What in the world are you talking about?

Just a reminder of what "uncovered" breastfeeding looks like when a woman is wearing a nursing tank. This is a picture of the actual woman from the plane nursing her child with a nursing tank and no blanket.

Oh, yes, the high-cut sports compression bra I wear under my daily t-shirt is definitely designed to show off cleavage.

I think all the selfish women who cannot be asked to consider the rights of others while in public should just be stared and glared at. That's what you want, right?

Women who dress provocatively want to be stared and glared at or they wouldnt dress that way, so its easy to assume you wish to be treated in the same manner. It doesnt make you the least bit uncomfortable, by your own admittion. Cool.

Reality is, if people complain then you are causing a problem - whether you feel your complete selfishness about such things is all that matters or not. Sorry.

Im all for breastfeeding. Its healthier for the child, and allows a better bond between the mother and child. Im not all for the mothers getting to deside when and where it is appropriate to expose others to this practice in its purest sense.

They make breast pumps and bottles and nipples just for this very occasion, afterall. Use those if you cant be asked to cover up. Thanks.

Yeah and that is all you ever wear right? Just who are you kidding? Do tell, you've never show cleavage as an attractant or will not in the future right? And of course, you speak for all women or even a significant portion of them right? Please.

That is really weird. We are mammals. Human babies, by nature are meant to drink milk from their mother's breast. I see absolutely no reason at all to withhold this information from children. The primary purpose of breasts are for feeding.

Yeah, it is. I'm pretty casual that way and always have been.

You live in a society where the breast is a sexual part of female anatomy. Some women even complain that bilateral mastectomies completely killed their overall sexual experience. Not for their loving partners, but for themselves.

The only thing thats strange is thinking you can shove breasts - a sexual image in and of itself, that is still displayed as such in almost all forms of media, including video games played by kids - down other peoples throats. You have to demystify them first, and good luck with that, lol. The media is doing nothing at all to help you in that regard.

Again, you dont have to cover up at all. They make breast pumps and bottles and nipples just for this very occasion, afterall. Use those if you cant be asked to cover up. Thanks.

That doesn't change the fact that the primary purpose of breasts is to feed our young. Why do you think breasts are attractive to men anyway? Because they are a sign of fertility and of a woman's ability to take care of her young. That's why. Media has objectified breasts and made people forget their primary function. A parent should teach their kids about that primary purpose prior to their kid ever seeing sexual images in media. We shouldn't, as mothers made to feel shamed for using them for their intended purpose?

Have you ever tried to pump? There is more to nursing then just nutrition.

Displaying breasts is also the primary purpose of pornography. How does that get reconciled?

How do you expect people who dont wear adornments on their clothes, or cover their women from head to toe, out of a sense of humility and modesty, to percieve you and your NEED to display your breasts.

Society obviously does not care about your perception, or they wouldnt be making big money off showing people other peoples breasts.

You have to go back to the turn of the 19th century to find people who would think 'nothing' of it. I see a lot of foreign women breastfeed on my bus in the morning. They dont even think twice about making sure every part of skin is covered. No one ever tossed anything at them, as they naturally cover themselves - out of modesty.
