Sweden Allows Women To Breast-Feed Inside Parliament. Should US Congress Do The Same?
The only stipulation I would insist upon is "No smoking of cigars while breast feeding" [in Congress], and that's all I have to say about that.
The hairy-armpit brigade states -- CORRECTLY, BTW -- that breast feeding is a natural function. Since it is natural, it should be allowed anywhere.
In addition -- I THINK that taking a leak, taking a dump, jerking off, making hot monkey love... are all natural functions, and so also should be allowed anywhere. Church, parliament, Wal-Mart aisles, wherever.
Woman’s breast feeding is a natural phenomenon. Keeping the decency of civilization, breast feeding of woman why will not be permitted in the Parliament or anywhere else provided the medical safety and safety of decency is taken care of?
Why are we as Americans so hung up on breast feeding? If a woman is breast feeding her child (which by the way is the best way to do it) and she is not uncomfortable, she should be able to breast feed where ever she is. The mother and child are not the problem but it is the narrow minds of those around her. If they find it offensive, just don't look, read a book or play a video game. That's my opinion on that subject.
some weird answers here. i say it is fine and natural. it is the close minded people who say it is a bad thing. some natural things are not only acceptable but very binding and beautiful. as for the monkey love and taking a dump, well that would be very unsanitary and visually disturbing. if such comments are made by some people, i hope it was with a bit of sarcasm. besides, jerking off, taking a dump or monkey love could present a slip hazard, especially on those shiny walmart floors

We have all heard of attachment parenting and co-sleeping etc. But is it too much to be breast feeding your almost 4 year old son??? In my former profession as an RECE I have met many women who have done this and I have seen the results of this process, not always so positive especially in later...
