I mean I feel like it’s generally better to do it in private out of respect for other people. Maybe try to go to a bathroom or do it in the back of a dark movie theater at least. Ofc it’s excusable if the baby is crying on a bus or something and you don’t have access to a private space, but if you’re gonna have your boobs out in public just know that any straight man’s natural reaction to that is gonna be staring, which isn’t socially acceptable, so men have to awkwardly try to look away…

yeah no men definitely feel very comfortable at staring at women in public and if anything that’s normalized but i should be expected to feed my kid in a dirty bathroom? yeah no.

Even the federal government says bathrooms aren’t adequate nursing stations. How can the federal government be more compassionate than you

It’s because you’re sexualising the act. You wouldn’t be uncomfortable if you recognised it as what it actually is: a mother feeding her child.
