Mother claims cafe owner branded her 'disgusting woman' for breastfeeding in public
Outrageous, what are we, living in Victorian times? It’s a perfectly natural thing, I can’t believe this sort of thing still happens in this day and age.
But then I read.on.
The mother, who has volunteered for a breast feeding support group for five years,
Yes she’s a member of an Entitled group, a “Say what you will, I am entitled to do whatever I want, its the law, fuck you and your customers, if I want to whap a tit out in a cafe at 10:30am deal with it you squares. it’s my right innit” group.
.
At least the paper printed this bit - a coded message to its readers, perhaps?
ReplyDeletePerhaps. She does get a fair old shoeing in the comments
ReplyDelete"'I am traumatised by what happened."
ReplyDeleteOf course she is, and she intends to sue. How predictable.
"'She didn't do it in a dignified way. She didn't cover herself up in anyway and pulled her chair right round so that she was in front of everybody. She was obviously an exhibitionist."
LOL! Not an exhibitionaist I imagine, rather as you say Pavlov, one of the entitled. Sounds like she was trying to push it until someone spoke up so she would have an excuse to moan and wail.
I have thought about whether that's offensive or not, even before PCism. While maybe most mothers would find a quiet place, if they did do it, what the hell - it's nature, isn't it?
ReplyDelete@James You are right it is perfectly natural, I don't have a problem with it.
ReplyDeleteHowever would I like it shoved in my face while I'm having a cup of tea and a poached egg? Probably not.
I suppose I still cling to old fashioned ideas of decorum and discresion. Sadly out of date in these modern times it seems.
Thing is there's a lot a bodily functions that are how'd you say er.. "Perfectly natural", like passing wind after a night on the lash of drinking 15 pints of olde scrutock scrumpy along with a half gallon jar of pickled eggs.
ReplyDeleteDrop one of those and it could clear a slaughter house and has the added bonus of blistering the paintwork.
Wonder how "Perfectly natural" she'd find one of those whilst tucking into her spam and beans?
It's true, how would this breast-feeder have liked it if I'd decided to take a nice sloppy dump at the next table?
ReplyDelete@Blue & Budvar
ReplyDeleteI'm sure she wouldn't like it at all. But the diffrence is you dont have the 'RIGHT' to do it enshrined in law which makes any condemnation of the act a breach of those 'RIGHTS'
She's been waiting 5 years for this moment.
Which law states that I can't have a shit in the vicinity of this silly b^tch?
ReplyDelete@Blue: What I am saying is you can lay a cable right next to her if you want. She is then perfectly OK to tell you it's disgusting and she'd rather you'd do it elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteHowever she is able to hoik out a milky bap in front of you and feed little Cressida or whatever whilst you are eating your eggs and bacon and you a not allowed to mutter a single sylable against it.
