I'll admit that I'm not fond of watching people go full-boobs out to nurse, but hey... it's one of the most natural things a mother can do, feeding her kid.... and kids have to eat at inconvenient times now and then.
Disney is cool with it.
Peeing is also natural and happens at inconvenient times, your argument against it is only that there is a social stigma about seeing penises and vaginas, but I would argue that the same stigma exists of breasts. it is simply to a less extent.
Nothing wrong with breastfeeding, nothing wrong with breastfeeding in public.
HOWEVER, you are going to attract attention. You cannot control or legislate that. As long as the nursing mother doesn't get all offended about people looking, go right ahead.
People who ARE offended by a nursing mother? Who cares?

That wasn't the only argument. If she had been squirting her milk on the ground, I would not have supported her.

Urinating is normal too, but one doesn't whip it out and display their parts in front of others or they end up on the sexual offender's list.
Stop comparing urinating to breast feeding, eating to excreting and a penis to a breast.
BTW I have seen more than my share of men urinating in public places.

Many times, as I have said, we had to get out of line with our son. It is part of parenting.
We no longer go to Disney for a variety of reasons, a lot having to do with the disrespect, crudeness and general behavior of others.
There is a right way to do something and a wrong way, she chose the wrong way. This makes it more difficult for those that choose the right way, not flipping out both of their teats in a public venue where children are present. Bet the younger boys enjoyed this more than the nursing 10 month old.
I'm not sure where you got she whipped out both breasts. We see a picture of a child held against its mothers bosom, for lack of a better word, she had on a tank top. I saw a bit much cleavage but not two exposed breasts. Anyway who is to say there is a right or wrong way and why should she have to get out of line and go to a designated area if she doesn't want to. Did you acknowledge the post showing pre 1950's (photos) where breast feeding in public with exposed boobage was perfectly normal (the right way). Social mores change. We are finally viewing pregnancy, birth and breast feeding as natural and normal functions to be celebrated instead of pushing them back into dark corners as some mysterious thing we dare not look at.
That boy looks a bit old for breast feeding and nobody really wants to see that womans flabby breasts out in public.
What next naked fat people walking down the street.
A ten month old is not to old to breast feed.
Sorry but people are not held to exist for the aesthetic indulgences of others. If you dont want to see offending sites look away.
I was at a FF place to get my gs something to eat. I looked over and a larger man was bent over a few tables away. Nearly full hairy monty I saw. No one wants to see that either. I'm not crazy about many of the uncovered body parts I encounter on a daily basis, the tats, purple, blue, green hair, piercings, cleavage, guts, butt cracks or biscuit bottoms but we all have to live in this world together and if I want people to respect my choices I must respect theirs.
Only in America where we fake freedom and fake morality. She's just breastfeeding her kid.
Breastfeeding isn't exempt from someone whose boobs aren't attractive, or someone who is overweight. Breastfeeding is a great way to lose after pregnancy weight, and it saves a ton of money. It is healthy, why do we hate to see it so much?
She wasn's making a scene and didn't expect it to go viral. She was just sharing it with breastfeeding moms. Big deal, there's nothing to judge her for, it's perfectly legal.
So you would be OK with me, in a perfectly natural way of course, taking my penis out and urinating next to The Peter Pan Ride?
