Why the look Fabio?
Why, even IF Katie had thought that about the video, is she not allowed her own opinion?

The debate has already kicked off elsewhere Katie.
But if this video is watched by someone who then has new insight in to breastfeeding, then that is a good thing.
And you are right, Kiskadee, the whole breast is breast mantra is overused and does nothing to educate people on breastfeeding.
Isn't Karleen Gribble a great name!!!

She looks nothing like I, in my narrow little mind, would expect a Karleen Gribble to look like.

Yes she's allowed an opinion.
I thought it was a bit rude to just post 'yawn'.

it is in AIBU, Katie. which is why the vid is also posted here.

so many, many people on the thread keep saying things like 'everyone knows that breast is best' and "the mw's kept ramming it down my throat that BIB, yadda, yadda... and I [sigh] every time I read it.
