The piece doesn’t use the “natural function” argument. That said, most restaurants won’t allow you to consume food in their establishment that you didn’t purchase there, and lots of places forbid eating and drinking. I presume those would also be acceptably off-limits to breastfeeding?
Sorry, I was just getting ahead of the curve- the “natural function” thing is usually where the public breast feeding zealots go first in discussions. It’s no giant deal for me (mainly, I guess, because my possession of testicles precludes me from breastfeeding), but most of the mainstream chics I know have no real interest in busting out a titty in public, where every 6-toothed redneck walking by can ogle the “natural beauty of a mother feeding her child as it’s been done for millennia…” That’s where they go next in the discussion, usually.

Breastfeeding in public is no biggie with me, although I’d rather the women try to go somewhere private to do so for their own sake. There’s plenty of perverts out there nowadays (and in this case, people with cameras who aren’t shy of taking pictures of you).

A woman breast-fed her child at the table next to mine during lunch just yesterday. After noticing, I respected her privacy after that. That is what adults do. Seems to me we need a few more adults and a few less busy bodies in this country. In fact, I appreciated the fact that she stopped the child’s crying.

Pooping is a natural function, too, but I don’t do it in public. At least I try not to…

I guess we’ll have to feed our 2 month old a cheeseburger instead of breastfeeding him at McDonald’s.
You should probably avoid McDonald’s in general.

At least throw a blanket over it.

It’s simply about manners and consideration for others. Just another liberal celeb shouting “look at me push the envelope, I’m edgy!”. Get lost.

Glad I wasn’t there. I would have had to ask her if I could use the one that wasn’t currently occupied.
