Oh, not this shit again!
Remember the massive wankstorm that happened when LJ had problems with breastfeeding in default icons?

Get ready for round two. This time, it's Facebook's turn in the barrel.

(I'm borrowing a friend's computer. Much more links when I get home.)

ETA: Okay, I lose for rushing to print too quickly -- back when I was leafing through it at a friend's house, this looked much bigger and wankier than it does now. Well, it still looks big and wanky, but a good deal less entertaining. Anyway, in a too-little-too-late bid to lessen my fail a little...

The Facebook petition. From here, there are about 1500 discussion threads, but the highlights include...

Breastfeeding hurts. Not the first thing I'd think of if I was reading a magazine and found two pages stuck together, but then, I'm not in marketing.

Another petition, this time directed at Obama. Incudes abortion wank. ("Obama couldn't possibly give a shit about breastfeeding rights, he's pro-child murder!")

Aw, damn, there's no funny in that.

Meet Harlan. He doesn't see the big deal, and thinks breastfeeding should be done privately. Obviously, lots of people disagree with him: "You don't own my breasts," "mind your own business," "breastfeeding is not sexual," and... what do you mean, I have to be logged in to go past the first page?

Okay, I give up. Bring on your tomatoes and admonitions to lurk moar.

Here I was hoping for some good wank to cure my current annoyance. You get a slow clap for this.
