Acting like a ho and hiding behind the shield of "I'm just breastfeeding...it's natural". It's not common but someone does it to make a point (the point being "I want attention") every few years.
Is that what those 2 things were? I thought someone had painted and strapped on two 5 gallon bags out of a their hotel milk machine so they didn't have to pay for drinks at the park...
Comments like that make me wonder if the reaction would have been a bit less intense if she had been a bit thinner and more conventionally "pretty."
I get that some people are uncomfortable with seeing a mother nursing a baby in public. What I don't get is acting like it's some kind of pornography, or heaping disapproval on the mother in question because she doesn't look like a fashion model.
Updating this, as I have finished reading the thread.
Ya'll know what's ugly? It isn't that woman's breasts, it's all the nasty comments about how droopy they are or how fat she is.
I'm glad people think breasts are sexy, but that is not their primary function. It's a side benefit. They exist as a food delivery system for infants of all mammals, human women included. If it makes you uneasy, okay, fine. But that is no reason to disparage this woman's looks, or to say her breasts look like cow udders, or act like the sight of a mother feeding her child is so disgusting that it makes you vomit.
I don't think she's so pretty either, but guess what? That isn't her job. Her job is to be a mom, and as far as I can see, she is doing it, and that, my friends, is beautiful.

I breastfed 4 sons....and I never was that publicly exposed deliberately, nor was I ever ridiculed because you can certainly breastfeed without announcing it to the world.
Funny story, I was sitting by a hotel pool, crowded with families....discretely breastfeeding my youngest....my other three were in the pool right by me, except for my 10 year old who was an avid swimmer.
My 3 year old got to close to the deeper end, and slipped in right behind his 10 year old brother....I yelled at my oldest...he didn't hear me....and I at the same time, baby still latched on... ran across and was yelling for my 10 year old to grab his brother, thank goodness he heard me and my three year old was fine....It wasn't until moments later that I realized, baby in arms, that my breast was fully exposed.
I am sure I would have been on social media if it had been around. It is still a hilarious family story.

Don't really care. Let her breastfeed. The fact we are so stigmatized by breasts in the first place is more a cultural trait than anything. Even if she flaunted, them, who cares....
Didn't we already cover this before? Like over a week ago on these pages? Did anyone here actually see this in person? Let it go. It's not the end of the world. Take a deep breath, it will be OK!
Not my style, but feeding her child should take priority over judgements by prissy Stepford wives standing around.
I'm just glad she breastfeeds, it's invaluable to her child's future health and mental development.
And that's probably exactly why her breasts are apparently not suitable monkey-spanking material for the potbellied winners here disparaging her looks. Breasts are biologically meant for babies, not you.

Exactly. She was taking care of her child.
If you don't like the sight of it, look away.
