this disgusts me. What kind of mother would allow her baby to be used as a prop for sexual deviants? How much lower can a man sink into depravity. What sane woman would allow this to happen to her baby?

Faith. I think many of these women have been gaslit by their partners and often his psychologist to accept the partner has a “gendered soul”. 🙄. I can imagine some of these women are living in a family violence relationship- at least psychological & potentially sexual - abuse.

Yes, absolutely and remembering that such women have had years of gas-lighting by their narcissistic partners and themselves don't have a firm grip on reality nor the energy to fight being ganged up on, in those circumstances.

They get trapped. The TiM threatens suicide and blames her for not being supportive .

Women need lessons in how not to be taken in by men's pleading for understanding and acceptance of their bad behaviour.

Thanks Lucy, superb piece. Anyone who experiments on a baby to feed a fetish and anyone who supports it, is beneath contempt.

Great post ,Lucy ,even if it's infuriating !! I will NEVER understand how ANY woman can support this predators rights movement ,and it's truly shocking to see a supposed " mother to mother " breastfeeding support group like llla leche league actively encouraging this !! It's child abuse ,plain and simple and they are a disgrace !! God help the innocent babies being subjected to this horror. Thanks ,Lucy x

I’ve been waiting for this! If this won’t convince the unbelieving, don’t know what will.

13 years ago I adminned bf support groups and we constantly had weird men trying to join. We helped so many women to breastfeed their babies, in a culture where it isn’t the norm. How many women are going to be rightly put off by the centring of men? And how many babies will end up not being breastfed because of this nonsense? LLL are a fucking atrocity.

I spoke up on this seven or eight years ago. Everyone in the group criticized me and said that it would be better for the baby to have milk then to starve or have nutritional deficiencies. Hormonally it is very concerning.

I remember being in a baby wearing group and these two very liberal women sort of took over and dominated the group and started demanding that we all use inclusive language. At first, I was so confused. It didn’t make sense why we weren’t allowed to say mother anymore. It still doesn’t make sense. We are mothers.

Also, that one person who says that breast-feeding validated their womanhood. Nothing can validate your womanhood, other than being a woman. Being a woman is not a body. It is not an act. Being a woman is an energy. You cannot engineer that, you cannot purchase it, you cannot mimic it. Women don’t need their womanhood validated.

Actually it is men who need rites of passage and validation from other men. While women have build in rites of passage. So here is a person projecting manhood onto womanhood while mimicking woman’s rites of passage and calling it validating.

I am woman in my blood, in my dna.

That is all.

Ergghh vom. Thanks for this LL I had to stop at menstruation fetish and hurl. Will come back and finish later. LLL is definitely worse than the Australian Breastfeeding Association in encouraging this craaaaazy. Remember Princess Mommy. I always think of the Breast Pump Hire Officers as I was one for ages. Imagine having one of these men over to your house to pick up a BP for hire. 😳😱

If the kids end up autistic, what are the odds they blame vac instead of malnutrition?
