I agree with Teresa. We do have to push the envelope to change the culture.
I do love the INFACT posters and find them very funny. I think they would be
a bit more acceptable, culturally, here in the south USA. I liked "it's okay
to suck up to the boss" and "fast food outlets."  I also liked that t-shirt
or sweatshirt of old "I did it on an elevator" etc about where you had bf. I
think that kind of humorous stuff works great. Because normal newborn bf is
not very acceptable here yet, we have to start closer to that time frame to
push the envelope. Bf is "gross" to many women. Even 6 mos of bf is
long-term here.
