I am an MD, and a strong believer in the value of breastfeeding and
a strong supporter of breastfeeding in general. I nursed all three
of my kids (two were twins) until they were well over a year old,
and never had to flash in public. I learned to use a blanket at
home, and nursed my kids everywhere, in church, in the mall,
everywhere, without flashing a boob. It's not that hard.
Hate to be the stick in the mud, but it's their site, and if they
don't want nudity, and your icon flashes the boob, they have a
right to ask you not to use it. You don't like it, go somewhere
else.
I think making this about breastfeeding gives the impression that
women have to be exhibitionists to breastfeed their children, which
isn't true.
