Adults drinking breastmilk

141 replies

A discussion on another forum (not a parenting forum, may I add)has made me think-me and my friend both made breastmilk cocktails for our DPs and friends to taste, and just thought of it as a cool thing our bodies could do. Apparently we are weird. Are we?

I also used to squirt milk at people who annoyed me. It was funny

Why are people so scared of breastmilk?

NOT FUNNY FOR THE PEOPLE .
They were not scared, just a bit grossed out, and yes, you are weird.

But you know that, and probably like it

suwoo · 06/06/2009 22:06

What else was in the breast milk cocktail? I might have tried it, had it contined vodka

StealthPolarBear · 06/06/2009 22:06

you used to squirt milk at people who annoyed you? Literally unhook bra, point and squeeze>? Or do you mean you made sure they were in the firing line when your LO came off?

TrinityRhino · 06/06/2009 22:07

not weird really
I squirt people who annoy me too

everyone thinks that drinking COW breastmilk is normal but human breastmilk OH Noooooooo

tsk

lilymolly · 06/06/2009 22:09

The only person I squirted breastmilk on, was my newborn son (by accident) and my 3 year old dd as a bit of joke one day when I was in the bath and it came squirting out

DP has tried the taste, but only a drop.

Wonderstuff · 06/06/2009 22:09

LOL I see how far mine sqirts in the bath ON MY OWN but would never squirt at someone I do find it odd that people are totally fine with cows milk but wierd about breast milk

bigted · 06/06/2009 22:10

last time I looked there were no cartons of breast milk in ASDA.
so, yes, weird

littlelamb · 06/06/2009 22:10

I'd be a bit pissed off if a cow squirted at me to thought tbh
why would you do that??

littlelamb · 06/06/2009 22:10

too though

StealthPolarBear · 06/06/2009 22:12

yes, I agree - was pleasantly surprised when I was moaning to DH about all the BM I was going to waste when expressing at a wedding (couldn't be bothered with sterilising / refridgerating) and he said very matter-of-factly he'd have it in his tea as it would be much nicer than the UHT things. Made me question why I thought adults drinking it was an odd thing to do - obviously it's unconventional and not necessary in most situations but there's nothing actually wrong with it!

donnie · 06/06/2009 22:16

yes, extremely weird. But you knew that already, non? anyone who squirts bm at people who annoy them is exceptionally weird. WTF would you do that for? would you regard it as acceptable for a man to ejaculate on people who annoyed them?

StealthPolarBear · 06/06/2009 22:17

errr no but I'd MUCH rather be squirted with milk from a cow than have a bull ejaculate on me too! The two aren't really comparable

bigted · 06/06/2009 22:17

donnie

TrinityRhino · 06/06/2009 22:17

dont be so bloody silly donnie
not the same thing at all

small minded people do my head in

StealthPolarBear · 06/06/2009 22:18

bit worrying also that my example was going to use the same animal for both! Think I need to resit primary school

bigted · 06/06/2009 22:19

trinity in what way is it SO different?

Squirting BM at someone who annoys you is def inappropriate and weird

donnie · 06/06/2009 22:20

well actually they are entirely comparable as a 'cool thing our bodies can do' - to quote the OP. Natural substances and all that.

Or howabout pissing , shitting or spitting on people who annoy us? after all that's a cool thing our bodies can do isn't it? what do you think about it Lissyglitter? if you squirted your bm at some bloke who annoyed you , would it then be ok for him to ejaculate on you?

bigted · 06/06/2009 22:20

Lissy did your friends know there was bm in the "cocktails" ?

StealthPolarBear · 06/06/2009 22:21

Did either of you see my cow / bull example?
Would they really make you feel the same way?

TrinityRhino · 06/06/2009 22:21

only my mates in a jokey way

sperm and breastmilk are two completely different things

breastmilk is a nourishing FOOD

get with it

littlelamb · 06/06/2009 22:21

Exactly. You wouldn't spit on someone (at least I hope you wouldn't )

fishie · 06/06/2009 22:21

squirting anything is not very nice.

suggesting that bm is weird because asda doesn't stock it is downright bizarre.

StealthPolarBear · 06/06/2009 22:22

only if it was some stranger who ejaculated on me - then he'd deserve it!

bigted · 06/06/2009 22:22

donnie I completely agree but suspect OP iS A TROLL

TrinityRhino · 06/06/2009 22:22

there is no difference in squirting bm or flicking cows milk at someone

you need the right moment, need it to be a friend and need to know they aren't so fuckinf stupid as some people
