I don’t think this has to be a difficult subject at all. The women I see breastfeeding are not exposing themselves. They have receiving blankets or shawls and little if any of their breasts are seen.

I’m interested to hear that it’s women who protest most. Obviously they are a set of women apart from those who do breastfeed. One wonders are they bottle feeders or are they like me – childfree?

I have an almost overwhelming urge to shout boobies right now!

I am not a fan of bottle feeding. Don’t have kids yet, but as you said, mammals have breasts for feeding.

Feeding in public? It’s a very difficult subject, especially in western areas. Something I did hear mentioned is that most of the people who complain about women breast feeding in public are other women!
