And right off the bat, I'll say I do not have any children, but I've always thought all mammals, with their ability to self-produce and administer nourishment to their young, was one of the coolest things in the world. Even as I child, I thought our cat nursing her kittens was just the most amazing thing. I mean, birds had to get bugs and worms for their babies, but our kitty could do it all herself!

Even as I grew older, I never sexualized the feeding process - it never even occurred to me. It also makes me wonder how cold and distant these people must be towards their children - do they see all touching and holding of their own children as somehow sexual? Do they really sexualize every single physical contact? What a sad way to live your life.
