Here is another one from Meredith Fein Lichtenberg http://fray.slate.com/discuss/forums/post/2559110.aspx

Quote:

Rosin suggests that breastfeeding causes moms to succumb, slowly, into the stereotype of 'doing it all' with dad as the occasional special guest star. Is she an ad exec for some organization for Caveman-Dads? Talk about a marketing scheme - let's take a bunch of husbands who don't have a clue and say it's not their fault - their choices, their interests, their priorities have nothing to do with it. The reason they're so unavailable and non-participatory is, is is … well, it's the mom's breasts that are at fault!

No, ma'am. Your breasts are not responsible for the fact that your husband doesn't change any diapers.
