      When I was a kid, in the 80s, it was possible for women to publicly complain about breastfeeding, even say they didn't want to do it Breastfeeding vs formula was a "cost/benefit analysis" that was openly discussed Now you can't breathe a word of that without public shaming

      I mean, it also wasn't legal to breastfeed in public & Nestle pushed formulae so it could get rich, so the changes haven't been all bad. But these people are using it as an excuse to attack unconventional families, so fuck them.

      God, the shit that people get for even *supplementing* with formula is *amazing.* It doesn't even have to be, "I only use formula," but "I also use formula," and the flipping out begins.

      ...the alternative to breastfeeding is formula.

      No, there's also milk donation/purchasing. This is so ridiculous.

      No, what's ridiculous is claiming that there will ever be a supply of donated human milk that can supplant formula use on a large scale

      The only reason why we have massive formula use in the US is because mothers have no maternity leave. I really wish people gave a shit about mothers and their infants.

      nope -- I live in Canada and formula is still used here because breastfeeding *does not work* for everyone all the time You even acknowledge yourself that breastfeeding is hard for many people and you just don't accept that people have a right to not do it

      Someone else pointed out to me that in some European countries you can't even show the name of a formula brand on TV, advertising of formula is as tightly restricted as advertising cigarettes, they're regulated as a socially destructive product That's really fucked up

      Obviously there is more to this than mothers having more economic choice, there's an active campaign of cultural pressure from the Milk Militia

          It also has to do with the nestle formula scandal after Chernobyl...

          Yeah I know about the Nestlé scandal and at this point, if all of this stuff is in reaction to that, I think we can call the backlash a moral panic

          There’s also the issue of it’s really hard to get enough milk for some women, especially at first. With my kid- the choice was malnutrition or formula. So, uh, no choice at all

          unfortunately there is a choice -- health authorities, including my local one, actively lie to parents about whether their babies are malnourished in order to discourage them from ever supplementing with formula The result has been many, many preventable injuries to babies
