I\'m Summer, a mouthy, sarcastic bitch. I\'m passionate about natural birth, long term breastfeeding, and living naturally. I curse too much, love tattoos, and will some day be crushed to death by my book collection. I homeschool, dream of gardening, and swing to the left. 
Let My Boobs Be Free!
I love boobs. I love my boobs, I love your boobs, I think all boobs should be loved and cared for and treated with respect. And do you know what is being respectful of the awesomeness of boobs? Not telling women they have to hide away somewhere for having boobs. Or, more specifically, for using their boobs as intended. And no, I’m not talking about selling beer and cars.
This morning Cate retweeted a few of the idiots that have nothing better to do with their time than complain about a woman breastfeeding somewhere. In the mall, at the doctor’s office, at a ballgame, it doesn’t matter. There will always be someone out there disrespecting the boobs. And since I’m a lover of women being able to use their boobs as they see fit I had a little rant.
Why do idiots think the rest of the world should step in line with what they personally want to see?
I mean, I don’t wanna see the teenager with the massive cleavage at the grocery store, but I turn my head and move on. Free country and all.
So if you don’t want to see the mom breastfeeding at the mall, turn your head and walk on. No one is guaranteed the right to not be offended
It’s called growing the fuck up and acting like an adult, instead of an entitled spoiled brat who still needs mommy to wipe your ass for you
Oh yes, I went there. Because seriously, I’m sick of the blowhards. No, you don’t have the right to not be offended. If that were the case your ass would be locked up at home without internet access so the rest of us don’t have to deal with you. No, it isn’t “nasty” or dirty or any of the other bullshit things you say. It’s perfectly fucking normal. More normal than pouring a man-made powder into a plastic container and sticking a rubber nipple on the top.
And I swear to gods, if you make one remark about breastfeeding being natural just like shitting I will personally come to your house and take a crap in your cereal bowl. And you’d probably eat it because you’re too stupid to tell the difference between a waste product and food.
If you want to spend your days doing the “OMG that woman is using her boobs!” crap, fine. But don’t act surprised when I reply “OMG you’re an idiot!”. Because really, you are.
Suck it.

Well, I pull my boobs out where ever, when ever- don’t care who you are, when I need to nurse, and I don’t use a blanket either. offensive was a 1 month old baby crying in his dirty stroller yesterday with some nasty plasitc grossness of a bottle that fell out of his mouth, I felt bad for him so put it back in his mouth
Yup! Well said.
I love it!

That’s the way to tell it like it is!!
rock on Summer!
I think I disagree ever so slightly. People have a right to be offended but I have a right to not give a shit that they are.
People, and when I say people I mean perverted man-whores, will sexualize any part of a woman’s body. Because some horse-tooth jack-ass get excited looking at my feet does that mean I should not wear flip-flops? No high heels? Even combat boots will help him get his rocks off- maybe steel-toe boots so I can kick him….well you know where.
There breasts, everyone has them. Get over it.
I love this! I haven’t nursed in 4 years now (kiddo is 6 1/2), but I still think it is a beautiful thing.
Right on, sister! By the way, is that YOUR boob in that photo? It’s mighty pretty, I must say! I don’t know why anyone would complain about seeing it in public.
Slade, you’re going to make me blush. My boob only looks pretty from that angle, I assure you. LOL
Suck it – HAH!
Well, milk and crap are a little similar, in that women should be discreetly breastfeeding in the bathroom, out of sight of onlookers. Seriously, I don’t eat food in the bathroom; why should my child? Did you know that every time you flush a toilet, water droplets are expelled from the bowl into the air carrying E-coli with them? (See this page for the proof: http://serendip.brynmawr.edu/exchange/node/1839) Poop with your milk, anyone?
