I was checking out singlemomseeking’s blog the other day, and saw that Facebook has been pulling photos of mamas breastfeeding their babies, on the grounds that they are “obscene”. Can you believe that? For fuck’s sake.
It turns out that here in America, a woman breastfeeding her baby is not the most natural thing in the world. Best keep those milk jugs and babes covered under nursing blankies, ladies or you might offend the general public, or worse still, get a citation for indecent exposure.
You can join the petition against Facebook here.
It’s ridiculous. Really.
