An Exhibitionist Or An Attempt At Trying To Get Some Sort Of Message Over?

[anotheoldgit]

If the latter, please explain what could that message possibly be?

[ummmm]

Breastfeeding has been done to death, don't you think.

The message is that it's a natural thing to do and women should be free to do it without being judged.

[Sqad]

The message IS as it is always
"Look at me, I am a mother of the modern era, showing you that i can feed a baby in public....so there!"

[Islay]

I don't see what the issue is. It is breastfeeding the most natural thing in the world - why do men get so worked up about it, is it because they cannot see past the sexual nature.

[ummmm]

You wonder how page 3 girls did so well in their heyday.

[Sqad]

" It is breastfeeding the most natural thing in the world - why do men get so worked up about it,"

Not just men.......some women also feel that it lacks......modesty.

Yes" yes! that is the stock answer.."It is the most natural thing in the world"....we ALL know that, but in public?

[Islay]

She wasn't in public she was at home! I frequently go out with friends that breast feed in public and I show more breast than they do!

[Sqad]

O.K

[Islay]

OK here is a question - a woman is out in public (lord above)with a baby and toddler and her baby needs feeding what is she supposed to do, take her and all her belongings plus baby and toddler and try and find a disgusting toilet to feed her baby in?

[Sqad]

Islay....that is indeed a mystery which has never been solved.

Islay

/// She wasn't in public she was at home! ///

Yes but she chose to post a photo on Instagram, WHY?

/// I frequently go out with friends that breast feed in public and I show more breast than they do! ///

Then the question must be, why do you?

Is it because men (in your words) get so worked up about it, and they cannot see past the sexual nature?

As a mere man, I am somewhat nervous about entering this debate, but........I don't mind if anyone breastfeeds a baby in my presence.

But this child appears to be over 2 years old....shouldn't it be on solid food by now ?

[naomi24]

An exhibitionist.

[Islay]

Why do I show my boobs, because I am proud of them so if I want to show cleavage why shouldn't I!!!

[THECORBYLOON]

ANOTHEOLDGIT, what offends you about wee ones being breastfed in public?

/// ANOTHEOLDGIT, what offends you about wee ones being breastfed in public? ///

Have I made any reference to that untruth on this thread?

This is about a certain 'model' going to the trouble of posting a picture of herself feeding her almost 3 year old.

[mikey4444]

But if the child is over 2 years of age, why is she still breastfeeding it at all ?

As some of our feminist ladies would say "Because she can".

[Islay]

Mikey because she chooses too.

[mikey4444]

Islay....but she might "choose to" for another 2-3 years. What I am asking is why hasn't she weaned the baby ?
