And for how long it's been going on. Apparently in the 1960s, breast feeding wasn't even encouraged by hospitals in new mother situations.

With formula being touted as a feminist victory, freeing women from their babies to be able to work for strangers instead, it's no surprise when this started (the 1960s).

Furthermore, the usual argument for formula seems to be jealous women who can't produce milk. But, why isn't that seen as a major health crisis, instead of a selling point for formula?

Commies really fucked up our world. Women have two devices on their bodies that produce the most amazing infant food anyone could ever conceive, but they were tricked into buying processed shit to replace it. It blows my mind that this ever could have happened. It's almost like selling prosthetic legs to healthy people.

Fuck commies.

I understand that there are one offs like this, but I'm talking more about the more general situation. We could also talk about women who have had serial killers cut their tits off, but that doesn't invalidate the point.

That the only arguments against treating nursing as the norm are specific situations goes a long way toward proving the point of my question.

i agree. but problems with nursing are more commonplace than we realize. back in the good ole days when a mother had issues, there were wet nurses, trusted women, who filled the void.
