This is a great article that details how breastfeeding is interpreted using
bottle feeding attitudes and practices.  It shows how what we "know" about
bottle feeding can interfere with what "works" for breastfeeding.

Subject: Re: trouble with breastfeeding because of bottles

... I'm really looking for something that I can easily cite for a
paper describing just what you noticed with the boys! ie children will learn
breastfeeding and transfer those skills to adulthood when breastfeeding is
what they see and know and will tranfer bottle feeding skills from childhood
to adulthood when that is what they see and know.
