Children obviously don't have a voice in this matter (except for their heart-wrenching wails), mothers don't seem to have much of a voice either. What is the problem with breasts?? Why do people find them offensive? Why do women need to cover up when they are feeding their children? This seems so puritanical to me. Could someone please explain what this society finds so morally wrong about breasts??? Debbie
