Personally, it wouldn't upset or offend me either way, and I don't even recall ever witnessing it being done anyway. The only thing I took exception to was the earlier comment where someone defended it by saying it was either that or listen to a screaming kid, which is bullshit.

But it is awkward, and I can't for the life of understand why a woman would even want to do it in public in the first place.

I will say this, it was a one of a kind trip. :)

you mean 'two of a kind'?!?

A-THANK YOU!

:p

ROFL

The comment about a screaming child was referring to an infant being on an airplane, the best combatant is feeding the child. One can not use the argument about putting the milk in a bottle either, the milk will only last so long without being kept cold, and an infant will not drink cold milk.

No woman wants to breast feed their baby in public, it is an evil necessity. Okay, maybe the really big attention whores do. :)

:LOL:LMAO:LOL:LMAO:LOL:LMAO Most excellent.

I guess it could have been a much worse flight. I could have had Jimmy the jerkaholic across from me, rubbing one out.

ROFL That reminds of that story from a couple years ago where the lady fell asleep on a flight and woke up with some perv spooning her and had splooge on her clothes. Now THAT would be a bad flight.

I don't have a problem with boobies or women feeding their kids. I had an aunt who breast fed her 3 kids until they lost their baby toofers - in front of everybody.

Dude...

You should have ordered a White Russian and asked her for some milk.

LMAO

Seriously, it's all about nature. Who gives a ****?

You kill any four legged or gilled creature you choose, but the sight of a baby's mouth on a nipple freaks you out?

:eek:

Lighten up, Compadre. And next time, report on those nipples!

Yeah no shit. If you wake up and you're covered in DNA, that WOULD be a VERY bad day.

D-Man, I'm not going to lose any rest over the "encounter," or run over and get numerous treatments at the local shrink. It's all good, I just wanted to see what the pulse was on the subject and see if anyone else had run into dueling milk cannons on a cross country flight. I must admit, it sparked more of a debate than I projected.

I tried apologizing to her but she wouldn't accept it.

Still, though, she took it a lot better than that dude next to me on the Greyhound bus a few weeks later. :shrug:

i'm guessing that most of the people that have a problem with this don't have kids.

Bringing infants into movie theaters is just a bad idea all around. The baby doesn't get a thing out of it and the sound levels generally set them to screaming. Travel, however, is a different story. It's not fair to inisist that babies can't go on flights. Families visit and babies should not be excluded, nor should a breast feeding mother be forced to bottle feed in public, on a plane or not. I don't enjoy hearing a baby scream on a flight, but I only get pissed off when some undisciplined kid between 3 and 6 screams his or her head off and the parents don't do a thing to make the kid shut up.

When I was that age, my mother made it very clear to me that when I was on an airplane, I had to act like I did in church: no screaming and carrying on and no kicking the seat in front of me. Parents today just don't understand or care that the rest of us do not find their horrid brat to be cute nor can we block out his or her shrieks. I have seen kids standing in their seats and just shrieking at the passengers behind them for entertainment and the parent acts oblivious to it. That makes me wish for sudden, violent turbulence...
