Oooooo Nooooooo!! It's a BOOBIE!! For shame, babytalk, for SHAME!!

I wish people would get over themselves. Eff the sexualization of breasts, and eff discrecition in breastfeeding. I wish more women would bare it all.

I used to be kind shy about breastfeeding in public because i didn't want to offend. But fuck it, i don't think i care any more. I wrote babytalk a thank you on the website!

I think it'd be good if all of us showed support, likely they're getting more angry mail then supportive. It's about time that mainstream magazines recognized.

Jeez....what the hell is wrong with people?? How did this happen that all the sudden the way people have been feeding babies FOREVER is somehow wrong and gross? It's ok only if you hide away and do it? Well with the amount of time BFing takes women would have to spend a hell of a lot of time hidden away. Trying to make a woman ashamed of breatfeeding is bullshit and totally oppressive. What I can't believe is that women are doing it to other women. God this pisses me off.

THat is a beautiful picture. There's nothing wrong with it--just goes to show how uptight people are in this country....made me sad to be around these people.

I read about that on a different website:http://msnbc.msn.com/id/14065706/?GT1=8307
and I got this quote:

Quote:
"I shredded it," said Gayle Ash, of Belton, Texas, in a telephone interview. "A breast is a breast — it's a sexual thing. He didn't need to see that."

This woman fucking pissed me off the most of all. Right breasts arent put on women to feed our children... they are put there for the benefit of men. Uh huh everyone knows that :roll:

haha you're so awesome.

I think it's ridiculous that the same amount of tit showing in a sexy bra on a playboy cover doesn't cause a fuss, but the moment a woman uses her boob for what the fuck it was intended for she causes an uproar. Fuck that. It's not gross to breastfeed your kid. It's more disgusting to me that men think boobs are for them, and some women blindly support that shit.

I got a kick of the woman saying "my husband got uncomfortable everytime he saw it" LOL!! OK!! Poor husband cant stand a baby at the boobie. I would tell the guy to grow up, personally.

That whole article, just proves that the world is full of ignorant, ignorant people.

For real. I remember beyonce's areola popping out of her dress at some awards show and no one saying a word. That woman is showing less skin than the cover of most other magazines. I wish people would get over themselves.

I find your posts to be really rude and condescending. Sorry i didn't want to post the whole site on here, in consideration for the people with dial-up.

It is so disgusting that our society is so against breastfeeding, feeding and nurturing babies, the way that they were meant to be fed, that they think it's disgusting to see a picture of a baby nursing, which is, in actuality a beatuiful thing. OMG! It's a boob! And it's not there for sexual purposes! It must be so disturbing to men! LMAo! What the hell?
