HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA MAN ! rgambs, "Was that disgustingly sexist, racist, or both?" ...neither.
I have been around a breast feed mother quite a few times but all the women my family used a baby blanket to cover themselves up with, call us old fashioned. this reminds me of a post on Facebook, it was picture of a young gal going to her prom in dress that was pretty reviling and caption read "would you let your daughter wear this to the prom ?" well I thought if her mom had no problem showing skin why would the daughter ?
it's just the way we (my family) was raised, but I guess things are changing.

So I assume that all the men in your family cover up too, right? T-shirts at the beach, in the pool, and on hot days, correct? Since you were all raised not to "show skin"?

It's the name of a city in France. I don't know why everyone is so concerned with boobs, when the OP clearly wanted to talk about the city. Why are we so off topic? This thread should be closed.

yes, no problem

Yes my wife breast fed both of our kids i found it to be an incredible experience to see my kids getting fed from her and yes she covered her self if we happened to be out in public ....

I'm good with breAstfeeding in public. Where the mothers judgement calls for it maybe she can cover.
I have NO idea what Brestfeeding is.

yes, no problem

People need to got over
a) fear of boobies
b) obsession with boobies
c) being weird about babies eating the natural way

atleast cover up

looks like the results are either yes or at least cover up which means mostly agreeable.

we can't change the past, but yes to the future. just saying, as a child I did not understood why boys could run around with their shirt off but I could not. because of the social interpretation of the male body vs. a female body.

it's possible that women covered in the old days to protect from any germs, or to focus on just that and nothing else, who knows.

as we break down barriers it might go to a woman completely removing her shirt to breastfeed, it might not.

Had a similar discussion with friends a while ago. The conclusion i came to was that the argument that women's breasts need to be covered in public is relies on the premise that female breasts are inherently sexual. Now in this context, it seems pretty obvious that there's nothing sexual about the breasts function.

Personally I think we should consider tribal cultures where it's common for women to be topless, and religious cultures where women are expected to have their hair covered in public 100% of the time or their entire bodies covered.

It's just our culture projecting its own insecure bs onto its lady population. As per usual.

yes, no problem

To me this all appears to show in our culture the insecurities and jealousy of some men. How can that be.....well a baby upon the demand of crying because it's hungry can get the immediacy of being breast fed in public if needs be. Some men at home can't get that kind of immediate attention which then leads us to this thought process of a woman having to coving up while breast feeding in public. Just get over it already.

yes, no problem

I'm not going to lie and say that I don't find boobs sexually attractive, because I do. But it's really all about context, seeing a woman flaunting them in a tiny bikini on the beach might be very sexy, but if I see a woman feeding her baby the last thing on my mind is anything sexual.

atleast cover up

A sex education book full of illustrations depicting sexual acts has ignited a controversy after it was left at an Oregon elementary school library, according to a report late Thursday.

The principal at Hudson Park Elementary School in Rainier admitted in a letter to parents Thursday that the book was inappropriately shown to fourth-graders in the library recently, Fox 12 Oregon reported. Angry parents were told the book had been pulled from shelves.

The book in question, “It’s Perfectly Normal,” explains bodies, sex and sexual health, the station reported.

The illustrations in the book include pages of naked teens and adults, some depicting sex acts and even masturbation, the station reported.

Rainier School District officials defended “It’s Perfectly Normal,” according to Fox 12. The officials said the book has been approved for students 10 and up and is on the state-approved list of books allowed at the school.

The school district told the station a sixth grade class accidentally left the books out where a fourth grade class found and read them.

School officials said it was an honest mistake.

But parents of some of those 4th graders who spoke to Fox 12 accused the school librarian of showing them to their children, even encouraging them to take the book home.

The parents said some 4th graders who saw the book are only 9.

The letter to parents from the principal included an apology, the station reported.

“Inappropriate human development and sexuality books were disseminated to students who had library,” the letter also said, according to the station. “Procedures have been put in place to make sure this doesn’t happen again.”

District officials also told the station the librarian had been “disciplined.”

I wonder how many of these parents are O.K with Breast feeding in public ? LOL !!!!!

Drowned Out

^^ for some reason I giggled at the fact the principal chose the word 'disseminated' in his letter to parents. Sounds dirty.

So that is the sickos' problem, not that of a woman who just wants to feed a child.
