This right here is yet another example of why freedom of speech is so important and why I am appalled by the tendency of the fediverse to demonize it.

@snow I think its no different than the prejudice we see anywhere else. People see something as different and dont want something different around them. It is a lack of normalization nothing more.

@snow @freemo some of this is the dumbest shit I have ever read. you are aware that you can be a working mom and take time off to breastfeed... have you heard of maternity leave? or even just a break from working? biggest enemy working mothers? are you braindead lmfao

@Ox

I'm not sure I fully understand what Snow was trying to say. I'm still confused how it relates to the original point as well. So I didnt reply mostly because I didnt understand the argument being made.

@snow

@freemo @snow regardless of views on working moms, I fail to see how it relates. just seems like an attempt to hate on them during an irrelevant conversation

@Ox

I can see that, it does appear that way. Though english is not Snow's first language so I will be curious to hear their rebuttal...

Snow, do you feel all mothers who work are bad people for doing so or is something being lost in translation here?

@snow

@snow Ok I see the connection you were getting at. But like @Ox i disagree with you, and find the judgment of working moms a bit disgusting really.

Most working moms work out of necessity, some dont. Either way its very insensitive to attack them simply for working to feed their children.

@snow

Studies have shown that any benefit from drnking breaskmilk to the immune system is limited to the first few years of life and has no effect on the immunity in adulthood.

With that said what makes you think they cant just pump breast milk and have the stored milk for their child to drink when they are being watched by their dad?

@Ox

@Ox @snow @freemo Working mother intifāḍah! Inshallah we will have our women back home, pregnant, & barefoot!
