That would explain why you are reacting so strongly to the sight of a breast. And do you hide from the public when YOU eat? I bet you are either gay or single. Were you abused as a child?

As you said...how hard is it to move outside if you're offending people? I mean, when I walk around without pants, usually a police officer comes around to tell me I'm making a scene. I don't see why other people can air out their privates and I can't. In all seriousness, I think putting a blanket over yourself while breastfeeding probably the most polite way to do it.

I saw it on tv too. She just sat down on the floor in the middle of the aisle like she owned the place and breastfed. I don't have kids yet, but I'd at least ask if there was a bathroom first.

Not that it really bothers me, this is just what I have seen :) Nothing grosses me out anymore though. I have 5 year olds. ;) There are definitely some women out there who take the whole breast feeding thing waaay to seriously though to the point of going overboard about it and even berating a mother who chooses NOT to breast-feed, etc, which I don't agree with..

This is a can of worms you've opened. :P I'll be careful not to tell the b00bie brigade that you posted about it. ;) I come to the issue from the opposite end of the spectrum. I could really care less if I see an uncovered boob feeding a baby in public. I have a really hard time understanding why you'd want to strap yourself with extra gear to have to haul around town just to feed your baby from a bottle to not upset the neighbors. (I don't think you're being insensitive, for the record, I was just raised to think about it differently I guess?) My general feeling on breastfeeding in public is that if it's a public space where consuming food is acceptable, it's fair game. If it's not, move your butt and your baby to a public space where it is. Last I checked, iParty wasn't an eatery. They'd probably ask you to refrain from feeding your four year old cookies, too. Just don't tell a breastfeeding lady to go do it in the bathroom. Lest you be cursed to eat your meals in a bathroom with no plunger that my hubby just pooped in for the rest of your life. ;) Oh boy.
