Thoughts on breastfeeding in public?

Mums have been doing this since time.
Why is it an issue for some now ?

Who's life is so empty they feel the need to find this 'offensive' or 'inappropriate'.?

Personally i dont feel it is wrong to feed your baby in public - just put a blankie over to cover . A baby needs to eat when it needs to eat. @Picklebobble2

@CheerfullyCurious ....I'm curious, why does the image of a mothers breast bring out the 'blanket' comment ?

I don't understand your comment. @Picklebobble2

@CheerfullyCurious You said "put a blankie over to cover"
So my questions is why should they ?

@Picklebobble2 they dont have to it is their choice. Some people find it offensive if you take out a boob in public some don't. I am neutral about this. Personally would use a shawl or small blanket in public just to be respectful towards those who takes offense. Some men perv over this and i can see that it could cause potential problems if a husband and wife sits at lunch and I take out a boob and the husband drewl over it. It may not be nice for his wife (unless she does not care). But ultimately it is a woman's choice what she wants to do.
