@Arkandel Screw them. They will sell you to Somalians if it occurs to them. Get them before they get you.

@Luna Just like Dov Davidoff says...
I saw a girl outside -- had the biggest fake titties I've ever seen in my life. They were this big, with a half top with stuff written on the shirt, and I couldn't help but look at it. She got mad at me. She goes, 'What are you looking at?' I was like, 'Hey, if I stuff a balloon in my pants and paint a bulls eye on it, you might take a second freakin' peek, weirdo.'

Okay, chiming in as a mom!
I have never breastfed my kids in public. I'm just not personally comfortable with whipping out my boobs unless large quantities of alcohol are involved. That said, I have nothing against women that DO breastfeed in public. They should, however, expect that at least occasionally, people are going to glance at them. Its human nature. If you're looking around and your brain suddenly goes 'BOOB!', you're going to go for a second look, if only to verify. So yeah, A++ to that Starbucks barista, I'd have tipped her too.
As far as noisy kids in theaters go? I've been that mom that's had to drag a kid out of a movie because they were being squirmy and loud. Yeah, it sucks cause you paid money to see the movie, but you also took that risk by dragging your kid along. So fuck those parents that let their kids run wild in public, ANY public. Corral your goddamn crotchspawn or stay the fuck home like the other respectable parents do. I've lost count of the number of times I've had to leave a place because my ADHD kid is being... ADHD. Being in public doesn't give him the right to run around screaming anymore than it gives me the right to expect everyone else to just put up with it.
TLDR; Being anywhere in public, even a beach or park, is not license to allow your child(ren) to run hog wild, annoying the shit out of everyone else.

Totally agree. But if you sit there and stare at the boob, you should work on your self-control.

There's generally not much to see. I think it's less now days about people staring but more about women making a fuss and drawing attention. Most women I've seen can feed a baby without missing a beat or it even being remotely obvious. There are some people who need to make things a thing.

Can we try not to discourage hot women from wearing revealing clothing?
No one who matters is being done any favors by this.

Unpopular opinion time...some revealing clothing should just not be worn by some people. And furthermore, we're back to don't be trashy. Revealing clothing isn't always trashy but some sure as hell is.

I'll just talk about guys. Spandex-wearing guys that is, bicycle-riding ones. People who don't belong in tight-fitting athletic spandex-made clothes with brand names and logos on them. Come on, that's not an attractive look, and no one thinks you're an athlete because you're wearing $500 worth of athletic gear from SportChek.

@Arkandel old fat moms in animal print spandex.... Just saying

I knew a bicyclist who absolutely should not have worn spandex--not because he wasn't athletic (he was), but because his nickname seriously should have been Tripod. It was both intimidating and embarrassing.

My bad. I just like to hang free and the spandex kept it out of the spokes.

See, this gets filed under the same category as public boob for me. But I also appreciate the, uh, finer points of both sexes, so I suppose it's different. But it's anatomy. We shouldn't be so spooked by it.

Hi ho @Silver away!

Honestly, I think a lot of it comes from societal attitudes. Some folks don't wear a whole lot here when it gets hot because holy shit, it gets hot here.
Staring like a creeper is rude, regardless of what a person carries/packs/wears. Some people wear things for comfort, not to put goods on display.
Costume is not consent, although Con Creepers are their own special breed of awful (I guess clothes if you want the non-con version).

Medication that makes me Dory-brained. I can completely function, speak coherently, function in the moment until a- I get distracted, or b- the next moment when I have now forgotten what I just said five seconds ago.
