NEW YORK - "I was SHOCKED to see a giant breast on the cover of your magazine," one person wrote. " I immediately turned the magazine face down," wrote another. "Gross," said a third.These readers weren't complaining about a ******ly explicit cover, but rather one of a baby nursing, on a wholesome parenting magazine — yet another sign that Americans are squeamish over the sight of a nursing breast, even as breast-feeding itself gains greater support from the government and medical community.
Babytalk is a free magazine whose readership is overwhelmingly mothers of babies. Yet in a poll of more than 4,000 readers, a quarter of responses to the cover were negative, calling the photo — a baby and part of a woman's breast, in profile — inappropriate.

the name of the magazine is BABY TALK and breast feeding is a normal everyday occurance for mothers with babies I don't see a problem.

Listen, I love ****s too - but my buddy's wife thinks there is nothing wrong with plopping her **** out in a restaurant and feeding her baby.

I've got a problem with that though.

Doesn't breastfeeding reduce the risk of breast cancer? I heard that somewhere, maybe just an old wives' tale.

I don't have problems with breast on the magazine cover, but seeing that in real is quite different matter to mee, so if you are nursing mom go to some private area or move into place noone would need to stare at you. I hate when the only thing I can put eye on is someones brest actualy its not about brests feeding that is disgusting or whatever but the force that forces me too look in that direction, same goes for nose picking, wardrobe malfunctions, and all that kind of things ...

Its not really an opinion; its a fact - do you think back in the day stone aged mother dearest breast fed in a special area? Or used a bottle in public so she wouldn't offend anyone? ;)

Like Smoking?! Passive smoking is HARMFUL to your health - smoking a drug that has known and proven links to cancer is slightly different to a baby getting milk from its mum's teat O.o it can't hurt you if you're nearby...


Pissing and ****ting on the pavement is un-hygenic and a danger to your health. Quite different.

An outrage because of this cover? I can see more nudity at the local pizza parlor! And a mother feeding her child is like the most natural thing ever. Surely debateable wheter you really want to do it in public but on the cover of a magazine for parents? Pleaaaaase.

I sure hope biology books do not include naked people. Might offend someone ;) ;)

Holy crap that kid sucking on the left breast looks a bit old. I don't know what the rule of thumb is on breast feeding and ages, but I've gotta imagine that if your kid is walking around in jeans and sneakers, he's too old to be breast feeding.

No need to show everyone your breasts in a puplic place, and if you have to do it atleast try to cover it up a bit.

It could be my Swedish genes kicking in but... what's the big deal of nursing in public? Most of you were breast fed.
Yesterday, I went to Burger King and there was a mom nursing. I didn't care. The kid was hungry and making noise. Any sane mom would feed their baby when it cries for it.
