Thread Name: BS: Breastfeeding In Public
Subject: RE: BS: Breastfeeding In Public
This really does get better by the minute. Women feeding their children in public to protest about someone trying to prevent them from doing so are child abusers according to ake! I am glad to hear that he thinks that 'All silly women, or men, are not child abusers'. Not sure what it means though as I doubt that any child abusers would be classed as silly. I would call them evil.

I probably would support a mass nappy change as a political protest in the right circumstance. Say to protest at a public site that wilfully will not provide a proper facility for seeing to the mother and child's needs. However, while the two acts are both natural it is blatantly obvious that one is a clean and sanitary operation, causing no distress to anyone, and the other does produce unhygienic by-products that can cause issues. It is not too difficult to see how society draws up it's etiquette. Well, not too difficult for normal people anyway.
