Is it controversial that Angelina Jolie is shown breastfeeding on the new cover of W Magazine? Absolutely not!!! Women's breasts were created for nourishing our children, NOT as sexual objects. In many other cultures separate from North America, women don't even give NIPing (Nursing in Public) a second thought. As an advocate for women's options in maternity care, birth and parenting and as a doula, I just shake my head at the ridiculous ideas of modern society. For goodness sake, Ty Pennington is hawking formula for Similac now?! http://similacsimplepac.com/SimplePac-design Extreme Makeover: Formula Edition???? Women have a right to feed their children whenever, wherever. And they have a right to accurate information and the positive healthy and realistic portrayal of feeding choices in the media and in the general public.
