The problem is that our culture has been taught that a woman's breasts are sexual and therefore if a woman exposes her breasts in public even to feed her child, she is doing something wrong. What is wrong is our perception of why women have breasts. We need retraining as a society that the purpose of a woman's breasts is not to sell cars or beer or to attract men but to provide nourishment and care for her child. Our culture needs to change it's collective mentality to accepting and encouraging women to nurse their young children openly and often, while refuting marketers who try to misuse the beauty of women's breasts in their advertising.
nope
Only because people make it one.
I have been doing so and have not seen any change in my child's behavior or health. The seller has assured it is safe to drink while breastfeeding.
Something that is obscene to me may not be obscene to another person.
It is not a crime to breastfeed in public areas. Many states, New York for example, have laws protecting breastfeeding mothers.
Because Breastfeeding is cleaner, safer, healthier and quicker then formula feeding and if a baby is hungry while out in public, less annoying as well.
There are no social moral or aesthetic objections for breastfeeding in public just as there are none of these issues that arise for any one eating in public. AS a matter of fact if any one person that had an idea of an objection towards the aesthetics of breastfeeding in public should pop down to there nearest fast food outlet and find many adults to provide them with much more fuel for "objections". A breastfeeding baby is a quiet, tidy little eater who produces a minimal amount of waste. On the whole they are very discreet and the majority of the time most people are unaware of a feed when it occurs. The only social implications evident are positive ones. As the more in the public eye that breastfeeding becomes the more popular an option it will be and this can only lead to an improvement in the health of society, as the evidence for the health benefits of breastfeeding are well documented. As regards the moral objections for breastfeeding in public i would argue that it is morally wrong to consider the breasts as purely an object for sexual gratification and therefore those who find the act of breastfeeding in public as offensive are morally poorly informed. Breastfeeding is nothing less than a wonderful, caring act that provides gold standard nutrition and a bond between mother and baby that will promote a positive effect on mental heath for both mother and infant. Therefore i would advise as a mother of three, a nurse and a midwife, if any person had any objections to a woman breastfeeding in public they may want to allow themselves to become better informed as it is only through true ignorance that a person could do anything other than congratulate a woman for choosing what society, medical professionals and nature has deemed the best way to care for her infant.
