I don't have a problem with public breastfeeding. Truthfully, I'd much rather deal with that than a screaming infant. It can certainly be awkward when the person next to you begins shifting clothing to begin breastfeeding, but negative responses to these things are socially conditioned into us and far more unnatural that what we are viewing.

Sorry but this is just ridiculous. So if she was pouring cows bodily fluids down the sink, and washing out a glass, youd be fine with it?
This is why cow's milk says 'Pasteurized' on the label. Part of my workplace training went heavily into biological contaminants, and breast milk was indeed covered as a potential source. The simple fact is that any body fluid can transmit disease.
That said, I've always thought it rather silly to be deathly afraid of what's inside of other people. It's sensible to minimize the risks you can control, but even so, we are most definitely going to die despite this at some point. Better to live with a bit less stress and worry more about what we choose to do with our own lives.
