Relationships Reporter, Gail Rosenblum is working on an article stemming from the “Facebook Breastfeeding Photo Controversy”
read more here and here. She asked to tap into the wealth of opinions from our insightful readers.
Here’s her query:

Photos of breastfeeding mothers on Facebook: Adorable or obscene? It’s no secret that Americans are highly conflicted (confused? Crazy?) about women’s breasts. What interests me, though, is the quiet war that seems to be playing out under the radar between women – those who support breastfeeding and those who find it offensive. I’d love to speak with women (mothers and others) of a variety of ages about this: Where do you fall on this debate? Are you supportive of a woman’s right to breastfeed without limits? Or with some discretion? Or would you just rather she use a bottle? If relevant, how does your own mother (grandmother) feel about this issue? Please forward this to others who might like to chime in.
