I'll tell you why everyone is upset with the breastfeeding mom. It makes them feel guilty of their own failed parenting.

You ever hear of cutting the cord? This is just more freudian nonsense. Generations x and Y blaming mommy and daddy for everything, because they feel that everything bad that has ever happened to them is their parents fault. So now they are overcompensating for that belief with their own children. Its sick and Im ashamed to be from the same generation. More pseudo intellectual liberal nonsense.

I can say the same trusting powdered government regulated formula formula vs natural and organic.

That picture was done in a vile, crass & tacky manner

It actually took away the sincerity of breastfeeding

And, of course, a white woman was used by the destructive media.


That's what people don't like about the picture, Stupid

Really?// Yet full grown men want to suckel on those very same titties......dumb ass!

I have epilepsy and refuse to even father a child from fear of passing it to my children.

Boggles my mind that someone doesnt understand that breastfeeding should be done by a healthy mother not a chemical ladden mother.

Think!

Ohhhh youre a male. Then your opinion doesnt even count on this topic. Also if Time is that desperate for attention, they must change their name to, "Ill suck your d*#k for a dollar".

I think that was the intent!

The picture appears to be trying to project a sense of perversion upon the natural act of BF. Everyone knows that BF babies develope a very strong immune system, while fostering a lifetime bond between mother and child.

The drive behind the "shock" of this picture is to further degrade the bonding of mother/child, generate additional profits for baby formula manufactures, and to destroy the long term health of the child. One wonders if the baby formula makers and the drug companies are sleeping together. From cradle to grave, they own us.

Men must remember those teets belong to the baby first, then they are for our pleasure.

No, it has more to do with the ongoing extinction event being experienced by print journalism. It was for shock value to get publicity and increase circulation of TIME.

I was told I was allergic to my mother's milk. I had to drink soy milk growing up and I hated it. I hate my mother, too, but I'm sure it's for other reasons...

Child neglect-get real. Its a personal choice as to breastfeed or not.

I think that YOU have that psychological problem.Pull that stick out of your ass. I am a woman and just like a cow I have the udder to feed my offspring.why don't you have your breasts amputated cuz according to you they have no purpose! Womanas breasts are there for feeding their young - and we can't stop mens lust for them...

the only problem I have is that its on the cover of TIME mag. WTF.. women have breasts to feed their babies.....oh and you guys ---we don't have breasts for you...THEY ARE FOR OUR BABIES!!!!

I AM a breastfeeding mom and I am upset with that pic. It was irresponsible. I'm sure she is a loving, caring mom, but made a terrible choice.

+1000000

EXACTLY!!!!

I just had an orgasim reading your post.

Thank you!

Creating the ultimate momma's boys. That boy should be pouring his own drink into a cup. Poor thing.

I don't care how enraged the self-righteous breast feeders get, it is wrong to judge parenting skills by how mothers choose to feed their children.

I was bottle fed and, at 50, I'm as healthy as anyone and way more so than many.

My kids were bottle fed and they're all fine and well adjusted and were on all their baby food by 3 months -- a REAL doctor's feeding schedule. Not one of these "food will kill humans under the age of 1" freaks.

How you feed your child doesn't not make you any better or worse at parenting than anyone who chooses another way.

My daughter-in-law tried nursing and it didn't work out.
My grandkids are healthy and happy thank you very much and their mother is a great parent.

Get over yourselves. There is no perfect parent. And when the next parenting bandwagon fad comes along that woman in that picture will be labeled a weirdo.

I AGREE WITH YOU 100%. I breastfed my 2 children 12 mos. with time to ween (14 mos) I weened before they asked for the breast....
Altho I wonder why men are obseced with breasts and women are not...

Your entire line of thought and reasoning sounds EXACTLY the same as a homo when they are trying to justify their disgusting lifestyle.

You have a not shred of wisdom in your post.

Hey it's all cool. Like the woman aka mother in a thrust forward pose and in skinny clothes that emphasize her model-like body. She wants to be seen this way by billions of people, and it will keep her doing talk show rounds and probably land her a book contract with a ghost writer. She will love giving live demonstrations.

So what's with her male child on the mounting block? Is the symbology there that when he is old enough to stand mouth level with her tit, then he will be old enough to stop sucking on it and go to solid food? Won't his lunch box just be entertaining in the school cafeteria. What will happen when he wants to trade his lunch for another kid's ham & cheese?

I am quite certain this magazine issue will fly off the shelves and deep into the backpacks of millions of middle school boys. Maybe they will be able to guilt trip their moms into repatriating to them their just dues. No doubt a whole pile of men who lacked sufficient breast feeding will get off on it too. And then there are the women who...oh never mind....

I had a friend who breast fed her boy until he was six. Yeah, we'd all be sitting on the sofa, chatting drinking whatever, and her boy would come into the group, take her lap, or stand/sit/kneel - depending on his age at the time - and start fondling a very large breast, then pull her shirt down/up/open and dig in. Frankly there was a sensual payoff for her, too (if you think that is bogus, then you aren't fessing up or haven't bothered to research).

On one occasion when he was five, he actually grabbed my breast and started to pull my top out of his way. Bear in mind I had a child - a child who had been on solid food for quite a long time. I grabbed his arm, thrust it away and asked what he thought he was doing. He said he was going to eat. I told him to go find his mother and not try that with me again. He so fast snaked his hand grabbed my shirt and pulled and then thrust his face you know where. At five, this kid said, while in the aforementioned moment, "It's what you're for. Your tits are mine and I am hungry." I really grabbed this kid, since this was all too like a sexual assault experienced long before, took him to his mom, told her we needed to talk and she needed to wean her kid. We ceased being friends.

Turned out my kid had been coming to see me and witnessed this whole mess. Think I wasn't all kinds of offended and pissed? Think my kid didn't have something to deal with?

You idiots want to talk "natural"? Natural is watching nature. Baby mammals are nursed only until they are capable of masticating/swallowing/digesting their own food. Nature tells the nursing mothers when to start kicking the kids off the teat. Human mothers who don't observe Nature's pattern are getting and giving an unnatural (as in misplaced) payoff.

Can't even call this deal any kind of beastiality, because even beastss know better. Nope, this is some kind of perverted, twisted human thing. Perverted because it does not contribute to the survival of the offspring. Twisted because...well, figure it out for yourself. And just think of this image, message meme, signal now put in front of billions. What a tingle, huh?

It's all cool, right?

Ahhhhkkk,...I so hear what you're saying...ahhhh , and the next gen is going to blame us........go figure..lol

Oh, and to the OP: You.are.an.IDIOT.

Lets hope they have more brains than our generation ended up with.

That's BS.. something you've been told, with no fact at all.. the only time one may breast feed that old a child would be to keep it from starving to death in Africa, or some other 3rd world country.

No shit! Lets go back to the 1950's when kids were raised correctly. Enough of this liberal bullshit. If you want to pull your tit out when your kid is old enough to ask for it, you really think you are helping that child? How do you feel when you see a 4 year old walking around with a pacifier?
