'Breast-Feeding Is Obscene'
Thirty-nine states currently have laws that
specifically allow women to breast-feed in any
public or private location. Apparently, that doesn't
apply to nursing over the Internet.
Australia's Sydney Morning Herald last
week reported a story on Facebook's
antibreast-feeding stance. The social networking
site that recently opened its doors to grown-ups
has been removing user photos of breast-feeding,
calling them obscene, and has blocked some
nursing-mom-photoposters from the site, including
breastfeeding advocate and blogger Karen Speed.
According to SMH, Facebook
spokeswoman Meredith Chin said, "Photos
containing an exposed breast do violate our
Terms and are removed." Much like every other
breastfeeding mom slight in the past few years
(most recently Applebee's and Delta Air Lines),
this one has sparked a protest of its own. The
virtual ban has been met with a virtual
group/petition entitled: "Hey, Facebook,
breastfeeding is not obscene!" Since the group's
launch in June, more than 9,000 folks, both men
and women, have joined it.
Moms who have posted photos ask, what
constitutes "exposed breast?" Is it the nipple or the
inch or so of flesh you see after the baby's latched
on? Many simply are telling Facebook to grow up.
Breast-feeding is natural and healthy for children.
The government encourages moms to nurse.
Many states protect women's rights to do so
wherever they may be when their hungry babies
start demanding food.
I've got to think that the folks at Facebook
have better things to do than battle over a
woman's right to nurse in public, particularly with
all the much more obscene groups on the site
focused on both women's and men's genitalia.
