I find it very saddening that such a natural act has been tainted by some peoples inability to seperate their sexual reactions and unrestrained fantasys from the reality of a breast being used for the purpose it evolved for in the first place.

To ask a woman was is discreetly breast feeding to cover up with what amounts to a flag proclaiming " look at me I'm breast feeding and ashamed" is the height of crassness in my opinion and deserves all the protests and publicity it has garnered.
