I'm glad you're in support of breastfeeding. But the above statement is nonsense. According to the CDC it's been
increasing in recent years. And of all the women I know who didn't breastfeed or stopped early, not one of them did it because they were insecure about no longer being an attractive Cosmo stereotype. They stopped because it was painful, difficult, and/or embarrassing in public or even when others were visiting in their homes. The last thing they gave a damn about was whether they were hawt.
