Many body parts have dual functions. Hands can be used to caress someone or type on a keyboard, as an example. So why do some people have trouble accepting the fact that breasts can be both sexy (like practically any other body part) as well as nursing instruments?

Have any argument you want about breastfeeding. However, I can also say that urinating is so natural. There are private places I could go to do that, but man if I gota go, I gota go! Right? Genitals have dual functions. They can be sexy, and they are also used as a health function. It couldn't be a health hazard if you're letting go in a sewer or something and not on ground where someone else can walk. The difference is? And seriously, do you really think the Taco Bell dining room or neighborhood park is germless enough to give your baby a healthy meal? Sick.
I feel the same about breastfeeding in public, than I feel about people changing their children's diaper in public. You can do something natural and be discrete about it.
Besides, people in this world are so messed up in the head, that I'm sure there is a pedophile on every corner. Why would you want to breastfeed in public when there could be some sicko watching and getting turned on by that?
I'm not offended by that mag cover though. Nothing real offensive about it. I've seen worse on other magazines sold in like CVS or something.
