You are right.  I think that quote is sick.  I haven't seen a baby yet that cared if his mother's breasts were beautiful or saggy and baggy. 
 
Although, I did think the pictures were hilarious in themselves.  Haven't you had a baby try to root and latch on you?  I once was holding a baby while I was working in the NICU and got distracted.  The little bugger rooted and latched through my scrubs and bra!  
Imagine my surprise.  
I guess, "Any port in a storm."

Subject: Statue latching photo!


The actual quote above the baby (6-9 months old) latching on to a statue on the site mentioned at the end of the last post is this: 
"That there is a very natural attraction and inborn appreciation of a beautiful chest can be seen in the following pictures." 
 
I take this as highly offensive! A baby does not see the breasts as "beautiful" and is not "attracted" to them. For a plastic surgeon specializing in breasts to put something like that on their site is an outrage, in my opinion.
