Just stupid, why would people get upset at the simple beauty of a mother feeding a new baby life.
We men know how to diferentiate between jugs, melons, udders, knockers, bristols........... and breasts used to feed baby

I must agree with many of the comments on this one! I really fail to see what all the fuss is about on that cover. Is this 2006 or what? I have no problem with mothers feeding there babies in public as long as its not right in my face! Anyone would think that they were giving birth in public!! European countries are generally more liberal when it comes to nudity and I find all this censorship pathetic. There is also a double standard because some "shock jocks" get a real kick out of offending people yet when in comes to a pair of boobs OH NO!!!!
This also brings in the subject of movies the way that they are edited for language or content. Now I am over 21 and frankly object to having my tv censored like that. If I thought I was going to be offended by something I would not watch it, otherwise leave the damm thing alone. We have a 17yr old in the house, its our decision as to if something is "suitable" for her to watch, that choice should not be made for us (the parents). Why as adults should tv be censored because somewhere a kid (who should not be watching) has the tv on? Its down to the parents.
On a lighter note it amuses me that all alcohol here in Mi needs to leave the store concealed in a bag (as if its something naughty!!).

I want to know how many tears are you spilling when you watch those bombs exploding. Or is hypocrisy only limited to the people of the US and not found in peoples of other countries.
Not sure what you are saying. Is breastfeeding in public illegal? (genuine)

What does the number of tears spilled at bombing have to do with whether it is right or wrong?

Yeah stupid isn't it..I can't be bothered to read the whole article..the people who are offended by a nursing mother should have been starved at birth

I've nursed all my kids and it was a wonderful experience.....most of the moms I know have nursed their kids......this is just another way for the conservative prudes of this world to control ours....Shopping Malls, stores etc really should have a special cosy area for a nursing mom to feed her infant...then these ridiculous nitwits would have no reason to be offended......if my baby is hungry I'm going to feed him/her ...... I'd understand the outrage if it was her husband on the end of the breast

I had my tonsils out when I was 20 and the woman in the bed opposite started breastfeeding her 5 year old son who had come to visit her after school. A nurse came in and shut the curtains around her bed. The woman started screaming that it was perfectly natural for a mother to breastfeed her baby. The nurse then pointed out that her son was no longer a baby which shut the woman up immediately.

Yes it is illegal in some counties/states. In others there is no laws on the books about it.

The average worldwide age for weaning is thought to be about 4-5yrs old, and given that so many women don't even bother to breastfeed, or don't feed past a few months, breastfeeding an older child may not be as rare as you think.
