Chestfeeding

[ALoadOfTwaddle]

Just came across this term in a WhatsApp group I'm on. Apparently, it's a more inclusive word for breastfeeding.

So, I get the argument that if you're a woman who prefers to not be recognised as such, you may prefer not to be associated with words linked to women. But... Men have breasts too. Small and underdeveloped, but breasts. So what's wrong with calling it breastfeeding?

This.

"What's with the use of the word feminine?"

Why shouldn't we use the word feminine to describe something that is the sole province of females? So much wrong with trying to remove our language. Why are you complicit in it?

Sorry people. Just saw what I did there, reactivating an old thread. In my defence it was in active!
