Topic: Is it okay to breastfeed in public?

Anonymous A started this discussion 14 years ago #19,300

There has been sit ins recently at various department stores, to protest their treatment of breastfeeding mothers. Was this necessary?

I don't mind the practice. Sit-ins seem like a violation of property rights, though.

So you wouldnt be horrified at seeing a breast or a nipple?

My sense of propriety would lead me to eschew such behavior, but it shouldn't be criminalized.

if you ran a business and you saw a woman breastfeeding, would you kick her from the store?

It would depend what my business was, I guess.

whoa, so at some business you might? Also, do you believe that it will hurt children if they see a nipple or babies breastfeeding?

If I was running a business that had a dress code, I would. No, it would not hurt children.

Watch me banish a nursing mother for breast feeding her baby in the shoe store, Lesbo Marcy and FANG holds a protest against Gary's Shoe Store in order to have him lift the ban.

the against side compared breast milk to feces and claimed that children would be harmed from seeing a nipple.

It's totally wrong. Property is meaningless without the right to control it. Arrest the bitches!

Just curious? How many of YOU have tasted breast milk? I mean after you reached the age of maturity.

Tasty very tasty.

To an extent.

they didnt win. they made poor arguments that pandered to the squeamishness of soft Westerners.

The other side backed down. That's a win.

I am for allowing it. Why starve the kid and deprive the mother of bonding?

Its that fear of Nipple. When Men view a woman's nipple in USA they go bonkers. Not true in Europe or Africa.

I have no clue how a Nipple ended up as erotic. Me as male...Love the Boobs. Like them in full view but hell I will take what I can get and a sexy bra with much showing does it for me. A nipple slip happens nor does that extra really do that much for me. Its nice but not like boner material.

It's okay because it's yet another case of collectivism stomping all over the rights of the individual. But this is a woman's MO. Rather than find a man they love, they'll find a man other women like and try to make him into someone they can love. Rather than choose a store with policies they approve of, they'll just demand the stores other woman shop at change. Pathetic.

I meant a formal dress code, like many clubs I have been to.
