What an interesting, if not sophomoric topic!  :)  I had to finish
nursing our 18 month old before sitting down to respond to this post.
Please forgive me if what I have to say makes me sound like a
subordinate wife... I'm not.  ;~)

I would say that for me personally there are some sexual feelings about
breastfeeding.  Not between the baby and myself, but rather a sexual
sense of being.  I conceived these children with a man that I love.  I
carried these children that he fathered and labored long and hard to
bring them safely into the world.  I will continue to nourish them with
my body for as long as they need.  When I sit down to offer my baby a
breast, and gaze at her, I feel like a woman.  A whole and complete,
fertile, capable, woman.  I see the man I love in them and by caring for
them I am demonstrating my love for him.  On our youngest daughter's
first birthday, my husband took me aside and lovingly thanked me for
feeding his child.  Now that's sexy!

Just my own erotic .02 worth!
Erin
