Irony of life....!
I remember when i was breastfeeding my 5month old son,it was in a shopping mall and he was really crying,i was nervous and tensed up and went to one side and put my monstrous nipple into his mouth.
A lady with a daughter who was half dressed and both with mouth agape walked up to me immediately and advised me to go home and feed my child or cover up.......i just kept staring at her teenage daughters half exposed peek-a-boobs....
.......I stared and stared and i have not forgotten how i thought they felt i couldn't bring it out and feed my child but people could walk around naked all in the name of fashion.
Irony of life!
D world celebrates nudity!
ReplyDeleteYes they do.
DeleteMine was in a church. My baby was just 3months and crying seriously, I moved 2d back and started bfeeding her only for an 'usher' to come and ask me to stop bfeeding my baby or go outside d church and that if I wasn't aware that I was in a church? I was shocked, angry and speechless. I just called my hubby out from d service and we left. I couldn't blv it. This was a woman like me too, she wasn't married so I tried to understand dt maybe she said it out of ignorance of what motherhood is about. The over-zealot didn't realise that I was in my Father's house. God's house. It was this same God that gave me my child that I was bfeeding. Nobody could even see me where I was seated cos all d attention was on altar. That the church is the place where every christian should be the most free. Free to be themselves in the presence of God.It's really sad. Abuja Babe.
DeleteD world really does celebrate nudity. Hmmm Stella its like u r a calm person sometimes oh. Me I sha like dos kind of situations to arise cos I know d kind of stinker d so-called lady would have gotten from me as a reply. My blood dey hot in such situations. Yimu
DeleteThis is total nonsense. So the young lady shouldn't breast feed her child cos she is graduating? Rubbish. I honestly dnt see anything wrong with what the lady did Bikonu. Am sure she did the needful @ the moment. The world should deal with it.
Delete#my thoughts.
Stella!! Urs beta. I went for my child's routine immunization in a Dr's surgery. Na so my pikin start to cry and i comfortably started breast feeding her and this oyibo in her 20's with abt a 4yr old son was giving me the eye. I just shook my head and u know what i did..... I readjusted and exposed the breast further!!!! Assholes
DeleteHi beautiful women... breastfeeding your baby is one of the most amazing and natural behaviors we were made to do as women, and once the baby starts to demand, we have no choice atall. However, breastfeeding our babies is also a very personal and special one on one time with our babies, that is when the baby gets to know us better and practically feel the life and emotions in us,meaning that when u r nervous or tensed up Bcos u r in public while breastfeeding, ur baby can feel that unhealthy vibe too. all these we share with our babies when they suckle. It shouldn't be done in public, just Bcos we grew up seeing our moms do it just anywhere doesn't make it normal or ok. Childbirth is also natural and we can't help it when the urge comes but u don't see pple squatting anywhere to birth their babies just because it is natural and u can't help it. We r humans not animals and there is never any reason good enuf to show nudity! I will NOT judge the young lady or Rihanna, they don't know any better. Women should always coverup no matter what! Equip urself with something to cover up when u go out with ur baby, plan 4 it just the same way u plan 4 childbirth.

Delete@anon 1.21,please don't justify breastfeeding in church,what stopped you from taking a few more steps outside and finding a private place to breasfeed? Cmon sense is truly not cmon,u were shocked and angry?? What fuckery!!!
Delete@kendall flower. I think you missed the point of her funny look. You mentioned a 4 year old boy. That's someone else's child you exposed to your nudity, natural or not. That is what makes breastfeeding without a cover up inappropriate in that instance.
DeleteWell said Adaora!
DeleteYes oh. We are hypocritical in nature, We hardly love our own.

Stella please you need to learn the definition of irony. There's nothing ironic about this.
ReplyDeleteThe woman is allowed to feed her child, most people use a small blanket to cover their breasts and get some semblance of privacy when breastfeeding in public place NOT pose for pictures, but to each their own. I don't know, breastfeeding at a graduation seems inappropriate.
Rihanna wore a see through gown to a fashion award show, her dress pushed the envelope of fashion, the very reason she WON a fashion award. The dress is extremely exhibitionist but considering the venue and the occassion, it was appropriate for it.
Since when did public nudity ever become appropriate?
DeleteYou obviously are not a parent. When ppl have no kids they tend to blab about such issues. Feeding your child is never ever inappropriate. And oh yes! It's Ironic how breasts are inappropriate when nursing but appropriate for fashion
DeleteMy dear it's really ironic, cos d lady breastfeeding had no choice & she was condemned, but d lady *rihanna* that was supposed to be condemned, received ovation. Did u say 'appropriate' excuse me, on what venue of occassion? Porn audition??
DeleteAnon12:01, obviously you are one of the peeps Valeria is talking about...you care more about fashion than a suckling babe getting fed....what is this world turning into? Am sure you're not a true mother cos if you have gone tru the 9 months course, you'll know exposing your breast to feed your child is childsplay compared to other sacrifices you have to make for the sake of your children!
Delete$exyD
The student was also pushing the envelope of graduating na!
DeleteSee the way you justified nudity@pushing the fashion envelope
My lil girl yanks off my muslin anytime I want to cover her while breastfeeding in public...pray tell,should I let her wail cos of that??
Biko it is never inappropriate to feed your LO!!!
You don't know the meaning of irony. Google is ya friend. Please enable and use freely.
DeleteI am a mother with two kids and I use the shawl to cover up wen breast feeding or I turn away from people. Its called decency. Rihanna was wrong for exposing her breast but so was the girl posing with exposed breast in the name of breast feeding.
DeleteThank you Babe...Its never ok to expose urself for any reason whatsoever. Am a mom,I breastfeed in public places too,but I always cover up,a lil face towel can do it,to allow d baby suckle freely. Not posing for pic while ur baby is sucking with d whole breast out...
DeleteFireworks!!
Babe, if your baby yanks off the shawl or handkerchief, what do you do?
DeleteAt a graduation, there are people everywhere, infact,students mostly,so where did you expect her to go? Walk through a throng of students just to find an empty spot which I doubt she will? Oh please, different strokes for different folks.
Real irony. People have got their priorities all wrong.
ReplyDeleteI don't agree with baring boobs publicly in the name of breast-feeding.
You can still breast feed in public, but with a shawl or scarf draped over the shoulders to preserve your modesty.
Ma dear,I experienced d same thing o...I remember dis one vividly,my first child was about 6 months old and we had gone for lunch at a swanky restaurant somewhere around Enfield.we were at d table and my baby got hungry n started fussing.I set aside my food and proceeded to breastfeed her.just moments into d breastfeeding,a woman walked up to me and sarcastically asked me"is ur bobby a pacifier?" And wit a stone face told me I shouldnt breastfeed in public.I just ignored her.u wouldn't even know it was me she was talking to.all d while I was like " Anuofia,White trash!"
ReplyDeleteMonstrous nipple.....and now am horny!
ReplyDeleteU alwaz horny. I guess u must be having sex like 20 times a day. Smh for u!
DeleteEzenwayi abeg don't b horny o, u knw oga is nt around.in as much as I don't support rihanna's nudity, d babe shuld av covered up. Me I can't brestfeed in public without covering up o b4 pipo go come see my pride I can't shout.
DeleteANGELRAY SAYS
ReplyDeleteThat u are a breast feeding mother does not mean u should xpose ur bobby for the public to see, u can cover the upper part of ur breast with handkerchief or a small hand towel. Not in support of both.
Pls wot is there to cover again when even the doctor @ hospital has seen everything...so when has deciding not to choke u baby all in the name of covering the upper part of ur boobies av become a crime? This is not called ignorance bt stupidity & want to bliv u pple blaming dis responsible mother r childless.rihanna is a bitch & she's representing exactly wot she is..call it class or fashion,she's not decent.....the nursing rocks anyday & God ll bless her

ReplyDeleteShe's proud of her daughter, dat is a sweetest part of a motherhood, free dis woman abeg. I love U girl
ReplyDeletenOTHING attractive in a breast thats feeding a baby + could be a friend that took the shot while she was breastfeeding. No law says she must cover the breast. What id there wasn't a shawl or extra cloth to cover the breast n the baby was crying and hungry, she shouldn't then feed her baby cos it will be termed inappropriate? Wonder why we love to poke our noses in other peoples business. What level of hypocrisy. Africans n low mentality!
ReplyDeleteJust fell in love with this comment
DeleteNudity sells
ReplyDeleteoh f**k it!
ReplyDeletethis is so wrong.
there are breast feeding shawls sold everywhere.
Don't get us blind with that cellulite breast
Aren't you married?stop using the F word ma,it doesn't really tell good of u.

DeleteMadam Bloglord I used to respect u bcos of ur comments.. but today I want to let u know that u are a big fool, daft and stupid.. u claim to be a Mum but u dnt understand that when a baby is hungry she wnt have tym and patience for any ceremony and who carries ard a shawl on such an occasion.. and u expect ha breast to be cellulite free?? As for using the F word.. You are just a low life.. attention seeking blog whore..
DeleteBreast na breast, whether its in a baby's mouth or just exposed.
ReplyDeleteI don't support nudity of any kind but if one can be acceptable in the name of fashion then it should be far more acceptable when it comes to breastfeeding
Well, i didn't breast feed because my husband too like breast and refused to share with our children. lol. I am not joking oh..He just said men suck their wives or girlfriend's breasts and women get their breast sucked by their husband or boyfriend and that my breasts belong to him, end of story. lol.
ReplyDeleteYou and your husband are equally stupid and selfish..... Randy couple
DeleteYou and ur husband are a pair of illiterate.. selfish.. stupid.. Mumu Fools.. and u are actually proud to admit such in Public.
DeleteHa! Chele!who say to breastfeeding dews is stupid???ehn,i like riri but if u want to compare abeg I no gree.all dis white ppl dats why some children look like aliens.mtcheew onuofia

oh please stella ur case is different.what the girl did isnt apprioprate so she just had to breatfeed on a convocation gown and she had to snap it,she was just looking for attention...some women smpling their breast in public in the name of breastfeeding,no one is saying you shouldnt breast feed in public but cover up with something.imagine someone breast feeding beside you in church. smh.
ReplyDeleteShut up! What do u know abt babies.. Ode
DeleteMy thought exactly,I brestfeed my baby anytime she demands for it,but a lil covering of d breast won't harm,not to talk of posing for a pic while doing it...
DeleteFireworks!!
CAN'T SEE NYFIN WRONG HERE. THE ONLY THING THAT'S OBVIOUSLY ABNORMAL HERE FOR ME'S RIHANNA'S HANDS....EEWWW***
ReplyDeleteCorper cafaya
DeleteWhy the comparison? Rihanna is on another level. She's an entertainer who uses her sexualty to advance herself carrier.
ReplyDeleteNo one is asking Madam graduand not to breastfeed her baby. There's a covering overall designed for such a private activity.Her body language depicting that'd of a true attention seeker. Have some self respect, there's no reason for any 21st century woman to whip out nipples in public under the excuse of breastfeeding.
Face it Stella, the ladies asked you to either cover up or go home because it was such an embarrassing sight seeing a Chimpanzee breastfeeding a child in Public!! Enwe like you!
ReplyDeleteI rather be a domestic living chimpanzee full of swag with a heart of gold than a living corpse that you are!!! FYI oke uka, cowards&haters die many times before their death..so, continue to RIP@anon1:40pm

DeleteI only breast fed for two weeks. Imagine after widen my pussy for baby's sake and add saggy boobs to it. No way, that's why my boyfriend couldn't believe I already have kids.
ReplyDeleteThat's why you have a boyfriend and not a husband. Selfish woman.
DeleteStupid vain mother who will breast feed for only two weeks because of what men will think of your body.....mschweeeeeeew
Delete#LMAO @ Monstrous Nipple .... I don't know why I find it sexy whenever I see a woman breastfeeding......
ReplyDeletea.k.a EDWIN CHINEDU AZUBUKO said...
ReplyDelete.
I dont think both of them are appropriate abeg and no one likes what rihanna put on, so obviously someone join both pic and wrote rubbish abeg.....

***CURRENTLY IN JUPITER***
WHAT she did was appropriate. HOW she did it was inappropriate.
ReplyDeleteSo she should not breastfeed cos she is graduating maybe she has no place to hide, but she should have covered a lil but her baby needs to feed cos wen they start their cry here ehh. Mothers know what am talking about, my lil gal does not joke with her bobbi ohhh at all. And as for the usher that asked that u should go out and breast feed na madness dey worry am, make she do hustle one bobo for church then get married n have a baby and she will know what's up
ReplyDeleteThe question isn't where but HOW. You should be able to breastfeed whenever and wherever the baby's hungry but you HAVE TO COVER your breast-at least most of it especially the nipples!
ReplyDeleteI dnt knw if anybody has taken notice of these observations on these 21/22nd century generation of women....Women wt their cleavages wildly xposed 4 public consumption is no crime bt NOT the NIPPLES. Even in nude clubs; yu can finger it bt the NIPPLES is NO_GO area.Yu unknowingly run into a naked lady,she goes 4 the nipples leaving the rest of the body in a shock...These answers the justification of Rihanna's nudity to public breastfeeding of a baby..The critics are ppl who believe in protecting the nipples to the health of a child that can barely talk..funny
ReplyDeleteOMG I cannot believe your mentality!
ReplyDeletewhat does being married have to do with the f word?
you can say its not proper to use it but excuse my big fat ass,it aint got nothing to do with being married or helping you get a husband.
please change that mindset you hear?wow!
same happened to me.was @ Hibachi restaurant n my son was really crying.i had to remove my breast n breastfeed him jor. the whites wr really surprise n there were just laughing but the cudnt approach me.whites are scared of blacks cos we dnt tk shit so approaching a black is like looking for trouble.
ReplyDeleteSo breastfeeding your kid in a graduation gown is supposed to trump Rihanna in that dress??...Yup...you need to get your priorities right!
ReplyDeleteAnonymous 1:40, that was hash on SDK! To all the cowards on this blog, hiding under anonymous to insult people why don't you all come out and do it the way BIG BOYS and BIG GIRLS do it? I mean if you want to insult person make you name the person! Shikena! Some of you are so bitter, once you have been insulted by some one you refuse to move on! This place is a JUNGLE deal with it.
ReplyDeleteHey to all anonymous insulting people here, IF YOU CANT TAKE THE HEAT PLEASE LEAVE THE KITCHEN !…Muaahahahahahahahahaha...
ReplyDeleteThere's no excuse. Before motherhood or anything, a woman is first of all a human being who should have some dignity and respect for her body. She shouldn't become a nudity exhibitionist for any reason. So both rihanna and the graduate were wrong!The same goes for males who urinate in public. Mc pepel says so.
ReplyDeleteNothing wrong in breastfeedg ur baby any where
ReplyDeleteMschewww!
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of generation of women and men we are breeding?
They should ask their mothers how they were breastfed!
The world is so sexualized that a simple natural innocent action is now seen as bad!
Do you peeps understood the pressure she was under at that particular time? Have you peeps handled a hungry baby? Do you know how the cries can get to you?
Who carries a wrap during an important moment in their lives?
BTW, when did this wrap became trendy in the Nigeria \ Africa society that peeps are shouting wrap! Wrap! Wrap!
It is a woman that has not seen trouble that would be using hands to hold her breast while running.
There are too much fake peeps in blogs!
Linda Eze and Ceecee are fighting what i call corocoro fight lol. That is better than people hiding under anonymous, lol . I am offering the two of you olive branch..hahahahahahahahaha..
ReplyDeleteFor me,the girl's breast looks far better than the slippers on Rihanna's chest.That breast is an eyesore.
