There’s a breastfeeding in public-issue in Denmark right now. A woman was thrown out of a restaurant in the Tivoli garden for discretely breastfeeding her infant.

Half of the human population has a pair: we see them on the cover of magazines, we see them on the beach, we see them in movies, we seem them on the catwalks, we describe them in books, a lot of women get them enlarged (and not for the purpose of hiding them) … yet, some people get offended if a mother breast-feeds her infant in a public place.

A woman can go to any restaurant in the western world and show all the cleavage she wants, and nobody is going to escort her out of the place because her cleavage is too deep. Why, then, can’t a mother breast-feed her child in that same restaurant? What is the morale difference?

My home under the beating sun.
