I took the post below from this Wonderful Blog I stumbled upon
http://iinformedparenting.blogspot.com/ I just wanted to share it with everyone else.
Original Post: http://iinformedparenting.blogspot.com/2009/12/society-and-sexualized-breast.html
The original author of this article/blog/post is unknown- to whomever you are, out there in the world of cyber space... a HUGE thank you!!! And if you ARE the author, let us know who you are so that we can give credit where credit is due!!!
Society is so sexualized that they have forgotten what God created
our breasts for in the first place. They throw hissy fits over
breastfeeding in public and expect us to feed our babies in dirty,
stinky bathrooms. So I ask you to judge for yourself, which breasts are
truly offensive here? And I understand some of you won't think ANY of
them are offensive. But I am making a point by showing how ridiculous
it is that society looks upon scantily clad women in sexy ads as ok,
even GREAT, but providing important nourishment and nutrients to your
child in public by breastfeeding is offensive, distasteful, disgusting,
whatever. Give me your feedback. :)
Wait... well, this is a bad example. Let's try again...
Hmmm... just a minute. Surely i can find better ones than these...
Eh... still not racy enough. I'll check one more time.
That's better. LOOK AT THAT! I see about an inch of boob! Totally disgusting.
Ugh! Look at that indecency!! She must be from some third-world country to be exposed like that!!
Now that's just... There's no words to describe how inappropriate that is. Something needs to be done!!
Now
this takes the cake!! How dare they actually put such a disgusting
image on the cover of a magazine where teenage boys might see it. This
simply must be disposed of ASAP via a shredder, before teenage boys
learn what boobs are really for!!
This just makes me want to vomit!
...but why stop at breastfeeding women? There are boobs
everywhere. Beware! If you thought the above photos were offensive, you
WILL DEFINITELY be offended by the photos below.
Not this one though. This was in plain view on newsstands and in mailboxes in 19 countries worldwide!
Not this one either. This one actually won an award!
Oh, and i guess this ones fine too, since everyone knows you can't sell jeans without someone being topless.
or beer, for that matter!
or sunglasses...
or CDs...
...you
know what? Maybe I'm crazy, but i think that someone mixed up some
photos here. The first batch are offensive, but the second batch are
just fine and dandy???
people who live in glass bras:
shouldn't throw stones:
Which message is healthier?
Breastfeeding which is medically approved to give HUMANS the best start in life. . . or
Images that promote STD's, unattainable beauty standards, sexual promiscuity, plastic surgery, and just plain TRUE indecency?
Which would you rather your daughter live up to?
If you think women have the right to breastfeed their children no matter
where they are, please re-post this. The least you can do is help some
children get the best nutrition they can get. Breastfed babies have
lower instances of obesity, asthma, allergies, certain childhood
diseases, learning disabilities, and other health problems. For each
woman who feels like she shouldn't be breastfeeding right where she is,
there is an innocent baby who is losing out. Don't be responsible for
any child's health problems. support breastfed babies and their right
to eat in public like the rest of us.
This Blog is not Topic specific. I rather share everything going on in my life then just one particular thing. You will find me talking anything from my coupon/ stockpile obsession, my journey through being a New Mom to just my everyday life.

Abandon Ship!
Well it looks like once again I abandoned my Blog. So much has went on in over a year, I should have felt the need to post everything when it happened but I just haven't felt like it. Every time I would want to sit down to make a post I would sit there and just stare at the screen with a blank look on my face. I have so much to update on now that IDK where to start. Not to mention right this very moment I'm sick and my back has been bothering me bad that sitting here is starting to get to me. Ever since I had that accident at work where I tore that muscle and then finding Arthritis it's hard to do anything, especially with the baby. I could Ramble on forever but I'm just going to leave it at this and come back another day.
