How do you feel about mothers who breastfeed in public?

I asked this same question about 2 years ago on here and the comment section was a mess and all hell broke loose so I kinda want to compare the responses from this to the ones I got in 2016.
The one thing I didn't explain well last time I posted was that I'm not talking about women just pulling out their breasts and having the whole thing showing right in front of everyone where you can literally see the baby feeding. I'm more so just talking about breastfeeding in general since I've seen women use a cover where you could not see a damn thing and yet people still were nasty about it and shaming them for it or telling them to do that in the bathroom.

I don't have a problem with a woman breast feeding in any fashion in public. She can pull her breast out and feed her baby right there. She can cover up. She can pump milk. Speaking for myself, if I'm looking I'm not perving. I think it's freaking awesome and cool. Not a sexual or "dirty" thing about it. We missed a left turn somewhere to come to the conclusion that a breast isn't PRIMARILY to feed babies.

As for sending a woman to the bathroom to feed. Srsly. What sort of message is that about motherhood. Feed your child in a metal stall around sounds of excretion and smells of shit and piss. Yea. THAT is normal.

It's funny. The entirety of human evolution and we don't have a problem. Thousands of years of human civilization and we don'to have a problem. The vast majority of the world currently has no problem. And we've gone insane over this.
