Best Breast Cover Controversy


I was reading this article and became outraged. There are mothers who are upset because Baby Talk magazine’s cover shows a nursing baby. That’s what I see when I look at the cover of this magazine. In fact I still get this subscription for free and I loved this cover. I didn’t see a “big fat breast”, I saw a mother giving nourishment to her baby. Why, oh WHY is there always someone who is offended by this?

I don’t mean to sound like a big old bitch, but sometimes I feel as though these women who complain are jealous. I know I might be wrong, but hear me out. I think they are pissed off because either they chose not to breastfeed, physically couldn’t breastfeed, or just like to insult mothers who DO breastfeed. The excuse one woman used that she was afraid her 13 year old son would see it is a cop out. Especially because this woman breastfed all three of her children!! This is a natural part of life. Women have babies, we nurse them from the breast, the health benefits are numerous for Baby and Mommy. I could go on and on.

I’m just appalled that there are still people in this world who can’t get over the breast. This is not a sex thing. It’s a feeding thing. Do we get uncomfortable when a mother dog nurses her puppies? Do we get upset when a baby calf suckles mama Holstein’s teet? Of course not. Why should this be any different?

Ugh. I’m still raging mad about this. I will definitely be writing Baby Talk to PRAISE THEIR COVER!!
