psg+@pitt.edu (Paul S Galvanek) Said this: >Speech that includes public displays of nudity is going to be regulated >whether you like it not. Public nudity is simply not acceptable behavior >in most communites and if a adult theater can be prevented from displaying >movie posters or handing out advertisements with nudity, women who go out >of the way to display themselves while breast feeding are sure going How come it's so difficult for people to grasp CONTEXT? If this woman was lustfully rubbing her breasts, and doing really sexually connotative things, that's one thing, but a woman breastfeeding is simply FEEDING a baby HUMAN BEING. There is no sex there. I wonder about those that actually have sexual thoughts when they see a woman breastfeeding. I think they are the problem, not the breastfeeder. >to get regualted - why should a breast feeding mother be allowed to do >in public something thing with her body that no one else is permitted to >do? If this logic were valid, then how can men be allowed to stand while urinating? or how can woman bear children? Men cannot bear children, women generally cannot stand while urinating. THIS SHOULD NOT BE TOLERATED!!!! My God! anyone with these ideas would be an outcast in European countries.... they'd view you as a pedophile or a pervert if you proposed regulating breastfeeding. They would (properly) assume that you have some guilt or pre-concieved misconceptions about sex that would make you a danger to society. Sometimes, when you feel uncomfortable in a situation, the responsibility for that discomfort is in YOU, not the person whose actions discomfort you. We can't all walk around on eggshells to keep from hurting the feelings of those in our society who were not properly equipped to deal with everyday life. These people are the exception, not the norm. THEY need to adjust, not the rest of us!!! Bob Henry bobhenry@cymedia.com
