EXCERPT:
UNKNOWN: “There are also a lot of trans men who have fed a baby with their tiddies because they were still attached.”
UNKNOWN: “Not everyone that chestfeeds or bodyfeeds identifies as a woman.”
UNKNOWN: “I try to be respectful and inclusive of everybody’s identities and preferences. I will go back and forth between saying breastfeeding mother or lactating parent or chestfeeding.”
UNKNOWN: “I call it chestfeeding because I know that not everybody who feeds from their body has breasts. And I don’t care if that bothers you. I’m going to keep calling it chestfeeding.”
UNKNOWN: “In order to chestfeed, you have to have breast gland, you have to have ducts, and you have to have the nipple so your child can suckle.”
