Hooray for you in Illinois!!!!!
I have recently been asked by several different women whether it is legal
here in Florida to b/f in public. Of course I reply that not only is it
legal to b/f in public, it is illegal to ask the mother to stop b/f.
It has been several years since our law was passed. I think that we need to
refresh people's memories!
