The Academy of Breastfeeding Medicine has issued guidelines that suggest employing such terms as “chestfeeding,” “human milk feeding,” and “parent’s milk” to promote what it calls “gender-inclusive language.” The ABM position statement on “infant feeding and lactation-related language and gender,” co-authored by eight doctors and the academy, said that “the use of de-sexed or gender-inclusive language is appropriate in many settings.” “ABM recognizes that not all people who give birth and lactate identify as female, and that some of these individuals identify as neither female nor male,” said the four-page document posted July 29. Suggested “gender-inclusive terms” for “breastfeeding” include “chestfeeding, lactating,

Great Googly-moogly! And 'they' wonder why rational, thinking adults question the dictates of so-called authority? I can hear my dearly departed Dad say, 'that's about as useless as t!ts on a boar hog!' Yes, Dad. Yes it is.

As Rush used to say, words mean things. This latest foray into censorship is an attack on women. Women, not men lactate. It's what happens after you give birth. Men cannot do the former so they certainly cannot do the latter. No matter how absurdly PC they get, biology is biology.Don't fall into self censoring to satisfy the PC bullies.

#8 is absolutely correct about La Leche! My friend had twins more than 30 years ago and tried around the clock to nurse them. It just wasn't working, and she was a wreck. As if that wasn't enough stress for her, the LL gals badgered her with phonecalls and in person at her home. They were the original "Karens"!

I used to work in a Crisis Psych Ward. We often received guys who were found praying on the freeway. We seem to be running out of freeways.

ABM was founded in 1993. It's a community of medical doctors who claim to have diverse backgrounds and diverse perspectives. These proposed gender-inclusive guidelines suggest to me that ABM has been infiltrated by, and is currently controlled by, woke fools.
Nothing new. More and more and day by day, woke fools are infiltrating, and taking control of, almost every organization, group, and other entity that is not yet fully woke.

Just pure insanity!!!!
Who cares if a woman doesn't "identify" as a woman!!! Her DNA doesn't lie. Only women can have babies, and only women can breast feed!!! It really doesn't matter if those women are mentally ill and don't "identify" as women. They are still women!!!!
Sadly, follow the money. When doctors figured out that mental illness makes them a lot of money, they started accepting all sorts of mental illness as being "normal", knowing darn well that people who give in to those insane ideas will needs years of mental health treatments. Just lots of money in their pockets -- to Hell with the health and well being of the patients they are condemning to lives of depression and insanity!!!!

If you give birth and lactate. YOU ARE FEMALE.
No male in the history of the world has ever given birth.

I look at Youtube a lot and stumbled on a video with a man actually feeding an infant. You do NOT want to see this. I clicked off as fast as humanly possible. This is a whole other level of insanity.

There are men. There are women. Thats it and thats all there ever will be. This whole de-genderizing language bull is for people who don’t do anything at work other than create controversy to make them feel special like a unicorn.

Is there anybody, anybody at all that is more stupid and out of touch with reality than the left and the narcissistic so called "transgender" movement? Absolutely insane and totally detached from hundreds of years reality.
