Too depressing, and very very stupid....I know she got hate mail after the
piece in the Gdn in May, and I know the editor at the  women's page at the
Gdn thought there was a breastfeeding Mafia (and heavens, I do know there
are some extraordinary people who indulge in abuse when they disagree with
someone). But this is just callous rubbish.

What do we do?

To point out in print just how rubbishy it is, is to somehow align oneself
with the breastfeeding Mafia in many people's eyes,  or to be part of the
society which tells  women what to do with their lives and bodies....

Yet it needs a response...I think.
