Re: Point of order

I think you'll find that women who breastfeed are not a small minority.
So what you're saying here is that women who currently have a youngchild which they are breastfeeding are in the majority in the UK? I doubt it. Numbers, please; what percentage of UK women have children, and how many of those mothers breastfeed? Furthermore, how many of *those* think they have a God-given right to get their knockers out whenever and wherever they please? Why does any country *need* laws to stop people harrassing breastfeeding mothers if it's a sight nobody ever finds offensive?
Secondly, I'm about as fond of the childfree lot as I am of the tit nazis. These are, after all, the people who refer to mothers as cows, and children as "crotch droppings" and "fuck trophies". I don't want kids *at all*, but that kind of dehumanisation of any group is bigotry, and I don't condone that either.
Lastly, my experience of discussion with founding members of boob_nazis is that they have no actual facts with which to construct an argument in favour of the right to breastfeed in public, and therefore resort to attempting to browbeat the world at large into agreeing with them, because obviously they are an abused minority as opposed to, say, a bunch of nutters demanding things they'll never stand a chance of getting in England. The best accusation they can find to accuse anyone who holds opinions they don't approve of is "a sense of entitlement" - whatever the hell that's supposed to mean this week. Reads like a victim complex to me.
