Today I would like to address an question in an email I received from a YouTube subscriber about sexualization of the female breast.
The over sexualization of the female breast in the US and some other countries is a tragedy. Just because a mother looks beautiful while feeding her baby does not mean that she is being sexual at all. Implied nudity even on the covers of magazines is widely acceptable as beautiful and doesn’t mean it’s meant to be sexualized. Breasts are made to feed babies. It is normal and healthy. There is no reason that a mommy can’t look beautiful while feeding her babies and it not be perverse. I think that every mother no matter what they look like they’re size race color age whatever the differences may be all women are beautiful to me and no woman should ever feel uncomfortable breast-feeding her baby anywhere at any time. It is my belief that only people that are uneducated about this topic that don’t know all the health benefits and that feel uncomfortable with natures God given gift of mothers milk are the ones who ruin the beauty and normality of breastfeeding. YES breastfeeding is beautiful. Nurturing a baby even by holding and bottle feeding is beautiful and any way a mother chooses to feed and care for her baby should be loved and respected and appreciated by everyone. Breastfeeding is not sexual and it is not abuse. It is healthy normal and most importantly decreases the risk of terminal childhood illnesses and reduces the risks of diabetes and some cancers in both mother and child so why would anyone not want that? #normalizebreastfeeding
