Mom says she couldn't nurse on plane

[Tina2001aniT]

What exactly, was she supposed to cover up?

I guess her kids head, so that nobody even had to think that they might get flashed a little bit of boobage....

 

[TeaBag Express]

She shouldn't HAVE to cover up, would it have been polite of her to, yeah, but it should not be a requirement.....
What about breastfeeding makes you uncomfortable? Please enlighten me, I am not the least bit uncomfortable to see a breastfeeding mother ANYWHERE, It is a beautiful, natural thing.

Men and women look at this differently. If my wife is breast feeding that doesn;t make me uncomfortable at all. But if I am at someone else's house and they are breast feeding it is somewhat uncomfortable.

The thing that makes it uncomfortable is that when you are talking to them you don't really know were to look. You don't want to look at them and have them think you are just trying to sneak a peek when you are doing nothing more than looking in their direction. I also don't like it because then I start to wonder if my wife thinks I am just trying to stare at this other woman's breasts.

The best example I could give you would be is if a guy is talking to his boss who is a woman and one of her tits is hanging out of her shirt and trying to pretend that you don't notice.

Why would you be speaking to a woman that you don't know while she is breast feeding?

This woman was as secluded as she could possibly get, discreet, and yet that's not good enough for you. You want her to feed her baby in the bathroom.

she was seated by the window in the next-to-last row, her husband was seated between her and the aisle


You would have to go out of your way to "glance" at her and I can think of no reason for you to try to strike up a conversation with her... try again...

Sounds like you've been caught by the wife checking out other women's boobies, trust issues perhaps?

I wouldn't walk up to a woman who was feeding if I didn't know her. In my example I was talking about if I was at one of my friends houses and their wife was breastfeeding.

The example you quoted had nothing to do with the plane. I was just trying to explain why men get uncomfortable around women who are breast feeding. Trust me when I say this. I am not the only man who gets uncomfortable around breast feeding. Lots of guys feel this way.

Too bad. Look the other way.

How would you not know where to look?? You look at their face just like you do when talking to anyone else.......Or maybe that is the problem you are a pervert and usually look directly into women's boobage when you talk to them, and the fact that there is a baby there using them for their intended purpose makes you feel like the perv that you are :shrug: Am I close??

Normally thats what I do. I didn't read the article at first. But if somone was doing this in the seat beside you on a plane you can;t mearly just look the other way or keep walking.

So now women can not breastfeed in the privacy of their own house either

You are way off. Being uncomfortable around people breastfeeding does not make you a perv. Something's are just looked entirely different by men and women. You should do a poll to see how men feel about breast feeding in public. The results would surprise you.

To me, it makes you a perv :shrug:

I never said that. I just said it is kinda uncomfortable. I wouldn't expect her to do anything different in her own home.

Even though I may be slightly uncomfortable I don't make it known.

So every guy who doesn't like to watch a woman brest feed is a perv?

Oh stop... I have seen women wear shirts to work that have more boobage showing than what one would see if they happened upon a woman breastfeeding.

I just called and ask my husband. He said it doesn't bother him at all.

When you breast feed or when he is around a woman he hardly knows? There is a big differenc ebetween the two.

The act of breast feeding regardless of who the woman is doesn't bother him at all. Some people just don't have hang-ups about it!!

I think what you are missing here is this is a "societal" hang up. A womans breast is taboo, it's pornography in ANY setting.. unless she is breastfeeding. How are we supposed to shut off the "bad Breast" when the "good breast" shows up?

Whipping it out in public would get a woman arrested for indecent exposure, unless she's breastfeeding.

I think it's stupid to begin with, that a womans breast should be sinful, or pornographic or hidden. Nothing shows the stupidity of it all then when you go to a club, or even the beach.. If you cover the nipple with a pasty or a nickel sized piece of cloth it's no longer dirty or pornographic. What, exactly, is dirty or should be hidden from public view? The nipple, well hell, everyone has one of those.. men can show theirs anytime they want..
