Janice.
"Annie's Mailbox" - a syndicated column in the US, had a letter today
complaining about "women exposing their breasts and nursed their babies.
They didn't bother to use anything to cover themselves up." This shocking
display of breasts took place at an all female baby shower. The
columnists-Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar completely missed the boat with
the response "We're all for nursing babies, but it is rude to make one's
guest uncomfortable...it would have been considerate for these women to
acknowledge that not all the party guests were keen on observing the
process."
You can email a response/rebuttal to them at [email protected] or

Millions of people read this column, we cannot let this go unchallenged!
