I will explain this to you, so that I know that one person comprehends it. If I were to get up from my seat in a restaurant and begin a mime show, I would be disruptive. It is idle to say that, since it is visual, and not noisy, people can look away, first, because I will be in the natural line of sight of many people, and it requires convolutions to avoid seeing me, but second, because I am doing something highly unusual, and there is a psychological effect of distraction that is mostly unavoidable unless very concentrated. Now, some people will find the mime show charming, and be entertained, but others will resent the distraction from their date or business, and will seek to have the restaurant quell the performance. It has nothing to do with sexual fixation, or orality, or anything but excessive distraction. In most cases, the establishment would have the right to make me stop or leave, depending upon its judgment of the overall effect on its other customers, and I think that is correct. So it is with indiscreet breast feeding........
