Prompts! Today I came across this FB post… which ignited the issue of that flamboyant behavior that’s disgraceful: BREASTFEEDING IN PUBLIC

This is the post I chanced upon… And that prompted my next response:

I agree. However, I also think it’s not something that should be done publicly in a world where everyone wears Gucci… (meaning it’s not an African village where people walk around totally naked; or if there is a remnant of clothing it equals to what’s taken in our perspective as “scantily clad”)…breastfeeding in front of everyone is tantamount to defecating in front of everyone! The sexualization is a nonissue compared to the idea of secretion or excretion! But if one really wants to focus on the sexual aspect, then, just like you don’t want to see a man flashing out of the blue clear sky… think of those who wouldn’t like seeing other breasts when they eat or converse or need to be attentive at a conference etc. There must be cubicles, other corners available everywhere for breastfeeding. Like the need for toilets! Though breastfeeding stations should be separated from toilets for hygienic reasons.

*The Gucci was a joke of course… a reference to a world revolves around fashion…And this in turn, reminded me of one of the Greek songs I love the most: Gucci φόρεμα
