I salute the Australian Breastfeeding Association for making this ad, I'm mum to a gorgeous 6 month old girl and I breast feed. I stand at 6ft tall and know what to do to people who really annoy me so I'd love to deal with someone who dared to approach me and try to tell me that they'd appreciate it if i went to the toilet to feed my baby - I think their fkn head would be down the toilet before they could even get the sentence out!
1. There's a difference between a baby who probably doesn't even know what those noises are, and a person old enough to feel a little nauseous at hearing those noises while eating.
2. Actually, I WOULD eat in a washroom. Sometimes I need to (when my blood sugar is low while I'm on the toilet) but I've even eaten in a washroom when I DIDN'T need to. (Hell, I was drinking coffee while sitting on a toilet just this afternoon.)
Why is it we see countless ads on TV for baby formula (12+ months) but we never, ever see any commercials that advocate and support breastfeeding? Why is it that nobody seems to bat an eyelid when a baby is fed a bottle in a food court, but when a mum breastfeeds in the same area she is stared at or talked down to?! I have never, and WILL never feed my son in a public toilet OR a public parents room. I'll feed him where I want whether people like it or not.
@brisbanette don't want looks or talked down don't show off your child is feeding its not you and what you want if you do it right when nothing would be seen as your child would cover nipple and baby hands and top bra would cover the rest easy other woman do it and don't get looks and fed there child with fuss
bravo. to those that are against breastfeeding because 'boobs are private' are you going to tell tribal women to cover up their shame? stop being such a putz. breastfeeding is for nourishment, not your weirdo sexualised fantasies.
Oh, and MrCathouse- I have a plastic bag that you are more than welcome to use to cover your head while the awesome moms out there do what they have to do.
LMAO!!! Ladies and Gents, I'm pleased to introduce you to Spitzbully- the only man on Earth who was considered to be too pathetic to be invited to the all male meetings where new ways to exploit the female figure are constantly in development.
This made me cry. When I was a new mom I was too embarassed to nurse in public. I hated those moments with my beautiful baby in a dirty gross bathroom. Now, I'm older & more experienced. I'll be damned if I ever nurse my gorgeous 13 mos. old daughter in a bathroom. Good for you Aussies!
@blusennent funny when you do the same you wouldn't eat with your hands or mouths wide open chew loud same baby table manners apply, you say if you don't like don't watch well don't watch any one esle eating it should be done discretly YOU ONLY NEED A NIPPLE FOR FEED not to be naked its about your baby feeding (not nourishing idiot) not about you and all you and your belivies its easy to do it with vest and top or blanket using your child for poticial protests is selfish

But the man on the toilet doesn't have to take out any of his sexual parts to eat, unlike a nursing mother who has to expose her breasts. Yes, it is natural, yes, the breasts are there to feed our babies, but like it or not, breasts are sexual, and until our culture evolves to where they are not, you don't show them in public. I am a woman and I am uncomfortable when a woman flashes a nipple in public. But if done with some modesty without exposing, I have no problem with it.
sexual parts? I'm sorry, sexual is the secundairy function of breast and nipple. The first is feeding our children. And assuming a baby's needs to be less important than what you assume to be our culture, I'm sorry, my choice will allways be to fulfill my childs needs.
Nancy, you said the "until our culture evolves to where they are not sexual only" ...how will our culture evolve to accepting breasts as feeding if we dont SHOW our culture that breasts are meant for feeding. Doesnt hiding them just keep the stigma up that breasts are only for sexual purposes? The ONLY way to normalize breastfeeding is to nurse in public. period :-)
Pretty indencent you've gorwn up to think like this! Apparently fine to use breasts to sell, but not to feed our young...like they were intended. If you think children should not be fed in public how do they ever learn abotu society? If we cannot go outside with our babies they will never learn, end up with weird warped views of the world. Bit like you really.

Moogyboobles says: "Apparently fine to use breasts to sell, but not to feed our young...like they were intended".
Hey tell that to these strippers who use their own breast to sell and use them to get admiration. We didnt sexualize breast, you women have done this all to yourselves from day one and then turn the blame around on us like its our fault. And besides, a newborn baby is not supposed to be out and about outside all the time due to their immune system not being strong enough
What bollocks! If babies are breastfed that means they have the best immune system they can for a start...and what about older babies who are breastfed? Can they not go out either.
You clearly are a very odd foot loving misogynist who needs some kind of therapy. How was your childhood?

moogyboobles says: "If we cannot go outside with our babies they will never learn, end up with weird warped views of the world. Bit like you really".
Learn what?? Give me a damn break, a baby has all the time in the world to learn alot of shit without having to be subjected to the outdoors all the time. And besides a baby is too young to even learn anything yet when they are not in school. Did you know a baby can die due to pnuemonia complications if exposed outdoors all the time?
Seriously you have no idea about how a baby's brain develop do you? First 3 years it develops at the fastest rate ever, watching and learning, seeing how it's parents socialise in those early years is how they learn to be people! Learning the language from watching and listening to other people. If you keep them indoors all day they will get rickets!
spitzbully, f you breastfeed your baby and expose him outdoors all the time your baby will not get sick. That's why, breastfeeding at all times baby desires is what is being promoted here, for his health and mother. There a humongous amount of evidence of the benefits of breastfeeding for the child AND mother. The only sexual part of a human are the reproductive system. Have you actually seen a (mammal) animal sucking on their mate's tit? NO. Get Educated!
@enithhernandez look up and you'll find your wrong the breast are part of sexual act natural for human dickhead and moaning about sexual comments when a baby which its self comes from doing that is idiotic,
everytime you have sex for plessure then your just as bad as sex is for making child like breast are "just for feeding" we just be aloud to walk around topless

Watching a newborn baby feeding off of someone elses private parts is discustingly gross and offensive. Its no different than watching someone take a shit or a piss in public because they are both equally offensive
FYI everybody: If you ALL spam this little shit and give him thumbs down, He'll disappear. He only wants to see his shite up on the screen. Deny him that and don't even bother to argue and he'll crawl back into the troll-hole he came from.
Breasts are *not* intrinsically sex parts/organs to begin with. They are *used* as such by *some* cultures on our planet (mostly "western" cultures) but there are also cultures that are disgusted by the very idea of using breasts as sex toys. They are no more "sex objects" than are your earlobes or lips or ankles. When BFing should be limited to a bathroom b/c of being sexual, we sure as heck better also put on earmuffs, cover our lips (veiled head?) and make sure to never show sexy ankles.
Breast are not sex parts, well you are in denial about that. I am sure you get turned on by the sight of breast everytime you go to stripclubs or watch R rated films. Breast are wired that way to be sexual, and if you women would stop spending so much money on breast implants to try and please us men along with your low-cut tops, then maybe breast wouldnt be veiwed as sexual. You cant have it bothways macbump
I'm not particularly in favour of breast implants personally. But breasts are *not* wired "that way" to be sexual any more than, as I said, earlobes, ankles, or lips are. If we have to cover up to breastfeed we might as well be covering our own lips to eat, cover our ears up lest they offend someone who might want to nibble on the lobes, etc.

Breastfeeding belongs in bathrooms, why does our society twist things around and look at a naturally bodily function like this as the same as a grownup eating? Do we sh*t in restaurants too? Should we allow that?
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
bathrooms are designed for natural bodily function process, and its not only urinating, defacating but for breastfeeding. Processing a natural bodily function where people eat is unsanitary and is bad for business. Plus breastfeeding is a biohazard and it could cause contamination to eating supplys which would cause a class action lawsuit to the company
A baby breastfeeding IS eating. You're secreting saliva, which is actually bacteria-laden and dirty while you're chewing your food. Also, I find the noises most people make while eating disgusting, yet I don't force strangers to supply white noise machines or soothing music so I don't have to hear it. Nor do I throw a fit when food goes flying out of their mouth as they speak (as people usually do).
It is these people who are generally the people who pull out their breast like it was a bottle and don't care where they are. I'm glad to hear you may not be one of these people. But this to me is a part of a larger issue of the general turning of American society into theis inconsiderate mess (or I"m just becoming an old fuddy duddy and notice it more)
I have left a full dinner before. I figure it is my duty to grossly inconvenience myself before I force strangers to be inconvenienced. And since I take these measures, I am even more offended now than I was when I was childless, of people who do NOT take those measures. The other type are basically inconsiderate. Don't even blink an eye when their child is bothering people, screaming, whatever.
I am not making any claim to which you are, I don't know you. But I do get offended by the first type. I go to great pains to not impose my child on others. They did not chose to have my child. I have left grocery stores, malls and restaruants if she begins to scream.
I am protective, but there are two types of parents out there, those that see the world as their own big living room, and those that still see that they are in public and are concerned their actions and their child's actions are bothering others.
Though to address breastfeeding mommy a bit, this feed at all costs is a bit irational. There are many ways to plan in advance, not put yourself in positions to be rude, and ultimately do what you can to be rude.(my personal belife is that bad planning accounts for much of this) And it is the particular fact that my wife and I were able to pull this off (daughter now 1). So I get upset with people that say it is impossible, it wasn't even that hard.
I imagine you haven't seen these posts yet because of the delay, but yes, it is me. And again, I think you are being offended because you are thinking people are talking about you Loliusn17, when obviously they are not if you act modestly. Yes, the other type is rare, but then a bunch of feminists and breastfeeding nazis come out of the woodworks to have a protest nurse in. That is ridiculous.
Okay, here are some body parts that aren't genitalia but some people find sexy:
Feet
Neck
Nipples
Stomach
Lips
To name but a few. I take it you're no hypocrite and cover these parts up yourself in public and only use them in a toilet, lest someone take offence?
ok so heathy2k6...you probably dont have a problem with a man or women urinating in public either right? Or have a problem with people changing their clothes in public?
This man doesnt belong eating in a bathroom WTF!!! this is not the same as when a baby is being breastfed inside a bathroom. Its two different things, breastfeeding in a bathroom is more closer to urinating or defacating in a toilet
A baby who is being breastfed in bathrooms is not at all the same thing as an adult who eats in bathrooms. This video is down right liberal propaganda wacked
And drawing parallels between a baby eating with that of an adult is completely misguided and is again symptomic of this ridiculous child-centric culture in the United States.
Far from it. Western culture is childist, like you are. If we brought our children up better, breastfeeding being a good start as not only does it decrease their risk of obesity and diseases like cancer and diabetes (problems I do believe the US have on a major scale) but also improves their IQ (I won't mention Bush) and helps their brain develop in a way they are emotionally and mentaly healthy. Saves society alot of money!
moogyboobles...until you women stop using your breast to sell and make money with in stripclubs or in porno movies, then maybe we would stop looking at them as sexual. It is what it is and there is nothing you can do about it. You women are morely to blame for this since your the ones who turned breast into a sex symbol
Well I don't I use mine to feed my children the best way I can. They can still be sexual. I just don't see why it's so disgusting to feed a baby (and you don't see anything anyway) but everywhere you look breasts are there, way more exposed than when you nurse a baby.
Why should I feed in a toilet, just what do you suggest I do with my other children then? More women nurse in public, perhaps the more society will realise their main purpose and people won't have the issues you do!
moogyboobles....how in the f*ck does using privacy and good taste hinder ones feedding time ha? And feeding a baby properly should not equate to doing it in every street corner like a prostitute. Just be considerate thats all, we dont wanna see your nasty 13lbs ball of human flesh drooling his/her wet mouth all over your sexual private parts. Thats incestous and sexual exploitation on the child
You do realise we are mammals? Meaning we produce milk for our young. It's the most natural thing in the world to feed a baby human milk. Women can multitask you know, one minute they are sexual, and then when we feed our young they are not.
How about we all hide our hands in public too? After all we can fuck with those too. They can be sexual.
Did you know at birth a newborn can crawl unaided searching for the breast to feed with no help at all? Hardly exploiting a child is it?
incestuous? What do you think we did before formula? And you know you were a nasty 13lbs ball of human flesh....the only thing that changed was that you grew. Your nasty remarks are why this is so taboo. I breastfeed in public and you can hardly tell. Who cares. It's a baby eating just like they should.
loliusn17...let me guess your probably a nother liberal hippy breast nazi who supports this shit just about anywhere if it makes you feel happy. You see your not looking at this as rude behaviour and to be rude in public will soon teach that baby to be rude and inconsiderate just like you. Just breastfeed your child in a respectfull manner thats all. We dont wanna see that hunk of garbage hanging all down while other are being imposed by how you raise your kids in public display
I take offense from you calling my child a hunk of garbage. We all started as children. I don't understand your hatred towards this. You sound angry, not defensive. Regardless, this is my last reply, because you won't change my mind and I won't change yours. All I want to add is that it is perfectly natural to breastfeed. It is perfectly normal. It is a baby eating with as much rights as you to eat. Most women are very discreet, to where you can't even tell they are breastfeeding.
public indecent exposure is not normal ok!!!not for the sake of feeding a child, you are putting yourself in a position where you would be seen as perverted to some. It all ties into sex crimes etc when you teach your kids these false ideas about natural vs indecent exposure. This is why young girls are being robbed out of there innocents and selling their bodys for drugs. We could endup losing a moral society that once believed in those values that are being misplaced
You are a pervert, plain and simple. If you get off on seeing the back of a baby's head, then there's something sick and wrong with you. YOUR attitude accounts for the loss of "innocence" (at least spell it right) of young girls today, although your example is extreme and ridiculous. The fact is that Christians believe in public nursing, Islam believes in it, Judaism believes in it... the only one who doesn't is you and losers like you who have no real moral compass.
Women who breastfeed in public should face jailtime for up to one year and pay a $500.00 fine for public indecent exposure. If society gets too liberal as a free society, we could endup in a new stone age where civility is dead
well it's just too bad that each state in the U.S.A. has rights posted for breastfeeding women and babies.and it's quite nice to see some people protecting CIVIL rights.which breastfeeding is still considered.
Seriously? You really think that? You're doing the rounds against women who breast feed aren't you. And have been doing so for a while by the looks of things. So, would the baby have to go into prison with it's Mum when she is jailed or would it have to go into care?
Wow, you really are just a disgusting, perverted idiot. Why do you even bother? Each post just shows to a greater degree your ignorance and immaturity. You seriously need some reprogramming before you do some damage.

Xakana...you liberals are really contradicting yourselves a whole lot. You say that breastfeeding is natural and should not be sexual. But when someone disagree's with you, you assume they are perverted, which is it Xakana?? Is it food or is it sexual?? Stop contradicting yourself for everytime you say its natural but then assume its sexual when someone doesnt agree
No, you're the pervert because you see sex where it does not exist. It's the old double standard. A man who's cheating on his wife will often accuse her of committing that crime so he feels better about himself doing it, even though she hasn't done anything wrong. So you're seeing perversion because YOU are perverted and want other people to be so you don't feel bad about it. It has nothing to do with my nursing, but your sickness. By the way, most pro-NIP people I know are CONSERVATIVE.

No these nursing in public moms are not right wing conservatives Xakana, in fact these are the same moms who fought for Roe V Wade to be legal such as abortions. Breastfeeding in public is a liberal cause which liberals like yourselves are embracing nudity to be legal in public. Most conservatives i know believe in strong traditional values like keeping women up to a much higher standard than the way you think

i know alot, and from what i see from this video is down right abcurred. Comparing a grown adult to a newborn baby eating in bathrooms are totally alot different. Breastfeeding is a natural bodily function like urinating that needs to be conducted in a bathroom. Its unsanitary to excrete bodily fluids in a public dining area where patrons are trying to eat. The Board Of Health is strict on Sanitation rules and health issue's such as this
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Thats the trouble ith you nursing moms (liberals i might add) is you feel that the whole world owes you something for being a mom and raising your kids inconveniently where other are bothered. You see the whole world is not some oversized dressing room where you can impose your kids on others of how you raise them. Respect is something you dont demand, but its something you earn and order to give. Putting that child up on public display of how you raise them is classless and lacks manners

jeshogan...how about you try learning some class and perhaps manners. Its not polite to breastfeed in public ok!!!, its flatout rude behaviour and its discusting. You wanna act like some low-class hillbillly, then that how people will treat you like. And this is not about a child going hungry ok!! stop using that bullshit of an excuse
Yeah and next thing you know we will start normalizing urinating in public. Or perhaps we will normalize having sex in public too. Just making a point foldedintobeauty
your point is moot. breastmilk is sterile, and nourishing for a baby. urinating is not. what is YOUR point? i haven't seen this video in months and you're just now replying...all over the place? get a life.
foldedintobeauty....there is nothing cute about watching a nother human being put his/her wet mouth on someones sexual private parts ok!!!. Urinating and breastmilk are both bodily fluids that are being discharged from both sex parts.
Breastmilk is food, wonderful, antibody giving, cancer cell killing, essential fatt acid brain growing food. A wonderfood. It makes my day to see a child fed this amazing stuff. It's your problem, get help for it or don't look. Sex in public is illegal, breastfeeding in public is protected by law, you are in the minority!
no dipsh*t public indecent exposure is not protected by law for the sake of feeding a child, so why dont you go check your laws before you spout off in this thread. There should not be a double standard in America. To sit here and say that its perfectly legal to flaunt your sexual private parts for the sake of feeding a baby, but having sex isnt legal shows right there that there is some hypocrissy behind this issue. You f*cking liberals are the real perverts who make this sh*t legal in publi
You are clearly a frustrated virgin or taking the bible a bit literally. Jesus was breastfed you know. No need to take out on babies getting the best start in life! There are laws protecting breastfeeding in public. If you stopped a woman feeding in Scotland you would be fined £2500.
so you're saying that a woman exposing her breasts in public, breastfeeding or not, is indecent and illegal, yet, men have breasts and they can expose their sexual parts, too? double standard! if i wanted to i could walk around topless all day long b/c there it is my right.
"Flaunting your private sexual parts". Okay, body parts that aren't genitalia but some people find sexy include:
Feet
Neck
Nipples
Stomach
Lips
To name just a few. I take it you are no hypocrite, and you cover up all of these parts yourself in public and only use them in a toilet lest someone take offence?
just because there is a law that protects her rights to breastfeed it still doesnt give her a right to take advantage of the fact that knowing there is a law that says this is what she can do that she can snuff her no up at everyone to try and offend others. Just be considerate thats all, i mean there is a law that gives pedestrians the right of way, that still doesnt give pedestrians the right to jaywalk either
just because there is the right to free speech doesn't mean that you should go around passing judgement on a mother for feeding her child.but guess what.the best part about our rights is our priviledge to use them and be perfectly within them.so you've got your right to free speech and my baby has a right to eat when and where they are hungry.take it for what you will.but your rantings will do nothing but make you look silly and rude.babies need to eat, if you don't like it, turn your head.
GREAT!! Adults eating in public is somehow not offensive (in fact, it often IS) and yet we send mums to the loo. I prefer the term "nursing" or "natural nursing" to "BREASTfeeding", I mean, would you say "penile insemination"...?
Excellent ad, defo gets the point across. Bayshark82 did u audition for this? U really should have! lol. Have u had a psycho assessment yet? U certainly get around youtube don't u, posting negative comments on practically every vid about breastfeeding, do u get a rise out of this or something? Bet u wanna be a woman really, just jealous cos u got no boobs of ur own!, go on admit it! :-)
I think it's a positive step in the right direction, but fear those against breastfeeding in public won't be affected in the least.
As for other people being uncomfortable with seeing it in public... I don't enjoy seeing fat women in bike pants in public either, but it's still their right and not my place to object.
Why the need of a pump, a bottle, time to pump, time to get the right temperature, time to wash.........Babies only need to breastfeed......If it doesnt work, ok to pump or to give formula - but if the baby and mother can breastfeed - how can any one have a problem with that? SICK! We would not exist if babies were not breastfed.......

i dont get why women cant wait to get in a private place for example a parental restroom when they are in a shopping mall or in there car to breast feed i mean the baby wont die if it waits for like 5 mins just to get fed. some women just love to whip out there tits in public just because they like to argue and say im a women and i have rights to just because they get a kick out of it
the parental restrooms in malls i have seen have couches so the mothers can be comfortable while breastfeeding, tables to change the babys diaper and maybe the government need more to put more restrooms in malls but all the ones i have been have a parental restroom
So what do you suggest you do when you don't drive it's an hour of walking to do the school run! We don't just go shopping you know and many places don't have feeding rooms, those I've seen are not big enough to take the other children in with you.
If you make baby wait too long they get distressed and we finally get to feed it can affect their latch. Babies have no concept of time yet and the stress caused by making them wait can have a lasting effect on their development.
Some babies will not take a bottle, also, when pumping, it is very important to pump just as often as the baby feeds. Breastfeeding is supply/demand, missing out on even one nursing session could really pose a problem.
it's not the the WOMAN has to wait, but the BABY has to wait.when they are hungry they should be fed when hungry just like a bottle fed baby.the car is very uncomfortable to breastfeed in(no room)and depending on the time of year can be very cold or way to hot.women don't want to argue about it.they just want to feed their child in peace.there should really be no problem.if someone was hitting their child, yes you have a right to be offended.a child being fed shoudn't offend an adult.

OH WHAT A LYER YOU ARE JESHOGAN a car is not uncompfortable so stop trying to use this bullshit excuse of a lie to cover your tracks. If the car is cold, how hard is it to flip the switch to turn on your heater? Or if its hot inside the car, how hard is it to turn on your airconditioner?? Your not thinking too rational or logical in this debate one bit. And feeding your baby in peace should not equal=doing it in every street corner because honey that is not a peaceful enviroment at all
then if you like breastfeeding in the car go right ahead, until you have breasts and a baby to feed try not giving out unsolicited advice.i will feed my baby when she is hungry and i am doing nothing but feeding my child when she is hungry.simple as that.if i'm in the car and she is hungry there, she eats there.but i refuse to jog to the car everytime she is hungry out in public because someone else is uncomfortable with me feeding my baby.
jeshogan says: "but i refuse to jog to the car everytime she is hungry out in public because someone else is uncomfortable with me feeding my baby".
Oh that right there tells me you are one lazy arrogant militant b*tch with that kind of bitter shrill attitude. If people are feeling uncompfortable, i think thats where the feeding time needs to stop right there. Especially if its bad for business and scaring off customers
"@jeshogan a child being fed shoudn't offend an adult" but young childern and kid teens etc around you have no right what so ever to tell someone esles kids whats right and what wrong its selffish and mean and your not just feed in it everytime you don't use cover up and show of everything without needing to just to shock people it selfish and VERY poor mannered its not about you.
great video! i wish they'd show something like this here in the U.S. maybe it would make people think twice before suggesting a baby eat in the bathroom.

Thats a copout excuse moogyboobles, i mean you go to the bathroom to urinate or defacate right??. And when you need to urinate so badley, i'm sure your kids are waiting outside for you to get done. You mean to tell me that with all those kids that you have, they cant waite outside till after you get done using the restroom to breastfeed your babie??
So I should put my other children at risk, making them wait outside a nursing room for half hour or so, when anything could happen just because of your problem? Perhaps you should stay at home. Children are a part of life, as is the way they are fed.
Breastfeeding is eating. That's the point of this ad. I can understand that it could make someone not used to seeing it uncomfortable. However, there is nothing unsanitary about breastfeeding. The only harm caused by someone breastfeeding in public is that some others, like yourself may be uncomfortable or disgusted.
To be quite frank, an infant's comfort and need to eat are more important than your comfort. You're an adult, you'll tell your friends about "the appalling woman who breastfed in public" and get over.
And you know bathrooms are not intended for b/fing. If they were there would be places to sit. I guarantee that someone who had to pee would be angry at a b/fing mom who took up a stall for a half hour or so, and rightly so.

Yes after watching this vidio clip, yes it is unsanitary for a grown adult to eat his food in bathroom just the same a newborn infant eating the way he/she eats in public through sex parts while everyone is eating with a silverware
The breasts' primary function is to feed babies, not something for men to grope and stare at. Breasts are not just sex parts, do female animals use thier breasts during mating? Your posts on this subject are just making you look an ignorant, uneducated breast obsessed fool. People like you should go eat in the toilet/baby change (which is basically a toilet) or other area which you deem suitable for infant feeding, beause it's you who has the problem.
I feel so sorry for you. Must be quite a sad existence to be offended by something so wonderful.
There's no way I could go an feed in private. I have other children with me most of the time, how do you expect us all to fit into a tiny feeding room?
I don't drive, trips out take hours and babies should be fed on cue, frequently. This is essential for maintaining an good supply and for the mental health of the baby (scheduling feeds can be damaging physically and mentally). Why should busy mothers, doing their best for their children pander to your neurosis. If you don't like it don't look (you can't see anything anyway).The more women do this in public the better.
Children will learn it's normal, how babies should be fed, and will grow up and feed their own. We'd be a healthier society if more of use were breastfed

Umm Moogyboobles...normal and natural does not equal public ok!!!, we are not animals. You wanna breastfeed your child oin public like some Chimpanzee, then maybe animals like you need to put on some clothes for the sake of decency. I think its normal and natural to urinate/defacate, but you wouldnt see me whipping it out openly next to some patrons to try and make a point
bayshark82, get over it - the comparison to urinating/defecating is actually appropriate if you have two braincells to rub together - babies do THOSE in PUBLIC all the time, right next to you in the checkoutline, and you see just as much of their "naughty bits" as you do of their mama's when they're nursing. Most women don't unbutton the top of their shirts to nurse, you've probably walked past a few hundred nursing babies without ever realizing it.
"We'd be a healthier society if more of use were breastfed". No moogyboobles, this is not about a healthy society if more people were breastfed otther wise you would use dignity and common sense to leave it in your home or in a bathroom. What this all boils down to is that this is all mainly about yourselves, you want to use your baby just so you can have an excuse to just flaunt it anywhere you feel like it. Thats an exhibitionist attitude if you ask me
Oh yes everyone sees my tits when I feed! You can't see anything, you obviously never seen anyone nurse. Looks like a baby having a cuddle. You see more tits on a newsagents stand.
bayshark: you really have some kind of a problem... Maybe you should have your analyst help you to find out what makes you so upset about a woman feeding her child in the most natural way there is.

"The more women do this in public the better". Your wrong about that moogyboobles, its not good for the babies immune system to always be outdoors. A newborn baby under 12 months of age needs to be indoors at all cost to prevent airborne sickness diseases outside, pnuemonia and other deadly infectionous diseases. Doctor recommends that a baby must stay inside
No doctor would recommend that a baby stay indoors, they recommend that a baby can go outside as soon as the mum feels well enough after the birth. Bmilk gives the baby the immunity they need from infections etc. Also it is better for a baby to catch some bugs while young, it strengthens thier immune system. The children who have weak immune systems are those who have a medical condition that lowers it or those who have been shielded from every sniffle & bug that is going around.

Umm Moogyboobles...theres nothing so wonderful looking at all having you or your children be subjected to a mother nursing her 13lbs pet baby monkey in public ok!!!. Have some consideration for other peoples feelings and sensibilitys. If you cant use a bathroom, there are nursing lounges or a car to nurse your baby in for good privacy. We cannot accomadate inappropriate behaviour to be conducted in public i'm sorry
I salute the Australian Breastfeeding Association for making this ad, I'm mum to a gorgeous 6 month old girl and I breast feed. I stand at 6ft tall and know what to do to people who really annoy me so I'd love to deal with someone who dared to approach me and try to tell me that they'd appreciate it if i went to the toilet to feed my baby - I think their fkn head would be down the toilet before they could even get the sentence out!

1. There's a difference between a baby who probably doesn't even know what those noises are, and a person old enough to feel a little nauseous at hearing those noises while eating.
2. Actually, I WOULD eat in a washroom. Sometimes I need to (when my blood sugar is low while I'm on the toilet) but I've even eaten in a washroom when I DIDN'T need to. (Hell, I was drinking coffee while sitting on a toilet just this afternoon.)
So yeah.

Why is it we see countless ads on TV for baby formula (12+ months) but we never, ever see any commercials that advocate and support breastfeeding? Why is it that nobody seems to bat an eyelid when a baby is fed a bottle in a food court, but when a mum breastfeeds in the same area she is stared at or talked down to?! I have never, and WILL never feed my son in a public toilet OR a public parents room. I'll feed him where I want whether people like it or not.

@brisbanette don't want looks or talked down don't show off your child is feeding its not you and what you want if you do it right when nothing would be seen as your child would cover nipple and baby hands and top bra would cover the rest easy other woman do it and don't get looks and fed there child with fuss

But the man on the toilet doesn't have to take out any of his sexual parts to eat, unlike a nursing mother who has to expose her breasts. Yes, it is natural, yes, the breasts are there to feed our babies, but like it or not, breasts are sexual, and until our culture evolves to where they are not, you don't show them in public. I am a woman and I am uncomfortable when a woman flashes a nipple in public. But if done with some modesty without exposing, I have no problem with it.
nancy516911 3 years ago
sexual parts? I'm sorry, sexual is the secundairy function of breast and nipple. The first is feeding our children. And assuming a baby's needs to be less important than what you assume to be our culture, I'm sorry, my choice will allways be to fulfill my childs needs.
linazona 2 years ago 3
Nancy, you said the "until our culture evolves to where they are not sexual only" ...how will our culture evolve to accepting breasts as feeding if we dont SHOW our culture that breasts are meant for feeding. Doesnt hiding them just keep the stigma up that breasts are only for sexual purposes? The ONLY way to normalize breastfeeding is to nurse in public. period :-)

Hey tell that to these strippers who use their own breast to sell and use them to get admiration. We didnt sexualize breast, you women have done this all to yourselves from day one and then turn the blame around on us like its our fault. And besides, a newborn baby is not supposed to be out and about outside all the time due to their immune system not being strong enough

What bollocks! If babies are breastfed that means they have the best immune system they can for a start...and what about older babies who are breastfed? Can they not go out either.

Learn what?? Give me a damn break, a baby has all the time in the world to learn alot of shit without having to be subjected to the outdoors all the time. And besides a baby is too young to even learn anything yet when they are not in school. Did you know a baby can die due to pnuemonia complications if exposed outdoors all the time?
spitzbully 3 years ago
Seriously you have no idea about how a baby's brain develop do you? First 3 years it develops at the fastest rate ever, watching and learning, seeing how it's parents socialise in those early years is how they learn to be people! Learning the language from watching and listening to other people. If you keep them indoors all day they will get rickets!
moogyboobles 3 years ago
spitzbully, f you breastfeed your baby and expose him outdoors all the time your baby will not get sick. That's why, breastfeeding at all times baby desires is what is being promoted here, for his health and mother. There a humongous amount of evidence of the benefits of breastfeeding for the child AND mother. The only sexual part of a human are the reproductive system. Have you actually seen a (mammal) animal sucking on their mate's tit? NO. Get Educated!

Breasts are *not* intrinsically sex parts/organs to begin with. They are *used* as such by *some* cultures on our planet (mostly "western" cultures) but there are also cultures that are disgusted by the very idea of using breasts as sex toys. They are no more "sex objects" than are your earlobes or lips or ankles. When BFing should be limited to a bathroom b/c of being sexual, we sure as heck better also put on earmuffs, cover our lips (veiled head?) and make sure to never show sexy ankles.

Breast are not sex parts, well you are in denial about that. I am sure you get turned on by the sight of breast everytime you go to stripclubs or watch R rated films. Breast are wired that way to be sexual, and if you women would stop spending so much money on breast implants to try and please us men along with your low-cut tops, then maybe breast wouldnt be veiwed as sexual. You cant have it bothways macbump

I'm not particularly in favour of breast implants personally. But breasts are *not* wired "that way" to be sexual any more than, as I said, earlobes, ankles, or lips are. If we have to cover up to breastfeed we might as well be covering our own lips to eat, cover our ears up lest they offend someone who might want to nibble on the lobes, etc.

bathrooms are designed for natural bodily function process, and its not only urinating, defacating but for breastfeeding.

Plus breastfeeding is a biohazard and it could cause contamination to eating supplys which would cause a class action lawsuit to the company
spitzbully 3 years ago
A baby breastfeeding IS eating. You're secreting saliva, which is actually bacteria-laden and dirty while you're chewing your food. Also, I find the noises most people make while eating disgusting, yet I don't force strangers to supply white noise machines or soothing music so I don't have to hear it. Nor do I throw a fit when food goes flying out of their mouth as they speak (as people usually do).

Though to address breastfeeding mommy a bit, this feed at all costs is a bit irational.

Far from it. Western culture is childist, like you are. If we brought our children up better, breastfeeding being a good start as not only does it decrease their risk of obesity and diseases like cancer and diabetes (problems I do believe the US have on a major scale) but also improves their IQ (I won't mention Bush) and helps their brain develop in a way they are emotionally and mentaly healthy.

Well I don't I use mine to feed my children the best way I can. They can still be sexual. I just don't see why it's so disgusting to feed a baby (and you don't see anything anyway) but everywhere you look breasts are there, way more exposed than when you nurse a baby.
Why should I feed in a toilet, just what do you suggest I do with my other children then? More women nurse in public, perhaps the more society will realise their main purpose and people won't have the issues you do!

You do realise we are mammals? Meaning we produce milk for our young. It's the most natural thing in the world to feed a baby human milk. Women can multitask you know, one minute they are sexual, and then when we feed our young they are not.
How about we all hide our hands in public too? After all we can fuck with those too. They can be sexual.
Did you know at birth a newborn can crawl unaided searching for the breast to feed with no help at all? Hardly exploiting a child is it?

Have you actually read the laws? Every state has a law protecting women from public indecency when breastfeeding. Look it up and then say something.
loliusn17 3 years ago
just because there is a law that protects her rights to breastfeed it still doesnt give her a right to take advantage of the fact that knowing there is a law that says this is what she can do that she can snuff her no up at everyone to try and offend others. Just be considerate thats all, i mean there is a law that gives pedestrians the right of way, that still doesnt give pedestrians the right to jaywalk either

just because there is the right to free speech doesn't mean that you should go around passing judgement on a mother for feeding her child.but guess what.the best part about our rights is our priviledge to use them and be perfectly within them.so you've got your right to free speech and my baby has a right to eat when and where they are hungry.take it for what you will.but your rantings will do nothing but make you look silly and rude.babies need to eat, if you don't like it, turn your head.

See? More ignorance. Urine is expelled from the urethra. If you use a urethra to have sex, there is more wrong with you than I thought.

GREAT!! Adults eating in public is somehow not offensive (in fact, it often IS) and yet we send mums to the loo. I prefer the term "nursing" or "natural nursing" to "BREASTfeeding", I mean, would you say "penile insemination"...?

I think it's a positive step in the right direction, but fear those against breastfeeding in public won't be affected in the least.
As for other people being uncomfortable with seeing it in public... I don't enjoy seeing fat women in bike pants in public either, but it's still their right and not my place to object.

Why use a bottle when you can feed anyhow?
Why the need of a pump, a bottle, time to pump, time to get the right temperature, time to wash.........Babies only need to breastfeed......If it doesnt work, ok to pump or to give formula - but if the baby and mother can breastfeed - how can any one have a problem with that? SICK! We would not exist if babies were not breastfed.......

i dont get why women cant wait to get in a private place for example a parental restroom when they are in a shopping mall or in there car to breast feed i mean the baby wont die if it waits for like 5 mins just to get fed. some women just love to whip out there tits in public just because they like to argue and say im a women and i have rights to just because they get a kick out of it
pauldonald 4 years ago
the parental restrooms in malls i have seen have couches so the mothers can be comfortable while breastfeeding, tables to change the babys diaper and maybe the government need more to put more restrooms in malls but all the ones i have been have a parental restroom
pauldonald 4 years ago
So what do you suggest you do when you don't drive it's an hour of walking to do the school run! We don't just go shopping you know and many places don't have feeding rooms, those I've seen are not big enough to take the other children in with you.
If you make baby wait too long they get distressed and we finally get to feed it can affect their latch. Babies have no concept of time yet and the stress caused by making them wait can have a lasting effect on their development.

how about extracting breast milk into a bottle?
pauldonald 4 years ago
Some babies will not take a bottle, also, when pumping, it is very important to pump just as often as the baby feeds. Breastfeeding is supply/demand, missing out on even one nursing session could really pose a problem.
robsickmode 4 years ago 4
I agree! Women are only allowed to "whip out there [sic] tits in public" if they are selling beer or a car!
Shame on you women for thinking of feeding your children with those things! You'd think that's what they existed for or something!

it's not the the WOMAN has to wait, but the BABY has to wait.when they are hungry they should be fed when hungry just like a bottle fed baby.the car is very uncomfortable to breastfeed in(no room)and depending on the time of year can be very cold or way to hot.women don't want to argue about it.they just want to feed their child in peace.there should really be no problem.if someone was hitting their child, yes you have a right to be offended.a child being fed shoudn't offend an adult.

OH WHAT A LYER YOU ARE JESHOGAN a car is not uncompfortable so stop trying to use this bullshit excuse of a lie to cover your tracks. If the car is cold, how hard is it to flip the switch to turn on your heater? Or if its hot inside the car, how hard is it to turn on your airconditioner?? Your not thinking too rational or logical in this debate one bit. And feeding your baby in peace should not equal=doing it in every street corner because honey that is not a peaceful enviroment at all

then if you like breastfeeding in the car go right ahead, until you have breasts and a baby to feed try not giving out unsolicited advice.i will feed my baby when she is hungry and i am doing nothing but feeding my child when she is hungry.simple as that.if i'm in the car and she is hungry there, she eats there.but i refuse to jog to the car everytime she is hungry out in public because someone else is uncomfortable with me feeding my baby.

jeshogan says: "but i refuse to jog to the car everytime she is hungry out in public because someone else is uncomfortable with me feeding my baby".
Oh that right there tells me you are one lazy arrogant militant b*tch with that kind of bitter shrill attitude. If people are feeling uncompfortable, i think thats where the feeding time needs to stop right there. Especially if its bad for business and scaring off customers

"@jeshogan a child being fed shoudn't offend an adult" but young childern and kid teens etc around you have no right what so ever to tell someone esles kids whats right and what wrong its selffish and mean and your not just feed in it everytime you don't use cover up and show of everything without needing to just to shock people it selfish and VERY poor mannered its not about you.

Thats a copout excuse moogyboobles, i mean you go to the bathroom to urinate or defacate right??. And when you need to urinate so badley, i'm sure your kids are waiting outside for you to get done. You mean to tell me that with all those kids that you have, they cant waite outside till after you get done using the restroom to breastfeed your babie??
bayshark82 4 years ago
So I should put my other children at risk, making them wait outside a nursing room for half hour or so, when anything could happen just because of your problem? Perhaps you should stay at home. Children are a part of life, as is the way they are fed.

Restaurant dining area's are for eating, not for breastfeeding. Bathrooms are for breastfeeding, not only just for urinating/defacating
bayshark82 4 years ago
Breastfeeding is eating. That's the point of this ad. I can understand that it could make someone not used to seeing it uncomfortable. However, there is nothing unsanitary about breastfeeding. The only harm caused by someone breastfeeding in public is that some others, like yourself may be uncomfortable or disgusted.
KMWD 4 years ago 5
To be quite frank, an infant's comfort and need to eat are more important than your comfort. You're an adult, you'll tell your friends about "the appalling woman who breastfed in public" and get over.
And you know bathrooms are not intended for b/fing. If they were there would be places to sit. I guarantee that someone who had to pee would be angry at a b/fing mom who took up a stall for a half hour or so, and rightly so.

Yes after watching this vidio clip, yes it is unsanitary for a grown adult to eat his food in bathroom just the same a newborn infant eating the way he/she eats in public through sex parts while everyone is eating with a silverware
bayshark82 4 years ago
The breasts' primary function is to feed babies, not something for men to grope and stare at. Breasts are not just sex parts, do female animals use thier breasts during mating? Your posts on this subject are just making you look an ignorant, uneducated breast obsessed fool. People like you should go eat in the toilet/baby change (which is basically a toilet) or other area which you deem suitable for infant feeding, beause it's you who has the problem.
kittyp05 4 years ago 2
I feel so sorry for you. Must be quite a sad existence to be offended by something so wonderful.
There's no way I could go an feed in private. I have other children with me most of the time, how do you expect us all to fit into a tiny feeding room?
moogyboobles 4 years ago
I don't drive, trips out take hours and babies should be fed on cue, frequently. This is essential for maintaining an good supply and for the mental health of the baby (scheduling feeds can be damaging physically and mentally). Why should busy mothers, doing their best for their children pander to your neurosis. If you don't like it don't look (you can't see anything anyway).The more women do this in public the better.
moogyboobles 4 years ago
Children will learn it's normal, how babies should be fed, and will grow up and feed their own. We'd be a healthier society if more of use were breastfed

Umm Moogyboobles...normal and natural does not equal public ok!!!, we are not animals. You wanna breastfeed your child oin public like some Chimpanzee, then maybe animals like you need to put on some clothes for the sake of decency. I think its normal and natural to urinate/defacate, but you wouldnt see me whipping it out openly next to some patrons to try and make a point
bayshark82 4 years ago
bayshark82, get over it - the comparison to urinating/defecating is actually appropriate if you have two braincells to rub together - babies do THOSE in PUBLIC all the time, right next to you in the checkoutline, and you see just as much of their "naughty bits" as you do of their mama's when they're nursing. Most women don't unbutton the top of their shirts to nurse, you've probably walked past a few hundred nursing babies without ever realizing it.

"We'd be a healthier society if more of use were breastfed". No moogyboobles, this is not about a healthy society if more people were breastfed otther wise you would use dignity and common sense to leave it in your home or in a bathroom. What this all boils down to is that this is all mainly about yourselves, you want to use your baby just so you can have an excuse to just flaunt it anywhere you feel like it. Thats an exhibitionist attitude if you ask me

Oh yes everyone sees my tits when I feed! You can't see anything, you obviously never seen anyone nurse. Looks like a baby having a cuddle. You see more tits on a newsagents stand.

"The more women do this in public the better". Your wrong about that moogyboobles, its not good for the babies immune system to always be outdoors. A newborn baby under 12 months of age needs to be indoors at all cost to prevent airborne sickness diseases outside, pnuemonia and other deadly infectionous diseases. Doctor recommends that a baby must stay inside
bayshark82 4 years ago
No doctor would recommend that a baby stay indoors, they recommend that a baby can go outside as soon as the mum feels well enough after the birth. Bmilk gives the baby the immunity they need from infections etc. Also it is better for a baby to catch some bugs while young, it strengthens thier immune system. The children who have weak immune systems are those who have a medical condition that lowers it or those who have been shielded from every sniffle & bug that is going around.

Umm Moogyboobles...theres nothing so wonderful looking at all having you or your children be subjected to a mother nursing her 13lbs pet baby monkey in public ok!!!. Have some consideration for other peoples feelings and sensibilitys. If you cant use a bathroom, there are nursing lounges or a car to nurse your baby in for good privacy. We cannot accomadate inappropriate behaviour to be conducted in public i'm sorry
