Pink Breastfeeds In Public, Just To Get A Rise Out Of People
Breastfeeding in public can be a controversial issue, but don’t share your negative reaction to it with Pink. She recently revealed that she’s a “militant” breastfeeder and does it often in public, sometimes just to start a fight.
The celebrity rocker and mom to 15-month-old Willow revealed in a recent interview that she’s gotten in at least one fight over breastfeeding in public. She nursed her daughter at a restaurant under a “Hooter Hider,” and a man walked by, openly proclaiming his disgust. “I had a cover on,” she said on British talk show Alan Carr: Chatty Man, “And this guy walks by, and he was like, ‘Ughhh.’ He was just disgusted.”
“I was like, ‘You didn’t get enough hugs when you were little,’ ” she said. Her husband, Carey Hart, told her: “‘You’re starting fights in restaurants.’ ”
“I will,” she said. “I will fight. Hold my baby,” Pink said, laughing.
When Carr asked Pink whether she considers herself “one of those militant breastfeeder women,” her answer was simple: Absolutely.
“I do. I do on purpose,” she said. “I think breastfeeding is healthy and natural and it’s a comfort to my baby.”
She told Carr that she is still nursing Willow but is mindful to take out her nipple rings to do so. “I had to take them out because it was like a sprinkler,” she said.
Being a mom has also caused Pink to relax a little on the partying. “Babies don’t respect hangovers,” Pink said. “No matter what time we go to bed, she wakes up at 5. So I party from maybe like 9 to 10. And I party hard for that one hour. I get it all in.”
Here’s the episode Pink appeared on. She shows up around 27:20. We’re supposed to end with a question, so why don’t I ask the obvious one: Are you “one of those militant breast-feeder women?”

Yes! Yes I am.

I'm not a mom but I plan on breast feeding and do not care what other's have to say.
Sep 26, 2012
Yes! But with modesty.
Sep 26, 2012
yes
Sep 26, 2012
no no I don't want to see this in public thanks?

As long and you dont just pull your breast out nipples and all I don't see why someone would be so offended. The baby and breast is covered! And that is more coverage than some women will put on tp dress.

WTH is indecent about a baby feeding? I breastfed mine in church! Just put a cloth diaper over their faces.

If you would rather see women walking around with their butts hanging out and wearing slutty clothing or anything of the nature then why can't a woman breastfeed In public. I'm not a mom, yet, I'll be damned if someone tells me what I can cant do in public with my child as far as I'm concerned.

As long as its covered enough and you don't need both breast fully exposed, the only part the baby needs is ONE NIPPLE on ONE breast. Some people don't want to see that. I know a guy says he likes breast but, seeing someone feed makes him want to throw up. He says it like, if he were into ass, but watching some take a dump would probably make them sick. He is also lactose in tolerant so I think it has more to do with that, his body may have a specific reaction to being around milk in general. Kind of like how seeing water makes some people have to pee.

Why, who and what is it going to hurt? woman have been doing to for thousands of years.

So don't look.

It's terribly inconvenient for a breastfeeding mother to "put it in a bottle". One of my 5 sons refused to have a plastic nipple in his mouth so that would have been impossible anyway. Mother's need to be able to feed their babies where ever without judgement from others. Why is it that only in the United States is this even a question? Breastfeeding mothers are a common sight in the rest of the world. People need to relax.

Some people's responses make no damn sense on here, men do not understand what it is like to be a mom who breastfeed's her baby ONe not only is it better for the baby. It gives the child more Vitamins and Antibodies that the baby formula does not, Some mother's can not breastfeed so that is o.k the one's that choose to breastfeed are trying to do something for there babies. A breast feed baby that doesn't do drugs and drink have a better chance at a healthier life because of breast milk. A lot of mother's no longer breast feed because of the ridicule they get for breastfeeding and not being able to go place's. So have some respect for the mother's that breastfeed they are trying to give there babies something good for them. Do not like it do not look!!! SIMPLE!
