Breastfeeding in public

[abc]

Are you not allowed to fart on buses

No, carries a 15 year jail term.

On topic: nothing wrong with this at all. Some people here are disgusted by woman breast feeding yet seem to not moan about a man and a woman kissing in public, people grinding each other in clubs, films showing hard core porn, popular TV shows like Game of Thrones full of nakedness... yet a woman breastfeeding is unacceptable? Hell I have seen naked old ladies on a beach, a guy fingering his girl friend on the beach and I haven't given a crap.

I am starting to think some people just moan for the sake of moaning.

Why are you comparing sitting on a beach in skimpy clothes to pulling your breast out in public.

It's almost like you haven't read the debate at all because I even brought that example up saying that didn't bother me. Why? The context of it.

Well that is the whole argument much as it is (rightly) socially unacceptable to fart in public, to itch your crack and ballsack in public or to cough without covering your mouth in public. I'm objecting to the entire and rather bizzare push by bored feminists and social justice warriors to make pulling your breasts out in public socially acceptable: there's a time and a place for it and it isn't on the 311 bus.

Why are you comparing farting in public with breastfeeding?

Unless there's some magical new method of feeding infants which I haven't heard of yet, the two are totally different and that point is utterly irrelevant?

To exemplify how there's certain things that are "natural" which you don't tend to do in public out of respect for others. Like whipping out a breast on the bus.

Breastfeeding should be a public thing because how is it acceptable for a girl to show her her breasts for a sexy look. You all should be grateful that your mother even fed you. I will have no shame when the time comes because I see men running shirtless and I feel uncomfortable, but I won't ever say ewww put your nipples away

I also compared it to things like nakedness on TV Shows etc but you ignored that? You are extremely selective which is not this works.

A baby needs to be fed, let them be. It's not as if no one has seen breasts.

I believe in a watershed on television... a voluntary one at that but still the principle of a watershed.

This weird fetish to have absolutely everything 'accepted' in society is so bizzare.

Doesn't need to be in public.

It's not all "me me me my needs my wants grant me it" - there's something called consideration for other people in public or on transport for example when a baby is "naturally" crying, responsible mothers will take the baby away from people because that's being considerate to other members of the general public.

So you do not watch TV after 9pm?

Sometimes it cannot be helped. I highly doubt a woman thinks "oh my baby needs to be breastfed, lets go out on the street to do it". No. It only occurs when the woman is traveling and therefore has to breastfeed the baby. Unless you propose no woman with a baby who needs to be breastfed should ever travel? Or should she let the baby starve and therefore cry - but if this happens she would be being inconsiderate to the general public. I guess a woman with a baby cannot win?

Besides, I have only seen like 2-3 women breastfeed in public in like a decade (and I travel A LOT). This is hardly a major issue.

There is no weird fetish to accept everything, instead it seems people are trying to segregate and isolate others. Given that you support UKIP this does not surprise me.

I'd say in limited situations you shouldn't do it... e.g....a..business..meeting...why you would have a child there...i cannot answer, but yes I don't really see a problem with it at all.

She could make up a formula via powder or prepare some the night before.... as family members of mine have done raising their children. I mean it reallyyyyyyyyyyyy isn't that hard to do and frankly if that's beyond some woman to plan that far ahead then she shouldn't be raising children.

I never said it was a major issue. The people who make a fuss about it and who keep bringing it up in public debates tend to be pro-breastfeeding campaigners who seem hellbent on having the rest of us think breastfeeding in public is wonderful. It's time somebody stated an objection to it.

I do not like it nor do some other people, we find it inappropiate.

You've just exemplified it there. All I am doing is saying I find it bad manners to breastfeed in a public place and you go and compare it to segregation and isolation when I have even said I barely care and wouldn't get the law involved. I don't find it good manners and you'll just have to accept it.

As usual it is those who profess to be most tolerant (like you) bringing out the insults/demonisation against those who simply disagree with you.
