Like I said, you're out of your fucking mind.

Agreed. If women had the same sexual freedom as men, a lot of problems would be solved. There'd be no "buyer's remorse", at least not in the sense of "feeling like a slut". (True story: the first time I ever had casual sex —and I was drunk— I had some brief moments of thinking I'd been taken advantage of. I wasn't. I…
I'M ridiculous?
"Ordinary people know the vast majority of women crying rape on campus are actually expressing buyer's remorse from alcohol-fueled promiscuous behavior involving murky consent on both sides. It's true. It's their get-out-of-guilt-free card"
There's a Starbucks I often go to on the way to work and for the last couple of weeks, every time I've gone in for my coffee, I've seen a young woman sitting at the same seat, having a coffee and reading...and there's these two tiny little baby feet sticking out from under a scarf!
It's so sweet and every time I see…
It's a sad, sad excuse for a city. It combines all the worst qualities of big and small cities. It has none of the charm of a small city or town and none of the cool things offered by a large one. Utterly pathetic place.
I'm sorry, what am I doing that is inconsiderate?
You are totally bullshitting on the lactose thing. Come on. I can't drink lactose either but that has nothing to do with women breastfeeding at the same Starbucks I'm at. Do you really think a woman breastfeeding her baby is somehow going to result in you ingesting…
So, you think your desire not to see a woman breastfeed her child is the same as a child's deadly peanut allergy? You think they're worthy of the same consideration?
One is about preventing death; the other is about indulging some asshole's problem with seeing a breast when it's not for his titillation.
If you haven't seen many people popping pimples and doing a hundred other disgusting things, you're either incredibly lucky or don't get out much. Most people actually don't have much consideration for others.
None of this is remotely relevant in any case, because breast feeding is not like shitting or popping…
Well, they are human beings, after all.
If you were sitting in the same cafe as me popping your pimples, I'd think it's gross and I'd look away. If you came up to me, stuck your face next to mine and popped your pimples right onto my face, well that would probably be assault.
I'm sorry, but do you think this woman was breastfeeding ON someone? She was…
That's funny, because YOU'RE not being respectful of your fellow human being either.
"It"? You mean the child?
Hey, I live in a major city too. I don't like the sound of babies crying. (Nothing is as bad as tourists though). But I suck it up.
Also, you didn't answer my questions.
No, it's not rude. And she's not imposing anything on you, or anyone.
The world doesn't revolve around you.
And again, she's not doing this because she wants to. She probably doesn't want to. It's about her kid needing to eat.
1. It doesn't matter what you want to see. Or what anyone wants to see. I don't want to see ugly men, but I live with it because I have no choice. Why does your desire not to see something you don't want to see trump a helpless infant's right to eat? It doesn't.
2. There might not have been a corner. There might not…
I agree. But it's still the Patriarchy.
Okay, I'll bite. So women (I assume you mean women) are supposed to not leave the house till their children are no longer annoying. (So, like until their kids are thirty). So I suppose you're then totally cool with women who have children not working and not making any money and being completely financially supported…
Fuck off.
It's definitely not associated with Catholicism in places like Italy and Mexico, as mentioned above, or much of Latin America, where women breast feed literally everywhere and without all the cover-up stuff that women here use.
Not that Catholicism (or any religion) is so kind to women, but in this respect, I wouldn't…
Yeah, it's interesting. For instance, I have some men in my life (don't ask why) who are deeply misogynistic. Likely because they were raised in very patriarchal cultures. However, in those same places, which are also very religious, they were exposed to breast feeding from an early age and saw it literally…
