Breastfeed in the bathroom. Heck, pissing is a normal bodily function, but I don’t do it at the booth.

Would you eat your Bloomin' Onion or Ribs in the bathroom?

Something that's increasingly rare is the fact that many women's restrooms actually had a seperate lounge area, apart from the rest room itself. They usually had plush chairs and were designed for just this sort of thing, without making the woman feed her child in the bathroom.

Yah. Eat in the bathroom then, why don’t you? That’s all breastfeeding is. Eating. Nourishment.

It never ceases to amaze me. In this country, we can see breasts encased in Victoria’s Secret latest concoction of lace and nylon, watch Baywatch gals bounce across the screen, Google Janet Jackson’s Superbowl escapade (boobie! cool!) or see Pamela Anderson’s cleavage on the front page of every supermarket tabloid.

But God forbid you use your breasts for what they were intended for (and it wasn’t for men, much as they might enjoy them.) It was to **feed** infants. No adult goes to Applebees and eats their meals in the restroom - why should a woman want to sit on a toilet to feed a baby? Contrary to what some people think, if you’re nursing, getting a baby to take a bottle isn’t always an option. And besides the health factor, one reason women nurse is to not have to lug bottles around, make formula etc.

Other countries handle this so much better. Europe is great. There is something wrong in America, that breasts are A-Ok to titillate with but not to feed with. We associate sex with breasts. Feeding a child is not a sex act and it’s nowhere near equivilent to relieving oneself.

Breastfeed in the bathroom.

Go eat your lunch in the bathroom if watching a baby eat is so damned offensive to you.

You go drink some milk while you are in the toilet and get back to us.

Breastfeeding in a bathroom is repulsive.

The customer said she was being discreet and facing a corner. That sounds like enough effort was made, to me. People like the person who complained are the ones that like to stir up trouble.

And wean at 7 months? C’mon.

I cannot stand when ignorant people, especially ignorant men, comment on the whole breastfeeding issue.
