First of all, most women do not want to EXPOSE them self the way some of you are describing.. But, in all seriousness, a baby needs to eat too. And you can breast feed a baby without exposing yourself at all.

......but you're also free to expose yourself too, if you so choose to (won't get any complaints from me).

I sure hope this lady washed her hands after breastfeeding her baby before going back for seconds.
My mother used say that you can tell how clean the kitchen is by taking a look at the bathroom. It's true in many cases. I would never eat in a restaurant that had a filthy bathroom because it shows to me that they do NOT care about their cleanliness.
As for feeding babies. I was under the impression that mothers prefer breast feeding to be a "quiet bonding" moment. I don't know how on earth you can have a quiet bonding moment in a noisy restaurant.
Besides, babies eat on a fairly regular schedule. So why can't a mother PLAN AHEAD to have her child fed in a private setting? Is it THAT difficult to figure out?

Well, first off. How many kids have you and do you breast feed?
Because you seam to know an awful lot about breast feeding , babies and their dinner schedule!
and next time you go to a restaurant, why don't you bring your dinner in to the stall and eat it there, see if you like it. I know I would not want to eat my dinner in a bathroom.
And last but mot least. I can think of many things people do in public, that are a lot worse then feeding your child.
If boobs makes you so uncomfortable then don't stare at them.
