Breasts are secondary sexual characteristics, so okay. But so what? Who said anything to do with reproduction is intrinsically inappropriate? Women have big hips, too; should we require them to wear boxes? As far as I'm concerned, the only reason people shouldn't walk around naked 100% of the time is for their comfort and due to serious hygiene issues from fluid cross-contamination.
also, where did the whole slave thing come from? that went from 0 - 60 real fast LOL
As for the "slave thing," it's a crystal clear example of the dis-ingenuity of people claiming the imposition of their own wants on someone else is for the other's best interest. "I'm not racist but. . ."
Here we have a crystal case of the same category of bullshit from Sterben: "Of course, I'M fine with breast feeding, I'm just worried about the women who will have to have perverts (read: like me) staring at their breasts."
No. Fucking no. The solution to double standards isn't to condescendingly guide women through the minefield of social convention. It's to recognize that the convention is bullshit, rooted in the barbarism of Victorian English and a fairy-tale religion, and to refuse to accept it. If perverts won't stop staring at a mother's breasts, then discipline the perverts, and leave the baby to eat its lunch in peace.

Either legalize all kinds of nudity in public or deny all kinds of nudity. It's that simple.
I've seen double-D's on men. If breasts and nipples need to be covered, then make a law requiring them to be covered. Selectively deciding that men can walk around in nothing but a speedo, but a woman has to wear a fucking burka, is not a distinction we need to enforce..
--edit--
I propose that all men should be required to wear neck scarves, since Adam's apples are a secondary sexual characteristic. Those filthy men, just walking around in public with their bulging throats on display like that. . . how can anybody get any fucking work done?
