Dear Sharon & all
I feel the biggest obstacle in western society is the 'sexuality' issue.
Breasts are seen as primarily sexual objects, primarily of men's desires,
and are used to sell everything from cars to sports. I believe that
universal acceptance of b/f will occur more readily when the breast is
taken for granted as being 'for feeding our babies'! and anything else is
secondary.

Bye the bye - I've been asked to participate in a forum for the Royal
College of GP's to talk about working & b/f - I've got 10 minutes plus
question time to impart this information. Suggestions would be gratefully
received

warm regards
