My breasts, my choice!

“My body, my breasts, my choice.” Each woman does what suits her and does not need to justify herself in any way. What we are interested in here is to understand how breastfeeding is or is not feminist. What has been the place of breastfeeding in the history of women? Why was it once rejected? Why do some reclaim it today? The author looks back at the history of breastfeeding and produces a lively analysis of the evolution of mentalities, from a feminist perspective. Breastfeeding is an increasingly publicised social issue, in the ecofeminism movement You will find testimonies from feminist breastfeeding mothers, but also from feminist mothers who have chosen not to breastfeed.
