Cover myself while I breastfeed? OK

That baby's face is hilarious. She's like "Yo, where did mum go?".

Mama!!! Peekaboo is between two and two thirty right after this little piggy, please don't mess with my schedule!

The Spanish translation doesn't make sense, seems to be made using the worst automated translator.

This is an old picture, so I'm assuming it was made when translations weren't fantastic yet.

Google translate says "If you need mom to feed you please cover thank you"

Google did some creative rewriting and killed half the joke. It actually says something like: "If you need mom[,] feed yourself you must. Covering! Thank you!"

The original spanglish also has a spelling and grammar mistake: cubieta -> 'cubierta' (fem. part. form of "cubrirse") which doesn't fit at all here.

Who are these people who simultaneously care about titties and also want to see less of them?

Covering sucks. Nursing is hot before you have to put a sweaty blanket on, babies want to make eye contact while they're nursing because it's about connection and not just nourishment and in my experience, once they're old enough to grab the cover, they'll just throw it off their face and expose your titty anyway.

As it turns out, having my tits out publicly didn't lead to complete societal collapse, no matter how much I hoped it would.

That's one lucky baby

Bro, creepy, what the fuck

Oh please don't get bent out over a tittie joke lol

Sexualising breastfeeding a baby is weird man

If that's how you perceive the comment then you have your own problems to deal with. Peace ✌️

How else is the comment supposed to be perceived?

He's jealous that the baby gets to suck on a titty. I don't understand why some people have that fetish.

So I got a few reports based on this.

In the interest of transparency - I'm leaving this up for now because it's not illegal:

  • Sexualising the baby would be considered rule-breaking and the comment removed, but that isn't the case here
  • Sexualising the act of breastfeeding (which some people think this comment does - but it's not unanimous) is perhaps in poor taste, but not illegal in itself.
  • Expressing a preference for, uh, certain physical traits is fine, although that may again be viewed as creepy by some people.

As mod, I'll remove posts that are illegal, discriminatory or harassing, and this post doesn't meet those criteria. Regardless, the downvotes here should be a signal that some people find this distasteful.

Feel free to upvote/downvote this post if you agree or disagree. The decision above was made based on my own evaluation, but I'll use the vote spread on this comment as an indicator of whether the community prefers a stricter policy.
