Protesters target Facebook after photos of breastfeeding mothers removed
FACEBOOK is under fire after removing pictures of breastfeeding mothers from members' pages.
A Facebook group entitled "Hey, Facebook, breastfeeding is not obscene!'' has already attracted nearly 85,000 members and a handful of activists held a rally outside its California headquarters over the weekend
My opinion and comment to some person saying women were rubbing their breast feeding into people's faces.
When are prudes going to stop equating breast feeding to someone flashing their genitals or pornography? Breast feeding is not now, or ever been, obscene. If you don't like seeing it, stop staring! There are famous works of art depicting Mary nursing Jesus, are those also going to be 'sanitised'? And why is it FaceBook, and other weblogs/social networks, have no problem with a bare chested man? Hypocritical much? And to Mel, breast feeding isn't being 'rubbed into people's faces'. The people checking out profiles and pictures can move on and not ogle. They choose to stare and be 'offended'.
