It is interesting that such a master of "logical" debate as yourself would pick up on the ridiculous straw man "They do it in Sweden, so it must be a communist plot" argument. I think there's a new holy trinity of the righteous right shaping up here. There are a lot of men who find lactating erotic so I agree with you while it is natural it should be done in private if only for the sanctity of the mother lest she become a target. They are many ways to breast feed privately and discreetly even in public. I think it is hilarious that anthropological finding that because a Swedish woman breast feeds for several years it is therefore correct practice. An infant does not need breast milk for very long after it ingests the initial colostrum. Depending on the health of the mother a balanced formula might actually be better soon after ingestion of colostrum. Message 15768977 On the topic of public breast feeding, why do so many people condone it while condemning public urination? Both are acts of good health where the primary objection is the exposure of private parts. Message 15769486 No, we ought to pass laws enjoining discretion...They ought not to be allowed to breast feed in a common dining area, for example... Message 11121494
