Here’s a “Roller Derby girl breastfeeding” pic, and it’s an amazing picture. I know I’m a straight white guy and thus, by default, haven’t a clue, but the author of the blog post I found it on (click here if ya want to read more) says it way better than I ever could: 

The feminist campaign to allow women the full freedom to breastfeed is about all of us. It is not really about the choices of individual mothers and their babies. It is about women being considered as important..  as fucking normal as men. We are all made stronger when a woman can breastfeed, in public, as a member of her community, while getting shit done.  Because when that happens it says that women belong, it says that women’s bodies belong, it says that women are here.

YAY!

i think it is very important for women to be able to breastfeed in public, as a woman, i am in full support. but this one time i was in a DSW and there was a couple walking around with a child who had to have been 4 years old and her mother was breastfeeding her in public. i must admit, i was a little put off my the age of the child.
