Can
> anyone on the list please explain just how the breasts get "stripped"?>

<I have *no* clue.  This is about the 3rd time I have heard this this
past year.  I would love a medical explanation of how one strips a
breast (other than undressing.)>

Actually, isn't that what we want to happen, as in, with a good latch,
the baby's tongue is far away from the nipple, stripping the lactiferous
sinuses beneath the areolar part of the breast?
