public breast feeding is cool

I'm totally for public breast feeding, as I feel that there's nothing offensive about it, the young tikes gotta eat, ya know? To placate some people's absurd sensibilities, is it possible to design some type of shirt, kind of like a tent for the baby to be under while nursing, so as not to expose any breast?

Breast defense - Female sports fans battle for right to nurse at stadiums

Women in favor of public breastfeeding are demanding the right the nurse their infants in the stands at sports arenas, but say they feel pressured to leave their pricey seats and feed their babies in bathrooms or first aid stations.

``They've paid for their seat, they have the right to be in that seat, so they have the right to breastfeed their baby there – that's our understanding of the law,'' said Lezlie Densmore of La Leche League in Massachusetts. None of the area's three major sports venues have written policies on breastfeeding, creating confusion among mothers over what is allowed.


# At Gillette Stadium, a spokesman said women can nurse anywhere. But a security official told a Herald reporter inquiring about the policy that mothers must breastfeed in designated areas.

# At Fenway, both a fan service representative and a security official said if a fan finds a nursing mother ``offensive'' it is up to park security to decide whether the mother must go to a more discreet area.

# At TD Banknorth Garden, public nursing is handled on a ``case-by-case basis,'' said spokeswoman Courtney McIlhenny.
