Sorry, but that line of argument just doesn’t work. Time was, people knew that there were discreet and modest ways of doing most anything; now, modesty-impaired women are apparently told (by militants in this “camp”) to “bare it and others can deal with it”... ostensibly because “breasts aren’t sexual unless the lustful man (or lesbian, I guess) MAKES them a sex issue, so they should just learn to control themselves and mind their own business.” Never mind that they’ve unwittingly played into the hands of a culture which objectifies them.

(Would these women object if lots of people took videos of their bare breasts and posted them on YouTube? Why? How would this be different than taking videos of passersby who’re doing anything else? Come up with an answer to that, and you’ll be one step closer to recognizing the insanity behind the “whit it out and feed” camp.)

Several commenters on this thread already nailed the main problem with that: that’s one of the most selfish, self-absorbed, entitlement-driven pieces of baloney ever uttered by human lips.

It’s funny: I seriously doubt that women would be blase about men “whipping it out” to pee in public (even if, instead of using a wall or a bush, the “pee-pee incident” were in a sanitary open-air basin with a nice drain to the sewer—maybe the government should start putting those in public parks?). The same argument applies, doesn’t it? “Hey, what’s even remotely sexual about peeing? You have an issue with a bare penis? Get over it, you pervert! It’s natural, and it’s horribly selfish of you to require men to hold their pee until they get to some sort of “interior” urinal!”

Sheesh...

“whit” —> “whip”, above.

Stephanie Rhodus was in court on Monday to testify in a custody hearing for her 8-year-old son. She was waiting to be called to the stand when her younger son, 8-month-old Archer, wanted to be fed.

She's in court, can't leave, baby wants to be fed.

The same argument applies, doesn’t it? “Hey, what’s even remotely sexual about peeing? You have an issue with a bare penis? Get over it, you pervert! It’s natural, and it’s horribly selfish of you to require men to hold their pee until they get to some sort of “interior” urinal!”

That doesn't even compare. All that shows is your immaturity or sexual issues. She's in court and has to keep that baby quiet. If the baby was bottle fed, there wouldn't be an issue but because he's breast fed, people act like idiots.

Lol @ the peeing in public! You’re right.

I’m pregnant and will have my baby two weeks from today (scheduled induction) so soon I’ll be breast feeding. However, I will cover myself if/when I have to feed in public both for my sake, my husband’s sake, and the sake of the general public. Modesty seems lost in our stupid, libtard, progressivist society.

I realize BF’ing is natural, but no one needs to see my boobs. Those are private property.

As it happens NYC is indeed very Blasio about people peeing or crapping in public.

It's 'privileged' to exhibit self-restraint now, you know. Not to mention personal hygiene.

How selfish do you have to be to begrudge an infant eating?
