When did breastfeeding become the now attention whoring ?? [pic]
 

Not the first time i've read a story like this lately...

yummy yummy!

I'm sorry, what exactly are we complaining about here?

I would suck that teeet too :)

Let me fix that for you, :Graucho

I'd like to answer you, but I'd best not in case my answer upsets someone and gets me banned :2 cents:

No shit; I never get it why anyone would be upset about a mother breastfeeding her kid.

that there is no sharing :disgust

Because he is from Scotland and they are pretty backward up there

I'll have what he's having.

Looks good to me... I'll take some.

the fact that 'why' I'm guessing is the OP's point. No-one is complining about public breastfeeding, but why say 'look at me!! I breastfeed! Fuck the haters (when there aren't any anyway)!'

Daft as fuck. but everyone is expected to say Zomg, how beautiful and empowering and natural and what a woman blahblahblah

She couldn't have said thanks without dressing up like that? To prove a point that doesn't need proving in the first place?

=====================================

That's my guess as to what the 'complaint' is - her being an attention whore, rather than how it's already been misinterpreted in this thread as some kind of rant about breastfeeding

"proudly posed in her graduation gown and mortarboard while she breastfed her then six-week-old son"

No one is complaining.... but what is she so proud of? and why is she posing while breast feeding anyway? oh, that's right, "attention whoring" like the OP suggested...

You missed the point of the thread...

Riiiiight!

At least you know Scotland is "up there" i suppose... :1orglaugh

She/they are feeding their child!
If you have a problem with that, move to Afganistan or something...

There's a fucking baby in the way!

nobody has a problem with that. Not in this thread anyway.

"Look at me! I'm doing something women have been doing since the beginning of time!" is what people have a problem with. You breastfeed your kid? whoop de fucking whoo, who fucking cares :2 cents:

doesn't seem able to take a picture? i suppose she could have been like, "NOW is my chance to attention whore my breast feeding across the world!

.. here! take my camera and take a picture quick! i will strike 'freshly graduated proud' pose to further enrage the world!'

No doubt... Why does caring for/feeding your child have to me made into a weird "sexual" thing? Because its not. Its a completely NATURAL thing...

Any time a chick wants to pull out her titties in public I am all for it.

:1orglaugh :thumbsup

i see two breasteses

right, which everyone knows, so why be an attention whore whilst under the notion you are provong some point, when that point doesn't even exist in the first place?

i wonder if there is a line up behind the kid?

So is taking a shit!

Scratching my balls is natural but I tend to do it out of the public eye.

Mine get tucked in my socks so it looks like I am scratching my foot.

That was what an article writer decided to say about her. What we know she said, and the only real insight we have to her feelings, is that she was thankful that the university supported her during her studies.

If anything I would guess she was proud to be a graduate and a mother. Maybe she had more pride in her school that they supported her during her studies. But I would bet the monies this was not a picture that says "in your face, haters" or "look at me" or anything like that.

The problem isn't so much that people take issue with public breastfeeding... it's that the moms get mad when people look at them, which then calls into question why people then get annoyed at public breastfeeding.

Personally I don't care if someone is annoyed with me for looking at them. You are out in public, you whip it out, you are going to get looked at.

Whats your point?

Nice tits on this mother

It's called being courteous to others. Women have been breast feeding in public for years. Seems now some want to whip their tit out any old place and then get pissed if you stare at them or are asked to be courteous to other people in the place

And there we have it... :2 cents:


:)

nice big naturals

ok so I was wrong. You really care if a woman breastfeeds in front of you? You see it as different than if she was bottle-feeding her kid?

There's no 'courtesy' to show, as it's a non-issue, to any sane people. Unless I'm reading it wrong, in which case I apologise.

Just spit up my coffee onto my keyboard!! :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh :1orglaugh


Just Dave

Growing up, women breastfed in public all the time. However they generally had a shawl over their shoulder to cover it up. I say if you wanna breastfeed with one out in the open, then why stop there? Pull the other one out so we can see them both.
