EEEK! Baring One's Breasts in Public: Incident #2,878

[Enoch07]

What business is it of yours if others find it sexually gratifying so long as they don't disturb others with it? Not sure why you seem to gravitate towards this particular subject so readily. Projection, maybe?

It's relevant is why I brought it up. People say breast feeding is not sexual. Well it is, for some people with that fetish. Why is it ok for some people have a fetish about it, but not ok for other folks to see a nipple as sexual? Therefore do not want to see it in public?

That being said, if a mother is free to breast feed in public, then she has to accept, that people will sexualize her for doing it. One way or the other.

The problem being we live in societies which still have stupidly puritanical hangovers. As a collective of cultures, the West has some serious hang-ups and needs to grow the **** up. Maybe things wouldn't be sexualised so readily if sex wasn't seen as something naughty, sinful or something we need to be protected from seeing. Not sure why you feel the need to kinkshame others in order to make yourself feel more righteous either.

Not shaming anyone. But the sexualization of just about anything has little to do with the "naughtiness" of sex in general. A lot of kinks/fetishes are the result of trauma inflicted upon a person. So they recreate the trauma to help them feel like they have some amount of control over it.

Public breast feeding doesn't smell bad nor does it spread disease. ****ting, farting & pissing in public also speaks to a lack of self-control which is generally not tolerated in adults in older children as well. Babies have no self-control so neither they nor their mother can help it if baby needs to feed when the mother is in public.

The mother does have some self control over when to feed her child. It's not like she has to drop everything she is doing and compulsively feed right then and there. It will not hurt the child to wait 5 minutes for the mother to find a private safe place to feed.

Like I say I am not against public breast feeding. But some discretion surely can be used all things considered?

Following that logic, women should wear burkas because some men have a foot fetish and even an ear fetish which is a real thing, believe it or not.

I knew girl with a foot fetish. She'd settle for 9". (I'm gunna be in trouble)

That's a bit sexist.

Women can have foot and ear fetishes as well. So men would need to cover up as well.

But yeah, if you don't want to be sexualized then covering up could be an option.

But even that does not matter. Burka and Nun outfits have been sexualized as well. Really nothing is safe from being perverted.

So why is it ok though? Why is it ok for someone to have a breast feeding fetish, yet someone who is sexually excited by exposed nipples is in the wrong and therefore should not do that?

I guess I’m the only one wondering why she complained to the Walmart manager when it was the Subway manager that confronted her. I assume the Subway was located within the Walmart.

Then again maybe Walmart and Subway just didn’t want any competition about who could be the biggest boob.

I do not think it is wrong for someone to be offended, I think it is wrong to dictate where a woman can or cannot breastfeed.

In other words, a person can choose to believe that it is innapropriate, I can disagree. What is the problem with that?

Women should be able to engage in breast feeding and if some guy or gal gets off by watching them that is the consequence of breast feeding in public. If the person is staring. But there is a difference between looking/watching and creeping staring. If a guy or gal is creeping staring at a woman breastfeeding then I see no problem in asking creepy starer to leave. I do see a problem with asking breast feeder to leave.

That's my guess.

Then again, I’ve seen the sort of people that shop in Walmart. The prospect of seeing some of them breastfeeding could cause blindness or permanent damage.

Hell, forget about the breastfeeding, just seeing them is enough.

 

[Frater Sisyphus]

Nipples scare me.

Fine, keep the large boobs but please censor the tiny nipples. Nipples are evil

 

[Frater Sisyphus]

Urinating and p00ping are natural, and used far more often than for sexual arousal. So why is it not ok to pee or p00p out in the open for everyone to see then?

Because feeding Children that aren't even able to walk yet) and urinating are (or have become) on completely different sides of public indecency coin.

For the record, I am actually supportive of naturism but the human race has a long long time to go before that would be worth pushing worldwide. Again, apebrains. We still have far to go as a so-called "advanced" species.

 

[Frater Sisyphus]

That is debatable. Some people have a food fetish. Urination, flatulation, and defecation are also fetishes as well. There is even a milking fetish where men/women seek out lactating women to imbibe and bathe in human breast milk for sexual gratification

Yep, you are correct. Fetishes know no limits.

What about being sexually aroused by faces, then do we wear masks?


I think the line between rational and irrational concern needs to be made, really because both extremes can be taken with zero clarity.

 

[Buddha Dharma]

Many women use a blanket or other cover up and you can't really tell what they are doing. There is no need for a public display. Maybe some women just want attention.

I don't see why women should have to hide it. It's not shameful. Is that really what this comes down to? That women should be ashamed of naturally feeding their children?

 

[sandy whitelinger]

Really nothing is safe from being perverted.

This gives me hope.

Hold on now. I too think women should be able to breastfeed openly, but I do not think that anyone asking them to not do so is asking them to be ashamed. Is that how you really feel? Or is that just hyperbolic?

 

[sun rise]

Hell, forget about the breastfeeding, just seeing them is enough.

That should have been hidden. If I want a horror show, I'll read about Washington politics.

You may be right; however, it's too late to do anything about it. The option no longer exists.
