And About the Self-Righteous Breastfeeding Folks
I can't stand the obnoxious mothers who compete with others over milk production and duration of breastfeeding. This is about as interesting to me as girls sitting around comparing how little they ate that week or how many crunches they did every morning. Nasty, toxic.
So it is nice to know that the government is getting in on the act by creating a lot of guilt-inducing advertisements about the terrible disservice women do to their children's health if they choose formula over breastfeeding. You know what I'm talking about. It's the New York Times's "most emailed" article of the day: Breast-Feed or Else.
I could say more, but I think Lori Leibovich, Indiebride founder, says it much better in her entry on Salon this evening.
And I'll just drop in this little piece from Slate that argues with the New York Times.
