Breastfeeding In Public?

[+ Avalon]

I don't like it! I don't want to see a female breast. For those who have had sex with females don't they get in the way?

 

But I'm told that breastfeeding is natural. So is urinating and defecating. Somethings are best done in private!

[+ GregM]

Would you rather the baby scream its head off? I would rather see a baby sucking tit then screaming and crying. The breast was meant to feed baby not oogle at.

 

Hugs,

Greg

Being intolerant of women is just as bad as being anti-gay. They're just feeding their child.

 

To compare breastfeeding to taking a shit or urinating speaks volumes about someone.

 

Just quit while you're ahead: Not every thought you think deserves its own thread.

It does...sort of like a man's cock gets in the way during sex.

 

As for public nursing, sometimes the baby is hungry and can't wait. Most women are pretty discreet about it. If she's wearing a button down shirt, you wouldn't be able to see much anyway between the shirt and the baby's head.

I don't mind hearing a baby cry or scream because I know that I'm not the one who will have to go home and have to put up with it!

The good old days when babies were bottle fed!

The good old days when babies were fed with bottles!

 

Many women don't really enjoy nursing. But over the past few decades, a bunch of research has shown that nursing makes babies smarter and helps them bond. (Of course, women can pump milk in advance and many do, but that can be painful.)

Id love to feed off Ben Nichol's nips in public - anywhere anytime

Look aside...

 

Straight men like boobs... they can't help it.

I have a female cousin my age so this goes back many years. My aunt had so much milk she sold some.

Heterosexuality is so strange!

I’ve witnessed this numerous times, in church, movie theaters, and public transportation to name a few places.

 

What I can’t abide is the changing of a diaper in public. This has happened twice in restaurants of all places. In both instances the mother did not take the child to the restroom. One woman placed the kid on a chair and opened the diaper bag and just nonchalantly changed the wet diaper. Another time the mother laid the baby on the floor and ignored the gasps of patrons sitting nearby. When the manager told her the restroom had a changing shelf she cursed him out and created a scene. Our society is on an ever accelerating downward spiral. I dread what the future has in store.

Yep, this is gross. I've heard of it happening in flight too.

When young I once worked at a mortuary for several years. I can take blood, guts and gore but not a dirty diaper!

@Avalon take the advice....

And how would you suppose these babies were fed BEFORE bottle feeding?

Before the advent of antibiotics and the polio vaccine, it was considered pretty dangerous to expose infants to infectious diseases, so the whole idea of taking infants to restaurants, department stores, etc is relatively new. Of course, working class women had no choice but to take babies on their daily errands. But new mothers from the middle and upper classes stayed at home with the infant (other than maybe a walk to the park) for at least a few months or had a baby nurse do it for them.

 

Also, until recently, women nursed for a only few months. Nowadays, the recommendation is to do so for at least a year.

Privacy is a pretty modern concept. For the first 6 months of life breast feeding is preferable for health and development. It a very loving act - normalizing it in the public sphere is a good thing

I've seen plenty of women nursing in public places and they've always managed to to it discreetly enough I didn't actually see their breast so I've never understood why people make such a fuss about it.

[+ Lance_Navarro]

Tits don't bother me. In fact, I find it deeply hypocritical and sexist that men can be shirtless in public and women can't (though in NY, women legally can). Women can breastfeed wherever they like, as far as I'm concerned.

[Walker1]

That is what titiies are for. When I was a kid , I have milked cows and goats . It is not a human thing, but mammals. I am fine with it, just if you are in a restaurant with all eating, some discretion. For the first few years of my life, I saw my aunt breastfeed my cousin -she only covered up when men came in but was comfortable with kids and other women.

I never milked a goat but when I was a boy I milked cows. The cows would come into the barn twice a day of their own accord.

Veering further off topic, there are now automated milking machines where the cow goes in when she's ready, stands in the right spot and the machine hooks itself on and milks the cow.
