Should Men Breastfeed? | Good Morning Britain

She is also joined by Quentin Willson and Spencer Matthews who debate whether or not they would try chest feeding.





Cannot see many men signing up to this to be honest

she's ripped off an idea from meet the fockers, the mannery gland


if men want to pretend to be women then that's fine, but a bottle works just as well if you cant get a real women to do it.

That'll be next in the merging of the sexes.

What happened to the good old days when dad was too busy working to support mum and baby to be envious of her ability to breast feed.

The world has gone mad.

So...mum has just had a baby and is nursing, dad brings home the money to support his family.
I doubt any dad feels left out because his breasts are not producing milk....and if he does he should seek psychiatric help.

Holding my god daughter (her mum bravely left her with me and her dad to go to shops) I thought it would be useful, I was holding her sitting on couch and she was getting fidgety and was obviously getting hungry,  she quietened with her pacifier but it seemed a natural way to feed a child (cause it is)

I mean really it's just an odd shaped bottle

It's a natural way for a mother to feed her child, I cant think of anything more UNNATURAL than for a man to pretend he is breast feeding.
Milk can be expressed into a bottle....the man can bond with the baby that way....this merging of the sexes is getting incredibly unhealthy imo.

the Baby didn't seem to think so.
the Baby instinctively seeks a nipple on the chest.
how is a cylindrical glass or plastic bottle bottle Natural?
it's not in any way natural, it's just what you used 

Lets make a better tit shaped bottle
And the tit bottle doesn't work if milk isn't put in it first.
It's literally just a Bottle in a Shape a Baby finds more natural

Its not the baby's viewpoint thats important here....all the baby wants to do is feed, he would take his milk from a dog if it was offered.

Make the bottle any shape you want, just dont medically change a mans chest into an  unnatural  lactating breast   and call it normal.

And that is the core of the disagreement
I say it is all that actually matters...
not the unnatural conventions of the past,
I don't think anyone is talking about men lactating just feeding the baby with a Boobie bottle (Quill will you accept the challenge of find pic )

The thread is about medically enabling men to lactate....have you not watched the video in the OP.

Nah it looked boring, I just took the flockers summary

that's what I 'thought would be useful',  Although I don't think it needs to be as complex as that.

It is complex though, as well as being unnatural and abnormal.
I added to my post above to include a couple of paragraphs of what male breasfeeding, or chestfeeding entails.

Do you still fancy it?
