that makes me furious....

seriously: remind me never to get film developed the old fashioned way... just one more thing to watch out for when it comes to breastfeeding. It's sad that people are so closed minded about the food source we've been providing for our children for millennia.

yup. And what really set me off is that Angelina Jolie was on the cover of some magazine breastfeeding one of her twins. Brad Pitt took the picture but he wasn't considered a kook or pervert...

right? I mean there was so much support for that cover (of W?) that they created a statue to support lactivism, etc. based on that. This has the biggest picture, I've found even including the press release:

I think it's interesting... although my first thought when someone says "Naked Angelina Jolie" is not "breastfeeding" lol!
