Babies should be breastfed and closely nurtured for at least two years for proper brain growth & intelligence, lack of this brings violence, suicide, depression & addiction. Dr. Dale Glaebach explains how patriarchal religious anti-sexualism caused breast-feeding to become "redefined" as an asexual experience, which then causes sexual repression and stigmatization of women. Sexual fears plague a mother's enjoyment, truncating breast-feeding when feelings arise. Evolution has given breastfeeding pleasure the same as sex TO INSURE SPECIES SURVIVAL.

Download or read book Beyond Health Beyond Choice written by Paige Hall Smith and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-15 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current public health promotion of breastfeeding relies heavily on health messaging and individual behavior change. Women are told that “breast is best” but too little serious attention is given to addressing the many social, economic, and political factors that combine to limit women’s real choice to breastfeed beyond a few days or weeks. The result: women’s, infants’, and public health interests are undermined. Beyond Health, Beyond Choice examines how feminist perspectives can inform public health support for breastfeeding. Written by authors from diverse disciplines, perspectives, and countries, this collection of essays is arranged thematically and considers breastfeeding in relation to public health and health care; work and family; embodiment (specifically breastfeeding in public); economic and ethnic factors; guilt; violence; and commercialization. By examining women’s experiences and bringing feminist insights to bear on a public issue, the editors attempt to reframe the discussion to better inform public health approaches and political action. Doing so can help us recognize the value of breastfeeding for the public’s health and the important productive and reproductive contributions women make to the world.

How her family and friends would react; that Mr Whippy would be off the menu; how quickly ice can melt on a stomach. These were on top of the many other things she didn't know about babies: how to stand while holding one; how to do a poetry gig with your baby as a member of the audience; how drum'n'bass can make a great lullaby. And that's before you even start on toddlers. But Hollie learned. And she's still learning, slowly. Nobody Told Me is a collection of poems and stories; Hollie's thoughts on raising a child in modern Britain, of trying to become a parent in modern Britain, of sex, commercialism, feeding, gender and of finding secret places to scream once in a while.

Download or read book At the Breast written by Linda M. Blum and published by Beacon Press (MA). This book was released on 1999 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the Breast is a fascinating look at how women in different economic and ethnic groups respond to the 1990s version of idealized motherhood, particularly breastfeeding. Discouraged by the medical community from the 1950s to the 1970s, breast-feeding regained esteem in the 1980s. and now most doctors take the line that "breast is best, " In fact, as Linda Blum demonstrates, popular magazines and the news media frequently report the health benefits of breast milk for infants, so that breastfeeding is now considered the sine qua non of good mothering, and often the "bond" that cements the mother/child relationship.As she explores the history and reasons for this shift, Blum reveals that a discussion about the seemingly private and individual practice of breastfeeding is really a larger conversation about motherhood, sexuality, class, and race. She interviews three groups of women -- the white, middle-class mothers of La Leche League and black and white working-class mothers -- to discover that breastfeeding can be, by turns, a deeply gratifying experience of embodiment, an anxiety-evoking reminder of uncertain respectability and diminished expectations, and an undesirable practice mat carries reminders of the painful history of relations between blacks and whites in the U.S.For mothers considering their roles and for readers interested in questions of feminism. class, and race. At the Breast offers a penetrating view of our society from a unique angle.
Download or read book Feminism Breasts and Breast Feeding written by P. Carter and published by Springer. This book was released on 1995-10-27 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book uses a feminist approach to examine the vast amount of material on breast-feeding. Baby milk manufacture is usually seen as the sole cause of the decline in breast-feeding. Using interviews with women the author looks at other dimensions: the sexualization of breasts; the conditions under which infant feeding takes place and professional interventions into mothering. Policy documents and popular breast-feeding books are shown to be preoccupied with getting women to do what they deem natural rather than with women's real needs.
Download or read book Breastfeeding and Culture written by Ann Marie A. Short and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For myriad reasons, breastfeeding is a fraught issue among mothers in the U.S. and other industrialized nations, and breastfeeding advocacy in particular remains a source of contention for feminist scholars and activists. Breastfeeding raises many important concerns surrounding gendered embodiment, reproductive rights and autonomy, essentializing discourses and the struggle against biology as destiny, and public policies that have the potential to support or undermine women, and mothers in particular, in the workplace. The essays in this collection engage with the varied and complicated ways in which cultural attitudes about mothering and female sexuality inform the way people understand, embrace, reject, and talk about breastfeeding, as well as with the promises and limitations of feminist breastfeeding advocacy. They attend to diffuse discourses about and cultural representations of infant feeding, all the while utilizing feminist methodologies to interrogate essentializing ideologies that suggest that women's bodies are the "natural" choice for infant feeding. These interdisciplinary analyses, which include history, law, art history, literary studies, sociology, critical race studies, media studies, communication studies, and history, are meant to represent a broader conversation about how society understands infant feeding and maternal autonomy.
