I might.
Doh. "Three and half years breastfeeding" mis-read as 3 1/2 y.o. child. My bad. Article does in fact say the child was 1yo.
Think that's irrelevant tbh. The library might have several copies of "50 Shades of Grey" but that doesn't mean I can perform sadomasochistic sex acts there
Although I've never tried it, so could be wrong.

Breastfeeding isn't a sex act.
I've been to the V&A a few times and it's a corridor full of naked statues and they even had an exhibition on bras through the ages in one of the sections
Couldn't see the appeal of that to be honest.
I went for the Pink Floyd exhibition.

Beat me to it sir....
I know. I was just saying that a statue of a naked woman is not the same as a naked woman; the contents of the museum aren't an invitation in themselves to either get naked or to breastfeed. It's not connected; not relevant.

This too.
If she can breastfeed in public why am I not allowed to take a dump in public? cmon brahs lets be fair here.
I wonder if a trans woman did it... with a life-sized child doll... if she would have the same protection under law? Heck, if she's a real woman and she needs to feed her "baby"... OK I've taken this too far.
Because one action is completely illegal and the other is not...
OCuk members regularly poo through letterboxes and I assume that they do so in public. I haven't heard of anyone being told to stop.
3 years old! It should be on solid now, fair enough if she wants to feed the child but at least cover it up slightly or go to the toilets, if the child was under a year old then I say it's fine. TBH breast feeding has always been a touchy subject, I'm more than happy to see some boobies but not when the kid is being breast feed, it would put me off my **** bank for a good week or two!
So is my hobby of playing with myself, if I go outside and do it I get done for "Indecent Exposure".

Saw a woman breastfeeding her kind in Hull Whaling museum (prepares for jokes) in the early '80s. Mate I was with was weirded out, I thought sod all of it.
As for this woman... It's up to her if she wants to breastfeed, but if you're on someone's place of business, I imagine they have the right to tell you to gtfo, but that's probably a bit weird.
Running to twitter to bitch about it though is just attention seeking. Get over it.

Before the Internet boom this wouldn't have made the news. Remember those good old days? All the garbage you didn't get to hear.
What are the odds this story is one of the main talking points for tomorrow on TV and Radio? Hashtag.

No, people just didn't read it properly
She said she has been breastfeeding for 3 ½ years and later said her 1 year old was being difficult.
While I freely acknowledge the fact that a woman breastfeeding her child is one of the most natural things in the world, I think that it should be done with a certain amount of decorum and discretion, even if just for the modesty of the mother.
While I would not perve at a woman engaged in naturally nourishing her infant, pointedly looking in any direction but at her, to ensure everyone that I'm no peeper, we can't deny that some guys would hope to get a glimpse of flesh.
Finally, I don't see what difference it makes if the woman is feeding her child surrounded by statues.
Just because the bare breasted statues are there, it doesn't mean that real ones can be on display too, on the basis of all breasts are similar to look at.
There's a world of difference between a real warm breast, and a bunch of cold stone ones, anyone who gets excited looking at bare breasted statues, really should seek psychiatric help.
Many "specialist" websites say otherwise.

If you get excited by Breastfeeding you have weird Oedipal issues.
