Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine suggests ‘chestfeeding,’ ‘father’s milk’ in new guidelines
The Washington Times ^ | August 13, 2021 | Valerie Richardson

The Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine has issued guidelines that suggest employing such terms as “chestfeeding,” “human milk feeding,” and “parent’s milk” to promote what it calls “gender-inclusive language.”

The ABM position statement on “infant feeding and lactation-related language and gender,” co-authored by eight doctors and the academy, said that “the use of de-sexed or gender-inclusive language is appropriate in many settings.”

“ABM recognizes that not all people who give birth and lactate identify as female, and that some of these individuals identify as neither female nor male,” said the four-page document posted July 29.

It’s just the daily dose of typical insane liberalism on full public display...nothing to see here.
They belong in an asylum, not govt. or anywhere else in public for that matter.

(Oh and since this is what passes as “science” and “medicine” now, why would anyone believe anything else that “scientists” and “doctors” say?)

I find this all fascinating, how the Deep State may have started things going in this direction a LONG LONG time ago.

For example, the wokification of Scientific American. I was noticing that SciAm was becoming unsubscribable at first in the early 1980's, then unreadable a few years after that. While kids were in college, their tuning into globalism, that most colleges adhered to having part of the junior year abroad. What we see today is just turning the same knob clockwise up a few more degrees.

It's diabolical, it's organized, and it's breathtaking in scope - how woven big pharma is with MSM is with politicians is with hi tech is with social media is with education is with...

In Brave New World “mother” is a dirty word. Scary to think that Aldous Huxley predicted this in the 1930’s.

My son in law is as liberal as they come. He now has a newborn son. He sends pictures of the faces the little man makes at him when he gives him a bottle. That’s sanity. This article is nonsense.

I expect La Leche League will need to change their name to La Loca League.

More like Loopy Loco League

Genetic defined MALE humans (homo sapiens) CANNOT lactate-— no matter how much suction or massaging is applied. Can NOT happen.

Possibly if the genetically defined male human has breast cancer (a quite rare condition) and it is not lactation which is released... not milk.

Never can happen. This is beyond idiotic and blindly ridiculous. Suggested “TERMS” indeed— their agenda “science” is... NOT science.

Female mammals give birth and produce milk for their young.

This is a truth.

Truth is not a construction. It is not open to interpretation. It is a truth.

Why do we let these perverted demons control language and the narrative?

I read a comment somewhere yesterday from a woman who said she bought four 1984 Merriam-Webster dictionaries to pass to her grandkids so that they would know what words used to mean.
