I got a real laugh out of Kathy's post and the guy who had breasts ruined
for him. Talk about promoting breastfeeding. Lets get some subliminal
eductaion out there and flash pictures of breastfeeding women, too fast for
the eye to see consciously, while the footy is on. Imagine how many breasts
could be 'ruined' and breastfeeding relationships made?

"And as a purely cultural belief, it CAN BE
CHANGED.  And it really truly doesn't take all that much to convince people
that breasts are primarily for feeding children -- it takes very little
exposure to women breastfeeding a baby, or even *slides* of women
breastfeeding children, or videotapes, for boys/men to get used to the idea
that that's what they're for, and for their perceptions to be forever
changed in favor of breastfeeding. I've been doing it for years in my
college classes, and I often hear back from male students years later about
how their wife is breastfeeding their baby, thanks in part to my exposing
them to the idea and teaching them about how important breastfeeding is to
their child's development.  Only one male student has ever complained in
class that I "ruined breasts for him" by showing him 100 slides of
breastfeeding mothers and children."
