Check out this month's issue of People magazine.  There is an article about
the inventor of the My Brest Friend pillow.  What is weird about this
article (beyond the fact that it was even in the magazine) is that there is
a full page color photograph of the inventor sitting among a crowd of women
wearing his pillow--and not one of them is breastfeeding!  A magazine that
survives by printing pictures of nearly naked celebs can't print a picture
of a woman feeding her child?  And they spell breastfeeding "breast-feeding"
(to follow a recent thread).  The real kicker was at the end--the inventor
is quoted saying something along the lines of (not an exact quote), "fathers
can use it too to give their babies a bottle of formula."  He explicitly
says formula, not feed the baby or some other term to imply feeding.

I don't know if it is worth a letter to People magazine, but...

sitting around!!!)
