I don't shop there, although I hear some of their underwear is comfortable.
But, lets be real here, they are not about seeing breasts as organs to feed
babies.  But I agree that a boycott would only be reactive, and only
effective if the organization had an official policy not to allow
breastfeeding.  If that were a reason to boycott, I'd have to boycott my own
place of work (where I got a hysterical call one time from a receptionist
about an "older" woman who was actually breastfeeding in our waiting area -
its an OB clinic!).  We responded with education.
