FULL TITLE: 'We don't want to make a man uncomfortable in church': Mother says she was told to leave a CHURCH for breastfeeding

A breastfeeding mother claims she was escorted out of a church service in Virginia and was told: 'We don't want to make a man uncomfortable in church.'

Annie Peguero has posted a video on Facebook about her treatment on Sunday at the Summit Church in Springfield and said she would never go back there.

Peguero, a personal trainer and military wife, said a church official told her: 'We don't want to make a man uncomfortable in church, and we also don't want to make a new churchgoer feel uncomfortable.'

“In coming weeks thousands of breastfeeding women will have a “feed in” in that church one Sunday morning.”

I think all this was to cause that.

My moonbat sister proudly went to all she could for as long as she could.

Then years later on Nov. 9, posted her personal hatred for her family members who voted for Trump.

“In my church, women with screaming babies and who need to breast feed usually go into the back.”

Not just with screaming babies.

In 1 Corinthians 14:34-35, Paul wrote: “As in all the congregations of the saints, women should remain silent in the churches. They are not allowed to speak, but must be in submission, as the Law says. If they want to inquire about something, they should ask their own husbands at home; for it is disgraceful for a woman to speak in the church” (vv. 33-35).

Babies do not belong in Church, period.

““It’s preferable to breastfeed in a bathroom stall or a car, rather than whipping your boob out in public for all to see.””

You don’t eat in a bathroom stall! That is just nasty. Now certain members of our population have sex there but that’s on them. As for the car, depending on the time of year it may be too hot or too cold.

Like I said these women need not make a production of this, and suspect this chick was. Do it discretely and no one will be the wiser.

[Georgia Girl 2]

So true.

[Morgana]

Saint Paul said nothing about screaming babies but wish he had!!

[LaineyDee]

It’s a safe bet that Mary covered herself modestly when feeding Baby Jesus.

And removed herself from the midst of any males present when doing so. It's about respect for yourself, your husband and society in general.

This child is 19 month old, certainly old enough to eat some animal crackers or something else if a bit hungry. I was expecting this to be a 2 month old.

Aha. Sounds like mommy is a bit of an activist.

There’s a woman who breastfeeds her baby in the FRONT pew of church every Sunday. She is discreet, so no one sees her bare breast, yet it’s still silly. I’m relieved no one says a word, as I think it obvious she’s looking for attention and would love someone to pick a fight.

If you can't make a distinction between eliminating waste and nourishment you have problems that can't be addressed here.

It’s preferable to breastfeed in a bathroom stall

I rest my case.

[so_real]

Women breastfeed, men shave, neither needs to be done in public. If a man were shaving at the church's drinking fountain, I reckon he'd be asked to leave too. At least, I hope he would.

[MeganC]

Just me, but I’d never bring an infant to church with me. If I go to church I’m there to worship and if I have a baby with me then I’m taking care of the baby.

I can do one or the other but not both. That means there’s some Sundays where I have to stay home.

[LostPassword]

I don’t care what the issue is, if a church asks you to leave, it’s not the right church for you (or you are doing something you also disagree with). There are LOTs of churches with LOTs of different attitudes (try to breastfeed in a Mosque).

“Freedom of assembly” does not mean you have the freedom to require that every assembly accept you.

It isn’t polite to make others uncomfortable. She should have gone into the nursery or another room.

I was reading some history of the old American west. When a mom had male guests in her home and she had a hungry baby, she would turn her chair away from her guests and nurse her baby.

[Mrs. Don-o]

"It’s preferable to breastfeed in a bathroom stall or a car, rather than whipping your boob out in public for all to see."

There aren't just two alternatives: "feeding in the bathroom," or "whipping your boob out for all to see."

If the ladies' room is equipped with a little alcove with a comfy chair or a sofa with pillows (as some well-appointed ladies' rooms are), then that would be ideal. Otherwise, the typical restroom is a terribly unappetizing place to relax and nurse. YOU wouldn't want to be confined to eating in a public toilet.

"Whipping out a boob" ---Oh, Lord, no. That's just exhibitionism. But I've never seen this, thank God. I've always seen sensible moms modestly nursing.. if I noticed them at all.

The third alternative would be: going to a quiet spot --- back corner would be good, baby room would be better --- and nursing modestly with breast covered. I know this can be done: years back, I did it in church, and even up on a speakers' platform. As planned, nobody noticed.

OK, but this lady's baby is 19 months? In this case, a sippy-cup should have sufficed. At least until the end of the service!

[Boogieman]

Modesty is a Christian virtue.

[Mrs. Don-o]

Don't compare breastfeeding to urinating. Please. Quite different in sights, smells, and public-hygiene and sanitation implications.

For instance, you can quite properly and comfortably nurse a baby in a public place (restaurant corner booth facing back, nice and private) --- this is assuming the woman is modestly covered and keeps it that way. The same cannot be said about urinating. Fer cryin' out loud.

So go ahead and look, because there's nothing to see but smiles.

[Drew68]

There are LOTs of churches with LOTs of different attitudes (try to breastfeed in a Mosque).

The point of this type of activism is to force Christians to comply, not Muslims.

Mom is a left-wing moonbat breastfeeding activist who is testing compliance to Virginia law by whipping her tits out in church and bringing formal complaints against those whose parishioners object.

She has no plans to set foot in a single mosque.
