Erm, that's called cannibalism
look it up in in a thing called a, dic-tion-ary, and it has precisely 'fuck all' to do with the discussion at hand.

i disagree
it's a by-product of the human body, no?

Yes, all mammal babies are cannibals, you are correct
Milk is produced by a lactating mother to provide sustenance for their offspring, a completely natural process. Eating the flesh of your own species is not a natural process.

Drinking milk from cows unnaturally bred to produce far more milk than they ever would 'in the wild' then pumped full of antibiotics, and whatever the fuck else, is brilliant though, and completely natural!

MEH

human titcheese is wrong and i reckon if you had a slice of it right now on a ryvita you'd be hurling!

really?
After they're dead it hardly matters does it? Eating breastmilk products when you're not related to the producer is really odd.

Odd, vile, disgusting, frowned upon by our ridiculous society, all these things
Fuck, even mothers feeding their babies in public get a hard time these days.

So your saying the titcheese would be OK, if it was from one of your relations? Make you mind up.

What about eating the placenta?
I'm just chucking this into the pot.

Perhaps.
Not raw though, or from the source. It is a great source of vitamins and minerals, perfect for the new mother who needs to start breastfeeding right away. Probably better for you than most hospital meals I would imagine.

The mothers should gobble it down like a dog straight after the birth

it down like a dog

couldn't resist

That too

( Light In Chains maker of the ikea sofa, Fri 22 Oct 2010, 17:02, Reply)

yeah
I'm totally saying public breastfeeding is wrong. Nice extrapolation there. Wrong but nice.

I'm allowed to be disgusted if I want. If I told someone they were wrong or tried to force them not to *I* would be in the wrong. But I'm not, I'm holding a valid and perfectly reasonable opinion thanks

How on earth is anyone supposed to take you saying "You're seriously fucking odd" and "that is absolutely vile And makes me feel a little sick"
in any way other than that you think what they are doing is wrong.

I don't have a problem with you saying "I wouldn't like to do this" but you're saying the whole concept is wrong, when it's just a case of horses for courses.
(Bazongaloid, Fri 22 Oct 2010, 16:54, Reply)

because thats how I feel about it
And actually oddly enough I'm allowed to have that opinion. It's not wrong. Yeah there is a difference actually between thinking something is distasteful and thinking it is wrong. Its an issue that obviously you feel strongly on. Well you're going to have to run the risk of someone actually having a different opinion on this one. The difference in feeling between those married and/or with children, and those who aren't is quite striking on this

That is a salient observation.

( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Fri 22 Oct 2010, 17:04, Reply)

agreed

( rachelswipe with a fork, Fri 22 Oct 2010, 17:07, Reply)

I used the breastfeeding thing simply to illustrate the general revulsion people have with it
We are ALL holding valid opinions, some more reasonable than others though.

Isn't this what a wet nurse does?
I think it's still done in many developing countries. Salma Hayek was in the news last year for nursing a baby in Sierra Leone.

That's exactly
what a wetnurse does. Long history of wetnursing in this country and still happens to this day.
