I don't why some ladies are so interested in showing their breasts.?I am not against breastfeeding.What's the use of posting your half nude pics over internet? You doing some kinda educational campaign?

It's pathetic.Breastfeeding is not obscene!You can’t say that something isn’t porn because it has been done by humans for as long as they’ve existed or because it’s a natural thing.

J, the reason for the Facebook group was to support other mothers and to
promote the cause. It's a health issue, after all, and an important one.
It's also natural. It's interesting to me that a man's bared chest is not
considered nudity but a woman's is.

I don't want to see hateful speech either, but I do respect the principles
of free speech as they apply to speech I don't like as well as speech I do
like. Facebook, evidently, isn't quite as willing to adopt consistent
standards.

As to the sharing point, I'll go back to point 1 - it was intended to be
supportive of others and promote bfeeding as the best choice for new babies'
health.

I'm risking putting out this comment, but by fully accepting freedom of speech and freedom of expression we also understand that groups producing hate and ignorance are a part of that. Frankly, I don't want to see hateful speech and therefore try not be on any sites that have it, I also do not understand the drive to show yourself breast feeding on a site such as Facebook.
If a woman is in public needing to breast feed her child because one, it is hungry and two, she is not in the privacy of her own home that I can understand, I am not offended, nor bothered in any way, that is natural. If a woman needs instruction on how to breastfeed and needs to go to a site or class for understanding, that is also valid and important.
However, I think our society has gotten to the point where they think everyone wants to know and see everything about them and to me that is the fatal flaw in thinking. Sure, we are all free to say and do what we want, but do we need to advertise it to the masses?
You wouldn't need to address this issue and Facebook wouldn't feel the need to address it either if people were not so hell bent on sharing every detail of their life with potentially millions of other people. I unfortunately find myself somewhere between freedom/rights, cultural shifts and policies, a tough place to be. Maybe we are just getting to a time in history when we are over-burdening our systems because we are overexposing ourselves?

The issue for me is fairness. I've dealt with the same kinds of issues over and over again. You're right about what the usual bias is. The problem is that it's hypocritical, and when you have a community the size of Facebook, hypocritical community management isn't going to fly.

One solution would be to force both groups to private status, rather than allowing the hatemongerers to enjoy a free public platform for their recruiting. Another would be to simply allow both of them to exist.

What isn't acceptable is to treat them differently. At the core, it's the same issue.

I'd also note that the mommyblogging community is *not* a small one. It's one of the most vocal groups out there, and most advertisers know it. Last year's BlogHer conference proved that -- sponsors were falling over themselves to get their products in front of these women and have them start buzzing about it.

The ironic part of this is that mommybloggers and tech blogger/geeks are natural allies. Yet, when it comes to this, where are the voices standing up for fairness online? Mike is one, despite the fact that his outrage comes from the affront of the deniers. Where are the rest?
