Good for them for standing up for the mums. I suppose he would want mothers to stay indoors until the kids are adults. Its hard enough being a new mum without some bigoted man telling them what to do.

Wonderful to see breastfeeding women being stood up for, rather than put down. Way to go to the lady who put the rude man in his place.

I agree with the cafe owners and other comments on here. I am very pro breastfeeding. Not only is a Mum feeding her baby, she has a quiet contented baby, not screaming and distressed – distressing the Mum at the same time. The guy could have moved and not made a “scene”.
Having said that, I don’t think it is necessary to have both breasts hanging out and the Mum be exposed right down to the waist (or lower -I believe me I felt embarrassed) as I have seen a few do recently. My children aren’t old enough to understand. One whispered in my ear, luckily not out loud.

This reminds me of a post on Facebook that so poiniently puts it this way… we used boobs to sell everything from cars to food to holiday destinations and no one bats an eyelid but a woman breast feeds in public and everyone loses their minds. ..
I am pro breast feeding all the way, it is such a natural thing. Shame on those who make women feel bad for doing something so natural.

Most women try not to flash too much when they’re feeding… And it’s polite not to gawp anyway.

It’s amazing that this kind of stuff still happens

She took the right decision, no question about that. Incredible what that man dared to say!!

yes it is a form of bullying. the man could have moved and there wouldn’t have been an issue

Nice work on the establishment. It is against the law and he should have been asked to leave. I am not a mother who breast feeds in public but am 100% on board with a woman’s right to do so.

well done for standing firm and supporting the lady Shame on the “middle aged man” if you dont like it then go else where!

Refreshing to read this kind of story. About time! Well done to this cafe owner.

Good on her for standing up to the ignorant man. My father in law recently opened up a cafe and majority of his customers are mothers groups who breastfeed and we have never had any issues with them feeling uncomfortable or other customers being offended. It should be a non issue and something that should be embraced. These ladies are feeding their child not taking their boob out for fun.
