That's funny. The kid is a little too greedy for breasts.

The only thing that grosses me out is that it's probably filthy from all the men who copped a feel without washing their hands after wiping their asses.

It almost answers a question I had once with a nudist friend, whose kid came over wanting to suck as we were sitting around. Would a kid in a nudist gathering try to suck on any of the available breasts?

I'd have to say that if a kid old enough to walk over and either ask or insinuate the he/she wanted to breastfeed with someone--nudist colony or not--then that action alone is disturbing enough for me to think "isn't the kid a bit old for that??"

I never breastfed, it grossed me out, but I have nothing against those who do, but I think there should be some social rules involved like:

1. Don't whip out your boob in the middle of a mall or other public place and start feeding your kid--no one really wants to watch that, especially while they're eating their own lunch.

2. Have a private place/area in restrooms for breastfeeding in heavily populated areas for that sort of thing, so #1 above doesn't happen.

3. If your kid is old enough to eat with utensils, then for Christ's sake, knock that shit off and get some therapy! Children do not need to be breastfed until they're 3 and 4 years old and can walk up and lift Mommy's shirt themselves for a "drink" ICK!

Wow, that is really showing a intolerance for a natural human function that some cultures and times find nothing wrong with.

And this diatribe is really disturbing. Who are you to be telling mothers how to feed their young? If you have a problem seeing a mother feeding her child as nature intended, DON'T LOOK!!
Go take your meal and eat it in the restroom.

BTW, you'd best not harrass a breastfeeding mother in Florida. We have a law against that - you could be eating your meals in jail, where there are no babies. The law says mothers have a right to breastfeed anywhere in public and that supercedes any local anti-nudity laws about exposed breasts.
