Edit: I do not understand why I am getting downvoted here? It should be fairly obvious that this is not a sexual thing? Do people disagree with it being beautiful?

        Dude read what you said. You’re like happy you can gawk your wife put the boob to your baby’s face or some shit. Its weird, and theres no way to word it that sounds how you intend.

            You can’t word that to not sound creepy. We get it, its encapsulates all micro and macros and the cycles of the universe, but you can’t say “I like to watch my baby be breastfed” without sounding a little creepy.

              I mean… breastfeeding is a natural part of human and mammal existence. If you see it happening as a father or relative, then you’re seeing a sign that things seem to be going healthily and relatively happily.

              You also have to remember that what was likely part of your earlier attraction to your mate (reproductive organs) can later be seen in a completely different light. The breasts as a mechanism of nourishment, and of course the birth canal, delivering new life (and your personal offspring) in to the world.

              So in these cases, there’s a sense of transformation of one’s viewpoint. Which can indeed be impressive, breathtaking, and yeah… beautiful. I don’t see any reason any of that would necessarily be “creepy” for the person having that experience.

                  Liking to watch the mother of your child care for that child, is not creepy. He didnt say he liked watching all women breastfeed, he said he liked watching his wife nurturing their baby, and exressed a change in world view on the supject, which is pretty cool.

                  Got it. So just strip away all that relevant context and pretend that it’s some babies-breastfeeding fetish, and not actually father-child-mother related.

                  So here’s a question-- would you say you’ve personally graduated from a certain horndog phase of younger life, one in which it’s all too easy to view women as objects? And are you a father yourself?

                    You’re trying really really hard to shame me here or something. But go for it dude. Be mad I said that. Have at it. Because it is true. “Oh yay I can finally watch my wife breastfeed the baby!” Just enjoy your child, no need to announce that you can finally watch them eat like a thorn has been removed from your side. Either way, the post is weird. I have seen all of my.kids breastfeed and never felt the need to announce it, or say anything at all about it. Its weird to do that.

          Hmm… Why is it weird? Is this some puritanical breasts = sex thing?

          It’s the most natural thing in the world. A newborn having a loving moment with its mom. Watching breastfeeding does not necessarily entail “gawking” at the breast itself.
