Breastfeeding

Overview
Breastfeeding is an issue because some people apparently consider the sight of a (female) human breast to be offensive, even if the breast is only exposed due to the logistical requirement for proximity to the nursing infant.

Ok, I really don't get this one. I don't see how the sight of breasts is supposed to be sexual, especially when there is no taboo about men showing their ugly hairy chests whenever they want. (If the sight of a baby nursing is sexual, surely the most sexual part is the baby.) WTF?? --Woozle 11:57, 28 July 2006 (EDT)
