[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is amazing about this thread is nearly all the lactivists posting are basically proving OPs point.

(And since they will assume I am pushing formula or whatever, I nursed my kids 2-3 years each, but I agree that lactivists are mostly grown-up mean girls)[/quote]

All women who breastfeed are not lativists. Most of them don't care what you feed your own kids. Only the do-gooders want to educate others.

I suspect women are forced into being lativists at work because pumping is not supported by corporations. Also public nursing (even under a blanket) is often frowned upon.

I suspect it is the granola WOHMs who become lativists. I am a SAHM and I did not have to defend my choice to breastfeed. Infact my DH respected and supported me 100% at home.  Also the benefit of reducing the rate of breast cancer in moms who breastfeed is immense. I want the benefit for myself and my own. Why do I have to worry about other random people.

Most are reacting when bf moms claim that they don't care what others feed their kids. Can you please decide what offends you more? Lativists or bf moms who do not give a damn what you do to your kids.
