I disagree. It is all about context, and I think k it would be odd for someone to find excitement in a woman nursing a baby. - - - Updated - - - Which is completely different than satisfying a hungry child.
Nobody's saying anything about "finding excitement" in seeing a woman breastfeed. That's just your take on it... A naked nipple will always be looked at by a man, no matter what it's doing at the time. It's pretty much unavoidable. Same as if a woman with a huge fat ass walks in front of you. If there's no better ass nearby to look at, we'll look at the one in front of us. Same as cleavage, even if the woman's face is ordinary. Nothing to do with excitement. It's just male curiosity. What, don't you have that, where you come from?
No. Its not. You're right. But also the ladies need to not get offended if a guy that likes boobs looks at it and puts that sweater pillow in his spank bank. No one has a right to not be offended. Babies need to eat. So pull em out and breastfeed evey time that kid is hungry. But at the same time. I don't care if a kid is latched onto it. Im gonna look. If the lady doing the feeding doesn't want me to look then she aught to not pull it out in my view. Don't chastize me for doing what comes natural to me. Doing so is no different than some prude chastizing you for not covering up while feeding your kid.
It's not the sight that's offensive. It's the lack of consideration for other peoples' comfort that's offensive. Funny that women are usually the first to complain about men disregarding their comfort, yet they'll cheerfully do things that put men in awkward positions. Ya don't have a choice. If you did look, you'd be in trouble. If you pointedly looked away, some woman would accuse you of "being offended".
Sooner or later, a transgender, lesbian, lactose intolerant feminist will file a lawsuit claiming breast feeding triggers, or discriminates or oppresses whatever ... then it'll be left to a liberal judge ...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAohhh, man....!!!!!!! Sorry, had to laugh at that one! Perhaps you have no urges anyway. Is there a problem, TFM? You can talk about it here, we're all friends.
No. Sometimes a mother with an agenda is simply making a statement by offending parents who don't want their kids seeing a women flopping her breasts on purpose for attention. Disgusting. I breast Fed my kids. Never had to make sure others saw my nipple even when I was in public.
What difference should it make if they breast feed their babies in public or not? Have you never seen a breast before? We all (at least most of us should anyhow) know what men and women look like. What is the big deal anyhow?
A poster took my OP to mean I was offended by public breastfeeding. I'm not, but I am uncomfortable with it. This doesn't seem a radical reaction, awkwardness in the face of varying degrees of public nudity seems a reasonable human response among many possible such. However, it's almost impossible to have the conversation without being descended on by social justice warriors and "sensitive" men (almost certainly faking their feminist credentials) with the result of being left feeling like a leper. Still, I trust my reaction to be a fairly normally human one.
Wouldn't be feminism. Maybe there should be a law that allows a man to start jerking off in front of a breastfeeding woman. Masturbation is also entirely natural. Equality and all that.
If I'd never seen a breast before, how could I possibly even raise the subject? Bit of a daft question there. Look at the picture of the Brazilian MP sitting at the mic in the legislative chamber with her baby hanging on her left breast. She couldn't call up mum / sister / friend / babysitter to relieve her while she was there? She couldn't afford the crèche fees? She couldn't find any way to be relieved of her Little Bundle Of Intense Joy for that most public of moments? Of course not - she did it to make a public statement because she's an attention-seeking social justice warrior. None of those a remotely redeeming qualities.
Well, I didn't gawk or make comments, but I looked. I mean, if merely noticing bothered her, she would have covered up. Other people were passing by her at the time, and she seemed oblivious to whether anyone was looking or not.
I didn't mean to imply that. Sometimes the written word doesn't come across the way it was intended. I was just thinking out loud ... rambling like usual.
I have nothing to hide from her. She knew what kind of outspoken man with no mouthfilter she fell inlove with and decided to marry. The conversation went kinda like this. "what ya doing?" "Being an (*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*)(*) pissing off folks while making a point." "Let me see, yeah shes an idiot." "Umm she's a he." "No. He's a she "
