When my sister in law breastfed at home, I didn't see anything either -- no problem. The second I see something though, big problem! I don't want to see your boobs!

Breastfeeding in public is protected by the federal government

The woman in the video was breastfeeding like the woman on the left, so what's your problem with her? Also, she was on a bench in a corner, as out of the way as she could get. I'm just not seeing what you're seeing. Can you explain?

I don't want to see your boobs either, but the world does not revolve around us, this is the thing.

I don't think we should shame these nursing moms, it is not like they are seeking attention or free sex.

In my opinion, some men shouldn't be wearing speedo to the beach, lol, but who am I to judge?

I agree with you about men in speedos on the beach. Save that for France! Can't we all just show a little sensitivity toward our fellow humans and quit subjecting them to unwanted nudity?

She was being way more exhibitionist.

yes, just tell the infant who can fully understand to wait. Instead let them cry and scream because their hungry. A few minutes. Sure that's all it takes to nurse. Even if they have to wait 20-30 minutes, wait. Why? Because they might offend someone. Get over yourself.
