Military mom ‘proud’ of breast-feeding in uniform, despite criticism
National pride, or disgrace? A photo gone viral of two servicewomen breast-feeding their children while in uniform has added a new layer to the debate over nursing in public.If you think this is a “disgrace”, just quit following me now.

Things no one tells you:
- Having sex doesn’t make you a whore.
- Not having sex doesn’t make you a saint.
- You don’t have to have kids if you don’t want to.
- You are the only person who has rights over your body.
- You are no one to judge others.
- “Femininity” is not anti-feminist.
- Verbal harassment is not flattery.
- If something makes you uncomfortable, you don’t have to endure it.
- You don’t owe anything to anyone.

gurumuhk replied to your post: Jesus Christ seriously how many of those “girly”…
what are they?
It’s these blogs that talk about things girls like or things that they consider “girly”, but I was wondering why there are so many since they all kind of seem to be built on the same idea.
Jesus Christ seriously how many of those “girly” blogs fucking exists? I’ve seen like three different ones in the past week.
