@MagsRags the point was initially made by @dpworkin that using the breast in a manner for providing nutrition was acceptable. The homeless person example points out that it’s more complex than simply using a breast for feeding or not. A homeless person and a baby are both hungry human beings who can receive nutrition from a breast, as such the comparison is reasonable (if a bit extreme).
It seems like you both are drawing the distinction at it being your child vs. not your child, so you don’t think a woman has the right to wet-nurse another woman’s baby in public?
Let me put it another way:
– A woman has the right to use her breast for feeding whomever she chooses because it’s her body, right?
- A woman has the right to feed her own child in public, right?
- So why can’t she choose to feed someone else in public (even something as ridiculous as a homeless person)? Get it?
- And just for argument’s sake, what if it were her own 25-year-old daughter, would that really make a difference? (say she gave birth at 15, and again at 40)
Also, it might be worth considering why a woman doesn’t have the right to expose her chest publicly when not breastfeeding.
As for the photo arguments, I think you make a fair point there.
