how about keeping your boobies to yourself in public places (even the beach, we can cover the girls enough there too)

in Europe (and I know people bring up the european model a lot but it's relevant) it IS what is IS. it does what it does.



Maybe nudity is celebrated there, but breastfeeding certainly is not- esp in England (though 60% of moms BF, seeing it in public is rare), France, and rural ireland, to name a few.



As someone who actually lives in a "European" country, and the one that you speak of I would have to say that I see women BF'ing everywhere I go, on a regular basis. The other day I was in Boots the Chemist and a lady was walking around BF'ing, I also saw a lady with a baby on the boob in the Tate Modern yesterday. I see women BF'ing constantly, especially at the mall! And Boots does have a very nice mother and baby room, but most women just want to do it whenever they feel like doing it! And the Brits freaking love to be naked...especially Rubgy players.

BF is not seen in public in France. One of the lowest rate of BF in Europe.



hmmm interesting. perhaps in certain areas? or maybe I am mistaken. thanks Sophie.



I am talking about big cities (Paris). I don't know the rural areas.

Breast exposure in France is on the beach and on TV/billboards (commercials, movies, etc...).

France is actually with Ireland (I think!) one of the European country than BF the least in %. I believe it's 50%.

I'm one of the posters who said that a woman should be able to breastfeed whenever, wherever, and you know what? I totally agree with you. By bringing up women who expose themselves in a sexual manner, I wasn't trying to say that's wrong, but exposure during breastfeeding should be ok. I was trying to make the point that it just doesn't make sense that people find it totally acceptable for a woman to show her goods on the street, or on the cover of a magazing, but not ok for the purpose of feeding her child.

I totally agree with you - I think this country is backwards, and far too conservative when it comes to sexuality. It boggles my mind that family advocacy groups will rally about too much sexuality here and there, but make no mention of the inordinate amount of violence on TV during the exact hours that children watch. I really do wish that we would follow the european model more closely, where violence is a big NO NO, but sexuality, and the natural beauty of the human body is no big deal.



Well said. You know I agree with this a million percent....

I think we need to move on...show your ta tas or keep em covered. Don't matter to me!!! Sorry, just trying to cheer everyone up. BUT let me say this...when I was little, like 8 or 9, my parents had company over and the woman started nursing right there in front of me. I was really confused and slightly like...HUH? I asked my mom what she was doing. Maybe it was b/c my mom of course hadn't spoken to me about it yet. I don't know.

And PS: I'm anti mega boobage on celebs, too. Be classy, not A*ssy.

I think there's time and place for everything...I'm all pro revealing sexy classy cleavage when you're going out in the evening to a club, bar or dinner, but I don't find it appropriate at work. As far as breastfeeding, you will not see me whipping out my tatas in public and feeding my son...if I have to do it in public (I'm planning on introducing the bottle for this) I will try to do so discreetly so that I don't flash anyone or make people feel uncomfortable...but thats just me.

But it amazes me how America is so hypocritical about this issue...its like on one end it is so conservative about it and how wrong it is to expose yourself and yadi yada and yet all we see in fashion and the media is boobage and a$$...Chat Icon and that's allowed and ok...I just don't comprehend it...BTW, this is my personal opinion.

I'll answer here.

Sometimes it's the cleavage-bared breasts that help MAKE the babies that suck on the breast that is only to be exposed in the most natural, beautiful, life-sustaining way.
