many mothers are good at concealing the boobs when they feed the baby.

ponchos are good for this!

What I haven't yet understood in this whole conversation is why it is the responsibility of the breast feeding mother, who is engaged in one of the most important activities a human can do, to be "respectful" of some bonehead who is uptight and to immature to disassociate breast feeding with the sexualization of the breast.

If you have a problem with the human breast then go figure out why and work it out. But fuck off if you can't be supportive of a fellow human doing something sooooo important for another human.

Talk about misplaced outrage. Get offended about Bush bombing innocent women and children for money and power. Leave the breast feeding mothers alone. Life is to easy in America if you have the time and the energy to be offended by public breast feeding.

Aww nawwww.....

Do you really know what they put in formula? DRUGS!!!! lol, j/k

And what's not ladylike about breastfeeding? If ya do it in public, there's still a way that you can do it discreetly. Anyway, that's partly what we were given boobs for in the first place, isn't it? Believe it or not, breastfeeding IS the best way to feed a baby. If i had a child, I'd rather feed him with breastmilk than to put him on that gawd-awful formula that makes kids all malnutritioned n'stuff.

Besides, if ya just don't agree with the method, then how about the women who use the breast pumps? That way, women can still feed with bottles, give em breastmilk and not look "gross" about it, i guess.

I don't understand why we are having this discussion in the first place. Anyone who is offended by it, they need to leave. Women shouldn't have to turn into Taliban like victims to feed their kids. I've seen people bitch about women where were discreet about it, never ever once showing their breast. It's a tit, get over it. We all eat from it and if you can't deal with seeing one in this context, you got major major issues.

If you're discreet then fine. The women I've seen have not been discreet about it and leave their boob hanging out while putting the child back in their seat or what not.

Some of you are getting way too offended and frankly getting nasty about this. Lighten up, it's all opinion!

And please don't bring the war into this topic. There's no comparison and it's ridiculous

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

Um, I don't have issues. I just don't like to see it while I'm out at a restaraunt. Same goes for people that chew with their mouth open, it's just my opinion!!!

CarrieLee said:

OK, it's different if a woman is just flopping all over the place. Anyone with any kind of common sense knows you should be discreet about it. But I have heard people bitching about women who begin the process with a blanket over them, slip the baby under it, feed it and keep concealed the whole time. No tit ever being shown and they're bitching. Those people need to get over whatever freaken issue they have cuz it's ridiculous to think women can't feed their babies because some people are going to flip out about it. Let's just shove their ass in a closet when they eat.

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

I don't care about that. This particular woman was hanging out everywhere even when the baby was finished. She had no class. If you're discreet then feed away! If you're gonna let your boob drip everywhere and let it hang out for a while then you suck and have no class!

It's a natural thing that goes back hundreds of years if people don't like it don't look.

CarrieLee said:

well I agree, women's flapjacks shouldn't be flopping all over the place

I haven't seen anyone comparing the war to breast feeding. You have to read more carefully.

CarrieLee said:

You don't have issues!! You just compared one of the most natural, beautiful and truely amazing things humans can do with a disgusting and rude behavior.

I know it is your "opinion", but your opinion shows that you have issues with breasts.

Just like the earlier posts which compared breastfeeding in public to shitting in public. That opinion demonstrates that the person expressing it has some issues to work on if that is how they view breastfeeding.

roanmairin said:

Who shit in your cheerios this morning?

I'm simply stating that it's MY OPINION. You obviously can't deal with that! YOU think it's beautiful...I don't! And ya know what? That's fine cuz it's YOUR opinion! Get over yourself!

Ladies and gentlemen, I think I've hit a nerve.

roanmairin said:

Is that what you were trying to do? Cuz no, you didn't!

Edit my mom comment, I thought you were female cuz you're acting like a bitch!

Is there gonna be mud wrestling in this thread? Carrie has everything you need for it

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

How about we wrestle in a tub of breast milk! All you ladies that wanna squeeze it out in public will have free reign!

CarrieLee said:

Honest mistake, I'm very in touch with my feminine side. My wife and two daughters make sure of that.

Don't leave the toilet seat up in my house or you die.

CarrieLee said:

See! We worked out a compromise Isn't Democracy great

roanmairin said:

There does seem to be a lack of understanding here.

As I've said before I don't have a problem with breast feeding. You can squirt your milk into your baby's mouth from a few feet away like at a fairground stall for all I care. It won't put me off my food.

But what's poor is taking the opinion that you are right and everyone who disagrees is wrong, dismissing them as "boneheads" and telling them to "fuck off". It's disrespectful, inconsiderate and causes me to side with those who are offended, possibly through no fault of their own.

Are there more important issues in the world today? Probably. But that doesn't mean you can do what you like, where you like, with a total disregard for other people's feelings even if you disagree with them.

Where would we be if everyone had that attitude?

Where we are right now! Have you ever heard of Congress?
