Being a bit argumentative, how does the situation you describe differ from a male looking after his wife who is dying from cancer? I'll start. If a man's wife was during of cancer he could do a few things. - quit work or take extended leave of absence to look after her - continue to work and look after her out side of work hours - employee someone to look after her when he's at work. - get family/friend to look after her when he's at work. - carry on as normal and let macmillion nurses come and help as needed. Under no circumstances in normal employment would he be able to take her to work, which as it happens is the same choose us mere mortals have when our maternity/paternity ends. Imagine if you call for an ambulance and it turns up with two mums and two babies. Or indeed their dying partner. Disclaimer. It's not meant to offend. I can't really add too much to this other than saying for some there is a further suggestion of how to cope. The further suggestion is to try to build as much flexibility into work as far as is practical. At various times I used all of your suggestions but there was a couple of times when these were not possible. A couple of times I did take my wife to work with me (with the clients permission - the client also happily provided a sensitive and trained first aider to assist with any complications). Was my mind fully on the job - no way - but the client weighed up that it was better to have me there than someone else. Doesn't work for all jobs, I had already cancelled my Safety Critical certificate. Births/deaths happen that is nature, the world keeps spinning. In my opinion the sooner people accept this the happier society will become. Lecture/rant over.

I'll appreciate many jobs don't have that flexabilty. I have actually taken the kids to work and they have spent a couple of hours messing around in the office. However this was outside of my work hours and they needed me for something. So was that or nothing. I wouldn't be able to do it otherwise.

Why are women allowed to go round with their tits out, yet I am not allowed to go round with my willy out? That's sexism. Also, dogs taken for walkies outside should have to wear underpants by law - who wants to see their bums? Not me. Ok try letting a baby suck your willy in public....

The thread seems to have drifted (with help from the usual few) into territory that was neither promoted, or intended. This thread was going along perfectly well and on topic untill this from you.... That's assuming of course that all men have your traits, which I'm sure they don't. Porn vids and page 3? How tacky. Which you posted in response to a perfectly reasonable general and open question from me. So please dont make out it was down to the input of others. Martin, I know your one of the thicker twunts on here, and to be honest, you have no need to constantly emphasise this. (No wonder the NHS is such a mess having had idiots like you working there).

Phew, waded through the wittering,got to the end! No problem for me with anyone breastfeeding, discreetly or not, wherever. (Awaits Mr picky pedant to come along and say, "best not in the Antarctic!" . Have you never tried milk lollies.)

Yeh, there is. Your a flipping expert at it. Remind us mr j, what is exactly you find uncomfortable about breastfeeding in public..... I wonder if Jenlyn has ever pumped milk from a woman's breast, with a breast pump, into a bottle, so when the baby wakes up in the middle of the night (as they do), there's already a few bottles of breast milk in the fridge. I found the best way to warm the bottle up was to put it in a saucepan and pour boiling water round it and wait for 5 minutes or so. Test the temperature by squirting it onto your elbow. Here's something for you to dream about tonight, Jenlyn:

we all have nipples, they aren't any more unusual looking than an elbow. Why would you care about seeing one? I've never fancied licking, sucking and generally playing with anyone's elbow.

You obviously don't have the same feelings as I do, I can accept that. You need to do the same. The thread seems to have drifted (with help from the usual few) into territory that was neither promoted, or intended. Breast feeding is not the issue. Using breast feeding to draw attention to yourself is. If you suddenly decided that you fear elbows as much as you fear breasts, would you then expect people to respect your wishes and wear long sleeves around you? If you've been sucking elbows, you've been smoking the wrong stuff ๐๐

I struggle to understand how seeing a nipple can make someone feel uncomfortable, I can't say it would bother me if people were walking around fully naked. I've been to nude beaches before with some friends who are nudists and that didn't bother me. It seems like a strange thing to be concerned about, we all have nipples, they aren't any more unusual looking than an elbow. Why would you care about seeing one? The thread seems to have drifted (with help from the usual few) into territory that was neither promoted, or intended. Yes, you have made yourself look a bit of a tit here. Time to update your blog, methinks.

Using breast feeding to draw attention to yourself is. My conclusion was that she did something unusual and pushed some boundaries on an issue that she felt strongly about to provoke a wider discussion of that issue. A by product of that was that she also drew attention to herself. Scandalous, eh? Breast feeding in public (even though she was covered and wasn't waving her boobs about and shouting "Hey everyone get a load of this!!" Whatever happened to the old-fashioned, innocent pastimes of running people over on Westminster Bridge?

I struggle to understand why our local naked rambler has spent so many years in prison but some people were offended, upset and embarrassed by him. Or were the courts just offended on our behalf.
