I read a website called digg.com quite often and it collects news stories that people find interesting. I came across one about a lady who had posted pictures of herself breast feeding her child on facebook. These picture of course were taken down shortly after being posted due to explicit content. Here is the thing though, alongside her page was a ad for American Apparel with a girl topless and wearing mini skirt posing in a sexual manner.  How is it that an advertisement with sexual appeal is okay to show half your breast but showing a natural thing like breast feeding is not? To pose another question what do think of women breast feeding in public ? Is this okay or not? I personally believe that it is that women’s choice to do it in public or not, but personally I would never do it.  Keep in mind I also never wish to bear children.Breasts shown in a sexual manner seem to always be accepted by the general public but not something natural like breast feeding. When you think back into history where would we be without breast feeding? Why has it turned into something explicit or grotesque ?
