Posting photos of nursing babies online
| Wed, 09-05-2007 - 10:52am |
On another board, a poster has a long siggy that includes a slideshow of nursing babies from her playgroup. Another poster took offense at it and there has been quite the debate over the appropriateness of the siggy. I posted a message inviting people here to discuss that issue, and I hope that one of the posters from that particular playgroup comes here, at least so we can see what the siggy looks like. I'm having a hard time forming coherent thoughts today, LOL! So don't worry if I don't come back to debate the issue with you, I'm trying to get out of the office so I can go home & sleep.
As "Linda Richmond" (aka Mike Myers) from SNL would say, "talk amongst yourselves."

but I also don't like when people tell FF mothers that they are doing harm to their children, or are bad mothers.
I think nisupulla has a point.
>>Well, how can someone be supportive of freedom of speech, but NOT supportive of seeing free speech? Isn't that being contradictory?<<
Not at all. The essence of free speech is especially protecting the rights of those who say or do things you DON'T like. I'm pretty sure not one person said they thought the siggy should be taken down or disallowed. Free speech allowed people to post those siggies if they want, but it also allows people to say they don't like looking at it/hearing it.

So by your line of reasoning I could create a photo tag
