should women breast feed in public or go some where private? (Page 20) Fog Swept Glade: Nourishment is done indoors. I don‘t want to look at some slag‘s teat at a restaraunt. Hardly want their brats there. I don‘t want to see that same teat at a bus stop or a bar. Babies & boobies are not bad, they are very nice. They both excrete, are unusually rounded or otherwise soft.  Nicotina: @Fog Swept Glade - The way you speak about women is all the evidence needed to dismiss your opinion as inconsequential. Fog Swept Glade: Irrelevant. I haven‘t any glands in my breasts that make food. (Edited by Fog Swept Glade)  Billie Ingle: Some babies can't have any other milk than breast milk because of an allergy but know this is a cycle of life so why should we need to be disturbed if a woman takes a boob out let her baby suck her nipple to feed it. But in the past, today and even future women would always be seen as bad, wear a skirt and a bit cleavage and she is a prostitute, do they flirt oh she is a filthy slut. Does a girl eat a banana or an ice cream how many guys are perving on her it is like a woman can't do anything or they have a bad view on her? Guys walk in bare chests but a woman can't so is it so bad if we take 1 boob but 1 out to only feed a child, not to be rude but why shall a woman buy that expensive bottle milk if she has all that her child needs in her boob, women had to strife in the past to get the right to vote, work, do jobs that males do because we were seen as the weaker gender but women aren't weak you can kick me between my leg i won't cry and feel like I'm dying in pain but the image from males made women look weak because they always thought they are stronger and much better than a woman. Like the sexual view 2 guys is ewwwww  but if 2 women are making love they are from  mmmmm hot what is so different it is also love between 2 persons from the same gender, they need to respect more and be more tolerant to women, not that we are saying yeah i take my tit out look everyone how my child sucks it no we do because or baby need to drink and if we give breastmilk they can get stronger and grow. I also don't like some things but know you also was a baby once that maybe got breastmilk and what is worse a woman giving her baby a breast or if they change the diaper next to you and you get that nice Armani perfume smell then i prefer they let a child drink of a tit and btw by most you don't see, i was once in the park and a woman gave breastfeed but had a nursing towel so you didn't saw anything so why should i be from eeew wtf, not needful for anything freshveggies: Nobody should make that decision except the baby. I eat when I am hungry, and I can be a messy eater. Especially when I am eating out of boredom. At least babies aren't gluttonous slobs, plus who cares. It really is no more awkward than when people pick their underwear out of their crack. Go do that in private, Chuck! NoDreamcatcher: I think the "baby" would be happier if you go somewhere it is quiet and private. Who care what you or they think. Angry Beaver: "Fog Swept Glade: Nourishment is done indoors" Not heard of Al Fresco fog? lol Knew his brother Bob, top bloke  prof351: A woman should feed her child where ever she feels comfortable doing so. It's a natural beautiful thing to see a mother nursing her child. Anyone who thinks its anything other than that clearly has issues of their own.  hornchurchmale: as long as great is covered and discretion observed thatching wrong with it anywhere! was not that long ago people didn't hesitate to drop pants /knickers to empty Bowels as well as pee in public! then Victorians brought in hide away .covering bodies etc which is where we get spend a pent from as the 'penny 'coin toilets. came from a man with a ring and curtain attached and a large bucket stood on street corners. anybody desperate gave him a penny and stepped inside curtained ring.. did business and left ! early romans etc simply squatted in a semi circle on edge of a paving stone for bum support and. did it! so basic humanity needs of nature are normal just that in todays society we think of this an abhorrent . you even have religions that insist on covering full bodies! you can't make this up. go do research .  Wonderful Wally: Its perfectly naturual to breast feed. However like pooping not everyone wants to see it. Nicotina: Please stop comparing a child being nourished with defecting. If anything, compare breastfeeding with bottle feeding. If a breast offends you then you need to reassess your values. Billie Ingle: If we are hungry we eat, a baby can't say mommy I'm hungry give my bottle they ask milk on unexpected moments, not each woman has a bottle so why is it so bad if she hangs her child on her boob and let it eat. if guys pee in public do we need also to say ewww wtf, no if you need to pee on high emergency pee so long you do on a place that doesn't bother others. Most women give the breast you even don't see Fog Swept Glade: Guys pee behind the garage as they saw it & get warrants that way. They spit out side too & must hide the tobacco from mom.  Perspicuity: More generally (as Billie suggests) we need to stop being so childishly focused on body functions and body parts. they are part of nature and part of our natural endowment. Perhaps we should be more concerned with other, more harmful behaviors. Seeing a nipple never damaged anyone. Wonderful Wally: I find it a little funny that when comparing this to bathroom breaks that people are saying "Yes, we should all go in public for everyone to watch". hornchurchmale: everybody will have own views. mostly formed by way they were brought up and in what environment etc . nothing wrong with. what nature gave us or how we function but society. does apply rules . we were after all born naked but we do not walk around naked unless with like minded adults and in private areas such as own homes. normal bodily functions such as defecating or urinating are these days deemed private. for most part. so with feeding abbey form a breast ..nothing wrong with that at all but some will be offended and think it ought tp be done in privacy . we all need a modicum of respect for others views even they don't align with our own. so many mothers whom choose to breast feed an hungry baby and can't or do not want to find private's area away from others eyes will use a shawl or blanket to simply shroud event . though others may be aware what is going on it allows that person contact mother to baby and at same time avoids any offence to those whom MAY find such. activities ought top be done in private .  Zanjan: By all means, take the baby to a private location for feeding, if you can do that in 3 minutes. Milk goes through a baby's stomach super fast so, when it's on empty, the baby screams because it's really painful. Babies need the milk warmed - can you plug in a bottle warmer on the bus or anywhere in a store? Mothers need a clean place to feed their babies - not a washroom or back alley. Have you tried feeding a baby while standing the whole time? Why are you looking at any woman's breast??? What sort of person doesn't divert their eyes from whatever they find offensive or disgusting? Twice, I've seen a mother nursing her baby without benefit of a germ-screening shawl; and, twice I've seen a mother bring her measle- infected children into a cafe. Your stares wont change her behaviour. There are all kinds of people in society - we should check ourselves before finding fault with somebody else. I know places that won't sell peanuts or coconut or permit perfume because a couple of people out of tens of thousands are allergic - all society must bend to the few. This shows society is lacking in adaptive skills. Thus, it will die. hornchurchmale: the few being a good point. Majority seem to be sidelined in all areas of life. though it may be nice .human and warming etc to assist minority it isn't always possible or good to bend to include all. eg disabled persons have had buses .shops .hotels etc all made user friendly . nothing worn with society trying to be all inclusive but imagine trying to have a disabled person fly an aircraft in a ware zone. where you need only the very best fittest etc political correctness is Fien to a point . its a question of where we draw that line ashes days that creates issues. latest being school uniforms ! Zanjan: "... disabled persons have had buses .shops .hotels etc all made user friendly ." Once the bulk of children were able to get an education higher than elementary school, they could work in competitive environments. With the breakdown of the nuclear family and distance between job opportunities, adults lived alone, without help from relatives. Enter technology that permitted handicapped individuals to live independently and maintain employment. The materially enlightened *urban* generations learned that each and every one of us will eventually become handi-capped at any moment and not be able to pay someone to assist. They learned that Accessibility features attract more business and paying customers while increasing the value of a property. It's a Billion Dollar Bonanza! How many are sitting around, thinking "breastfeeding" could happen to me? I'm not opposed to school uniforms - the list of advantages to all, economically, mentally and socially, is 100% in favor of the children and parents. hornchurchmale: I have been to many schools and one where uniform was mandatory but parents can't afford to buy for me we got a school grant. though does make you feel more inclusive and removes much of that poor look and feel it. will not. fully give a level playing field due to other factors cut as shoes. designer stuff. Phones. even though everybody else has briefcases in leather I had to make do with a plastic zip edge large carry all. so much better to have a uniform.
