I don't really have a problem with people doing it anywhere, but my response to "it's a perfectly natural thing!" is always - mafic Dec 30, 08:22 11
- exactly. "natural" does not mean it has to be public. -- nm - loosilu Dec 30, 08:25 5
  - note: I have NO PROBLEM with anyone breastfeeding in public. I just personally prefer not to see the whole boobie on display. -- nm - loosilu Dec 30, 08:26 4
    - yup. there's doing it in public, and then there's flaunting it in public. -- nm - znufrii Dec 30, 08:27 3
      - I saw a woman stroll around a coffee shop in brooklyn with one boob totally hanging out, and her daughter mindlessly chewing on the nip as a pacifier. - loosilu Dec 30, 08:28 2

        don't think it was there yet, but similar. -- nm - loosilu Dec 30, 08:32
- If I put a picture of me pissing on Will's empty nose socket on Facebook, they'd take it down, whether I really really had to go or not. -- nm - TFox Dec 30, 08:23 4
  - What an absolutely idiotic comparison. -- nm - Don Homer Dec 30, 08:24 3
    - It was an excuse to make a Will joke. It didn't exactly smack of serious analysis. - TFox Dec 30, 08:25 2
      - Generally speaking, jokes should be funny -- nm - oblique Dec 30, 08:26 1
        
        You should lead by example then. -- nm - TFox Dec 30, 08:26

- I'm all for breastfeeding, I really am, but like anything else, there is a vocal contingent that goes a little batshit. - TFox Dec 30, 08:21 1
  - understatment of the year in this case. -- nm - loosilu Dec 30, 08:21
