Is it normal I detest moms who don't breastfeed?

  • Be bold, as long as you don't mind the same in return.

    While it's true that some woman can't physically feed their child for a variety of reasons. I don't believe society should encourage it. You can call it a choice, but for me it isn't one. It is part of the whole gig. And I don't believe women who choose this route are following instinct. This is what our bodies were made to do. You don't have to do it, and I don't want you to feel bad for your choices. But I really don't understand why you wouldn't want to do this. A baby's cry can make a nursing mother lactate. That should tell you that breast feeding is the obvious reaction to that reality. Feeding formula to an infant should not be normal. This is not food. It's the bare minimum required to produce a viable life. It's like an adult drinking protein drinks and supplements instead of eating an actual meal. This is fine for temporary use, but not how we should nourish our bodies.

    • No I don't mind you being bold at all. If I can give it then I sure as hell have to take it and I have no problem in doing so.

      Breastfeeding is just not for me though and sorry in advance but there is no way in hell that I would be comfortable breastfeeding public.

      I find it quite sickening (on a personal level) before I am flamed. Reason being is one minute you could be having sex/sexual contact and your breasts being touched and then the next minute you have your baby suckling on the very same breasts that you (collective) may use for sexual pleasure. I am sorry but again on a personal level that I something I would not be comfortable with.

      Just because I did not breast feed does not make me a bad mum. xx

      • I don't think you are a bad mum. Many people have the same hangups with breastfeeding. These hangups didn't always exist and I wonder at what point in time did society start to think it was weird?
