Well, its not the BF that has everyone going its that SHE looks like sh*t!!!!

Re: Maggie Gyllenhaal Boldly Breastfeeds

I'm sorry, but I think she needs to cover up more OR be the tiniest more discreet.

Yes, breastfeeding is great, we all know that. But WHY do other people need to walk by and see her ENTIRE breast hanging out.

I am a mom and am around other moms constantly, some of whom whip it out anywhere, anytime. And you know what? I'm STILL not comfortable when they do it. ONLY when they take their entire breast out and don't act discreet at all. It's not me being immature, its just my comfort level.

If its taken me this long to even be able to deal with it, why do young kids, and adults for that matter need to pass her and see everything?

At LEAST she is serving a purpose by this, but I honestly think by doing that its an attention thing..its like she WANTED to be photographed. Does anyone else agree with that? Maybe it was her way of making a statement, who knows...I don't need to see the whole deal..

Re: Maggie Gyllenhaal Boldly Breastfeeds

I think it's funny that so many people are saying she should be more discreet - I honestly don't think she's all that exposed! One breast out of the blouse, blazer STILL on and probably completely covering her breast on the other side (but that wouldn't have been as good of a picture)...if she was anymore covered up her child would not be able to nurse or he'd be suffocating. AND she's reaching for something in the other direction...gravity and all...

I don't eat my meals with a blanket over my head, why should a child??

yeah! how does she look like sh*t? I'm sorry...I forgot we're all glam girls who look FAB ourselves 24/7! (not) Maggie G. is down-to-earth, true blue New Yorker. She's casual often. Edit: just looked again...her hair is in a cute, messy bun and she's wearing a cool blazer. Looks like she's at brunch. Total sh*t, huh....

Re: Maggie Gyllenhaal Boldly Breastfeeds

she might have had her jacket over thie boob & kid and slid away for that opportune moment that the hungry photog could snap. but i'm still all for her bf-ing in public. some towns/states still ticket women for 'exposure' which is awful. (Summary of State BF-ing Laws)

Re: Maggie Gyllenhaal Boldly Breastfeeds

I can not beleive, in the year 2007, there are still states that do not "allow" women to BF their child in public!!

While I am not a big BF fan, I would never tell a woman that she cant BF or act like its indecent!!!

Re: Maggie Gyllenhaal Boldly Breastfeeds

Good for her......

Re: Maggie Gyllenhaal Boldly Breastfeeds

I think it's funny that if she did flash them to a crowd, it probably wouldn't cause as much of a stir!

She's nursing her child - that's what they're there for!

What if she was sitting there, braless, with a sheer top on, there wouldn't be any "debate".

for someone who doesnt want to argue whats with the and the comment about me looking glam all the time?
Just b/c I dont think she looks good doesnt mean "I" always look good- and you know for sure

so I guess you have never said someone especially a celeb looks bad or that outfit looks like sh*t cause its not your style- that you would expect someone to jump on you and say- what? what do you mean they look bad I guess you look glam all the time?

WHATEVER!! I have said that a few celebs does not look nice but not once did I say they look like sh&t.

First of all, everyone has their dress down days but I guess you do not because you are the Queen of GLAM. Anyway I am so done with this argument. Your comment was just out of line if you ask me.

Re: Maggie Gyllenhaal Boldly Breastfeeds

i think she should buy a blanket

its one thing to breastfeed in public and one thing to call attention to yourself while doing so. its like she wants a show or something.

she shoudl really be a bit more discreet.

thats all the world needs is an 8 -13 old boy to walk by and see.

I apologize, but I must respectfully disagree with you here.

I don't think she was looking for a show. I think she wanted to feed her kid and didn't really care who saw her doing it.

I breastfed both my children. And I did it in public whenever they happened to be hungry. I was far more discreet - but only because it made me feel more comfortable. Comfortable mommy = better breast milk flow.

And as to the 8-13 year old boy walking by... I am sure that you meant that to be facetious - but really - what would be wrong with that? I think it would do a world of good if more kids really understand that breasts were not merely playthings attached to a woman's body. Any mother who lets her kid open a National Geographic magazine will see FAR more than what this woman showed!

ITA! in addition, I cant quite understand that it is ok to for example show so many gory things on tv (all the CSI and other crime shows) but god forbid someone showed a boob! please sometimes I just dont get it

Re: Maggie Gyllenhaal Boldly Breastfeeds

boobs seem to be okay when they are pretty and pert and playboy-luscious. If they are real and useful they are horrid to look at. Reminds me of the dove campaign to redefine beauty...

Re: Maggie Gyllenhaal Boldly Breastfeeds

i also think she should of covered herself with a blanket - being that she was in a very public place - there is a discreet way of breastfeeding and it looks like her boob is just hanging out for everyone to see.

Im all for breastfeeding - but would never have my boob hanging out like that in public - they are lots of pervs out there.
