I'm quite offended by the absolutely ignorant stances on breastfeeding I've seen in this thread. I can only guess it's because your mothers never breastfed you. -.-

 

 

 

It's such a hugely important part of the development of children, and it always depresses me to see a two month old being forced to drink some formula crap out of a bottle. Breastfed babies have all the nutrition they need, no deficiencies there. They should be drinking breastmilk even after they start eating solid foods. Everything else should be added to that, or else these babies will develop slow witted, malnourished, and a sharply lowered immune system. Not to mention the lack of one on one contact it can give, after that point, there's no way to fix bonds that were never created. As far as I'm concerned, the only reasons babies should be formula/bottle fed would be for a medical problem, like if they were to have galactosemia or something, as a baby cousin of mine did, and that was quite a tragedy.

 

 

 

If you don't like the public boobies, grow up. Yeesh.

Ryder basically ended all logical discussion. He wins. If any more convincing needs to be made to prove it to you, then you are most likely too sensitive to be allowed to enter most cities. Thank you, and good-bye.

there IS a shawl type thing that covers you up when you breastfeed

 

 

 

If you're paranoid to the point that you need one of those, you probaly shouldn't have children. This is one of the few times I have to side with goddess, It's natural, and trust me you can barely see anything, so it''s impossible to be offended.

how is having one showing that you shouldn't have children? it's feeding your child when it's hungry, protecting yourself from perverts, and (if you're disgusted by public breatfeeding) you don't ever have to see the breasts

 

 

 

everyone except the pervert wins

Haha, glad to see people thinking the way I do.

 

 

 

Hell, you don't need a shawl. A breastfeeding mother just needs to lift her shirt up a little. Covering any more than that would smother the baby. They have those little upturned noses to let them breath whilst nursing; you can't cover up their heads like that. Most living things need abundant oxygen.

 

 

 

Any pervert who's aroused by a nursing mother needs to have their head punched in. Can't get much sicker than that.

Agrees, \'

 

 

 

The perverts have the problem not the mummy and the baby, also them people that go "tutt tutt" at a bit of boobie they got body hangups, the mummy aint gonna sit there like a page 3 model, she is simply feeding her baby, nothing to gawp at in that, <3:

Erm... I would be wearing a shawl because it will take more than just lifting my shirt up a little for my poor baby boy to get anywhere near his food source. He'll die in the wrath of my Madonna cones.

 

 

 

You should try having a pair before suggesting what we do lol

What he's saying is the shawl might smother the baby as it's feeding. food and oxygen are equally important, but a baby can live longer without food than it can without oxygen if it has a shawl blocking it's airways while it's suckling.

It can be done very easily without as much drama as you're making it out to be. As grateful as women are for the pair of you being on our side, we don't need 2 teenage boys deciding what the best feeding method is for us or our babies.

Please don't insult me... I'm not an idiot lol

I know, i'm just saying.... It was to emphasise the point. Sorry if it made me sound like an idiot but i'm just saying...

 

 

 

And i know that the mother knows best in these situations, you just need to find out how things work when you're in that situation. Don't put all your eggs in one basket until you know the road ahead ;)

Thanks for the concern but I've already been down that road with other new born babies.

K, this is how it's gonna work.

 

 

 

We are gonna put you, and everyone else who wants to go along too, on a boat to an island. It is here where you will create your own society, with your own views, since it seems that you can't accept something that is clearly natural.

 

 

 

Oh, and I'm sure there will be no sex or reproduction on that island because most females probably share the same viewpoint as Goddess.

 

 

 

kthxbai.

 

 

 

Ah, but one having their own views and opinions is clearly natural too, therefore, shouldn't you be put on boat? Why should people who have different opinions be condemned to live in solitude with each other away from society?

 

 

 

Personally, I think mothers should go to the bathroom and take care of baby business there. Some places even have designated mothers rooms, how nice ::'

I don't think he was being literal about the boat. #-o

 

 

 

I think he means that everyone else in the world believes breastfeeding is ok, especially mothers. He's just saying that it's a natural thing to do, and they shouldn't be told to go somewhere else to feed their baby. He also implied that if you don't learn, soon, that it's ok, then you're not going to be very popular among the ladies because "they share the same viewpoint as Goddess." :thumbup:

Ok, if you're gonna play the "Double natural" card, we'll break it down a little further. Breastfeeding is a more natural instinct than intelligent thought and forming your own opinions. Look at most mammals, which react using the most basic form of thought, instinct. That instinct is to breastfeed their pups/kids/whatever.

 

 

 

So if we're going by naturality, breastfeeding is more natural than thought, seeing as it stems from the most basic form of thought, instinct.

 

 

 

Though I don't really think the boat was a literal conception.

I may not be lactating, but I was, for all intents and purposes, a third parent for several children, and I have seen this happening. :P

 

 

 

What I'm saying is that a breastfeeding mother doesn't need to, like, pull her shirt up over her head to get the baby fed, all that needs to be done is pulling a breast out enough for the baby to get at the nipple, and still be able to breath. I'd give a visual diagram to show the way I mean, but, you know. :lol: Maybe I have a lesser idea of how much skin showing is too much, but really, it shouldn't matter, for the baby's sake.

What the hell is the problem?!

 

 

 

As far as i know, the milk from a woman breast is far more nutrisous (spelling?) than something you buy.

 

 

 

My older sis had two kids, both has moved onto "normal food", but she has breastfeeded them in my presence (been in the same room), i look the other way or just pick up a magazine.. or something, no problem there!

 

Also, my brother's wife has breastfeeded in my presence, i do the same thing there; look the other way.. pick up a magazine or do something else.

 

 

 

I don't have a problem at all with a mother breastfeeding her kid in the public, it's natrual!

J'adore aussi le sexe et les snuff movies

Je trouve que ce sont des purs moments de vie

Je ne me reconnais plus dans les gens

Je suis juste un cas désespérant

Et comme personne ne viendra me réclamer

Je terminerai comme un objet retrouvé

For the whole "it's natural" argument, having sex, using the bathroom, nudity, and picking your nose are all natural too. Like I said before, it's social etiquette. Some may find those things offensive, others may not. Just because there is no law stating I am not allowed to pick my nose, that doesn't mean I should be doing it in front of everyone in a fancy restaurant. It's unappetizing to others and that should be respected - no matter how natural it is.

 

 

 

I understand a baby must eat, but there's nothing from stopping the mother from taking care of it somewhere else. It's just the fact that the mother doesn't want to - she doesn't care that it offends others. Well, sorry but a person doesn't choose to be disgusted by it or not. The mother does make the choice to care or not.

You still haven't answered my question. Provide evidence/sources or even a decent argument on why both should be legal. Saying it makes sense to you isn't a logical explanation. You haven't even come up with one logical defense to your argument.

I understand that you must eat but there's nothing stopping you from turning your head and looking the other way or going some place else. It's just the fact that you don't want to. You don't care that it offends mothers. Well sorry but you can choose whether to turn away or not. The person staring and looking does make the choice to care or not, just as they make the choice to look or not.

 

 

 

Social etiquette works for both parties, Zierro.
