Breastfeeding Is Obscene... Really?

A note on the war on public breastfeeding...
It's what's in the minds of those looking at breastfeeding and thinking it is obscene that we have to worry about, not the moms doing it. And I'm wondering which of these definitions apply, I'm assuming a. for men (if you can't control your sexual desire when seeing breasts, you are going to have a much bigger problem in this culture them BFing, since there are literally naked breasts everywhere, ads & TV, and you need to get some help... you have some sexual issues) and I don't even know what to think about women who are against public BFing, I feel very bad for them and how repressed they must feel, although it doesn't surprise me considering it's been a very short time since women were considered equal... and face it, we still have a long long way to go before we actually are treated equal.




Definition of OBSCENE

1
: disgusting to the senses : repulsive
2
a : abhorrent to morality or virtue; specifically : designed to incite to lust or depravity
b : containing or being language regarded as taboo in polite usage <obscene lyrics>
c : repulsive by reason of crass disregard of moral or ethical principles <an obscene misuse of power>
d : so excessive as to be offensive <obscene wealth> <obscene waste>
