To all the men here - never ever be embarrassed to masturbate furiously whenever you see a hot woman - that is a totally natural thing to do and it is not wrong nor is it bad.

All I can suggest is for those who are embarrassed to see it - DON'T LOOK! Good grief its not a weener show, its a man ejaculating - this has been going on since the beginning of mankind

I actually witnessed that one Sunday afternoon, at the bus stop at 19th and Lincoln, in San Francisco. He was goin' to town!

Well...breasts play a large part in sexual attraction. Isn't that why human female's breasts are enlarged ALL THE TIME, not just when the female is lactating. What's the purpose of that, if not to attract members of the opposite sex?

Not attracting me one bit.

As for how this topic became out of control, the purpose of it was how it was uncomfortable for both my mother and me to be sitting next to a woman w/ a bare breast while we were trying to eat out.

I asked her if she ever did something like that and she told me no. I think there is nothing more angelic than a parent spending time with their child, but I don't think that women should be showing all for everyone to see while people are trying to eat their meals.

When my sister was nursing my niece, she did this at the table and I got up and left. I love both my sister and niece to death, but I don't need to see her nursing while I am trying to eat my burger.

You're probably better off sticking a breast in your face than a burger...did you read Fast Food Nation??? tongue.gif

There's your answer. If it bothers you that much, feel free to get up and leave.

I just really don't get what's supposedly so gross about a mother nursing her baby.

I haven't read 'Fast Food Nation', but I do prefer breasts over burgers

If I'm understanding you correctly, you don't have anything against breast feeding as long as the mother is discreet, right? I think what you're saying makes you uncomfortable is when breastfeeding mothers expose themselves. Is this right?

Swmr,
Surely equating a public view of a womans breast to a mans penis is not an equal comparison- other than how one was brought up and the social norms in this country...
would seeing a mans chest while eating be different than seeing a womans ?
I would guess that this may be because of how you (we)were brought up or your adversion to females in general ( I am just supposing here) ...
My thinking is that we in America have just a little bit of prudeness in us - developed and handed down through our parents, their parents and their parents... This is not a fault of yours ...

Personally - if we were not saddled by society to wear clothes - I would not and surely many others would not as well... and you would have entire restuarants filled with men , women and kids in the nude... ( although too cold this time of year) ...

As you are surely aware the human body is / should never be considered a shame to see.. especially when it is one nurturing a new life.... I find no fault in allowing a mother feeding her child in this or any other venue when the need arises...

Cheers

why limit our complaining to breast feeding?

how about people on cell phones that talk so loud you can hear both parts of the conversation?

i think in general we all need to be aware of our surroundings and and just be polite and show courtsey to others.
