Breastfeeding Mother - Time Magazine Cover

I would beg to differ slightly on that one (just a bit mind you). When we think modern breasts we thinks round, pert, luscious…mmm you get the picture. Anyway breasts that were never cupped in a bra look a lot more like half empty bags of water.

Lets take the buttocks for example, or more specifically the cleavage between the ass cheeks. If you notice there is a remarkable similarity between ass cheeks and that of breast cleavage. The ass cleavage is the road down to the promised land, which suggests why men are attracted to cleavage becasue it mirrors this real sexual area.

In China the mere sight of small feet on a woman sent men into a quiver and not so long ago if you saw the back of a womens neck you probably jizzed off in your pants

… People forget that with the internet these images last forever. So when this kid gets into school this is the image that the other kids are going to use to tease him. If this kid wants to step in front of a platoon of Marines then this is the image that’s going to be remembered. If this kid gets into politics then this is the image that’s going to be shown.

I would go as far to say that the mother was irresponsible for agreeing to be on the cover like that. It’s on thing to breastfeed in public or to agree to an interview in which you talk about breast feeding your child when they are 3, 4, 0r 5. But to pose in a provative manner on the cover of a major magazine that is going to visible for the rest of the child’s life is a selfish act.

Sometimes we have to temper our desire to voice our opinions and our desire for “doing whatever we want to” with some common sense and a bit of discretion.

I laughed at the pic but on second thoughts I felt bad for the kid.

Btw I always thought Steve Tyler looked like an old washed up drag queen…

Yep. And the subsequent discomfort those with the latent fetish feel when confronted with a natural benign act like breastfeeding.

Stating the obvious doesn’t win an argument when you don’t address the topic correctly.
Brother Chris used the term “fetishizing”.

And I was explaining that it is perfectly natural to be sexually attracted to breasts. I think that voids that claim.

Again, a normal sexual attraction is one thing, a fetish is another. The reaction of each is different, especially if shame is attached to the fetish in the fetishist’s mind.

What is the line crossed that makes it a fetish? Breasts are an genetically programed and evolved part of the female body specifically designed to attract mates. That is very different than feet or necks.

Well, one way of knowing is if YOU feel aroused when seeing a child suckle a breast in public.

lol

And that couldn’t be just from seeing the breast of an attractive woman?

Sex is a natural act. Would seeing sex in public turn you on? Are you feteshizing intercourse?

Urinating is a natural act. Would women urinating in public make you uncomfortable?

Sometimes it seems you just like arguing for the sake of argument.

I no longer have any desire to carry this on with you.

Peace.

No, I’m just a person who isn’t comfortable with breastfeeding in public, and took mild offense to being told I had a breast fetish.

Edit: I guess if you would be uncomfortable with women should urinating and defecating in public you have latent fecal and urine fetishes.

Does the wife know?

There are 2 kinds of men in this world.

Those that admit they love the sight of breasts and liars.

I love the sight of breasts, but it depends on the woman AND the situation.
That’s where my argument was… the fetishist has no discrimination.

A suckling child in public is a benign occurrence in my view. I’m sorry for you that your lack of compass in the matter prevents you from seeing it as nothing more than a child feeding.

Comparing breast feeding with defecating in public is plain ridiculous.

You are right, defecating is much more of a common natural act. It is also much less avoidable and necessary when out and about than breastfeeding.

It being a natural thing doesn’t mean I have to be comfortable with it in public. It also doesn’t mean I lack “compass”.

But please explain to me why you draw the line with “natural” acts where you do? Why are you uncomfortable with urination?

Because those body functions are dirty, smelly and can be a public health hazard. There.

Breast feeding is none of the above. C’mon, man. Are you seriously making that comparison?

I read your posts and am familiar with your politics. Do you want the gov to make a law banning public breastfeeding?

If you don’t like seeing breastfeeding, look away.

Public urination doesn’t necessitate it be a health hazard. It could be just as sanitary and in public. Not to mention you still deal with the same amount of smell in the bathroom either way. The very notion of separate gender bathrooms is direct evidence of my point outside of anything you mentioned. We are uncomfortable with it because of a notion of modesty, even though it is a natural act.

So, you are against decency laws?

And I never said I was for any ban. Being uncomfortable with it, doesn’t mean I want a law about it.

A woman exposing her breast, even for a natural act, violates my notions about modesty. The same way men or women exposing their genitals in public would even if it’s for a completely natural act. And that doesn’t mean I have some latent breastfeeding or urinating fetish.

You make it sound like women are FLAUNTING the breasts.

They usually are mostly covered when feeding their babies.

I guess you’d feel violated in New Orleans during Mardi Gras, huh?
