3 Reasons Why You Should Never Breastfeed In Public

It is not a strange scene to see women trying to breastfeed their babies in church, shopping malls and other public places.

However, there has been an argument among women as to why women have to get to the public and decide to breastfeed their children. While it is practical to say that babies can cry at any time with the intention to eat, some women are have raised the bar of argument by saying mums should never do such when they are in public places.

However everything boils down to comportment. No woman will should deliberately decide to bring out her boobs in public, where other men, even if her husband is among the men. Here are 3 reasons why you should not!

1. It is totally inappropriate rude, and offensive

It does not look so appropriate to have your breast all out in the public all in the name of trying to breastfeed. Aside from breastfeeding, the breasts have just one other purpose. If you must do it while outside your home, a secluded place, where you are sure no one can see you, is suitable. Don’t use your breastfeeding to embarrass ‘unfortunate’ men in public who didn’t see it coming.

2. Breastfeeding in public can send the wrong message to a man

This is like a continuation of the first point. There are men who get turned on just at the sight of boobs…. Now, seeing this in public can cause them a great harm than good. You will not want your man (or any other man) looking all ‘up’ just because you decided to breastfeed in the public glare. Do the men around you a great favor, either cover up when breastfeeding outside or don’t do it at all if it’s not so important.

3. It shows a reduction of your self-worth as a woman

It has been observed that when women get married in this part of the world, they tend to forget about looking good. They lose their guards, some even go all the way to ‘throw away’ themselves especially when they are pregnant. This leads us to women with two or more children who do not care anymore about their bodies. Only a woman who does not have a quantifiable self worth will decide to publicly breastfeed her baby without trying to cover up.
