Re: Women have a choice

Also, here is a report on the same story, with a different slant...

Guardian

Quote:
The study, launched by Sheffield University, will involve 130 mothers in Yorkshire and Derbyshire, in communities where, the researchers say, breastfeeding is in effect stigmatised.

"A woman from a young, white low-income area will often tell you it is embarrassing to breastfeed in public or even in her own home. We know that is the community norm," said Mary Renfrew, professor of mother and infant health at Dundee University, who is advising the project.

"Women have even told us it is immoral because breasts have been very sexualised. They think they might be open to the gaze of people who think they are doing something wrong."
