***But if it wasn’t actually embarrassing, then obviously nobody cared.***
The only thing wrong with public breast feeding is there are too may men with the mentality of Beavus and Butthead.
The rest of us don’t worry about. I saw a woman breast feeding her baby back in 1959 at the public swimming pool in Roswell NM. No one really paid any attention to it.
Unfortunately, there is too much truth in that statement.
Personally, I would think most women would want to be discreet but then there are the in your face militant types (Beavis and Butthead feminist) who do it only to push the envelope and get attention.
I personally would just look the other way if I saw a mother nursing her child just out of respect....and of course if she had an "accident" would be more comfortable in having it happen in my presence.
