Letter to the Editor
To the editor:
Who, I wonder, would like to eat under a blanket in the dark, in secrecy as if there was something wrong with eating or themselves?
Who, I wonder, would like to eat on a schedule rather than when hungry? who would like to be told to wait if the need for comfort and connection arises?
If you nurse your baby on cue, there is no schedule, you don’t need a pacifier and you don’t let your baby cry until you have enough privacy to nurse. What would we do that for? For people who are offended at the sight of some skin covering milk ducts?
Personally, I find a shoulder as sexy as a breast.
It makes me wonder what is going on in those people’s minds that are so offended by a mother nursing publicly, uncovered.
Where I am from — Germany — women lay around topless, in city parks. nobody thinks a thing of it or just looks the other way. I don’t know how the human body could be offensive in any way. It’s in the eye of the beholder.
