Miranda Kerr breastfeeding photo

Sorry if this is in the wrong spot, mods.

I was listening to the radio earlier and the DJ made the comment that Miranda Kerr had released a photo of her baby and he was so cute, yada yada.

He then went on to say that it was quite a "raunchy" shot because she was breastfeeding him.

WTF???

When is this society going to learn that breastfeeding is natural and NOT SEXUAL? Fark me. Stupid twat.


FWIW - I checked out the photo, it is beautiful and natural and she looks radiant. There is nothing raunchy about it.

Seriously? What kind of person is he to think that that is raunchy? Sure, there's some flesh there but she is so much more clothed than many girls I see on a Saturday night! She looks beautiful and happy, the whole thing looks incredibly natural and I love that she's released this pic

Oh, it's such a beautiful photo, she looks like she's in bliss.

Raunchy? I don't think so. :shakehead: I hope I don't look "raunchy" when I'm breastfeeding :lol:

I think the pic is gorgeous - hardly raunchy.

I remember when she was pregnant I was listening to the radio and the DJ (a girl) was talking to some random ring-in. Convo was something like this:

DJ: So do you like Miranda Kerr?

Random guy: Oh yeah

DJ: If there's one thing you'd change about her what would it be?

Random guy: Oh, probably bigger boobs..

DJ: Well lucky for you, now that she's pregnant her boobs are HUGE! all you lucky men out there!

I just about drove into the radio station and smacked this woman in the face. When did such a wonderful thing as being pregnant turn into "check out the size of her boobs guys!" I mean seriously....

I think the pic is so beautiful! Some people just dont get it. As for the guys comment about making her boobs bigger, I think she already had a nice decent pair of boobs even before pregnancy!! Whats with some men?

i love the pic so much! she looks dreamy and radiant. i'm so jealous, i wanna be breastfeeding a nb again!

It's a beautiful photo. :rolleyes: Err at 'raunchy'. People are silly sometimes.

typical male

I think the photo looks beautiful, if only I looked so radiant and relaxed feeding my newborn in those first few weeks! We were all thumbs fumbling about here in the beginning! Got it sorted now though! :)

I don't know about "typical." My DH forwarded me the news article and his heading was "great to see a positive breastfeeding and natural birth story in the media."

She looked so serene and gorgeous, beautiful photo. Bub is very cute too!

Didn't look raunchy at all :D

Beautiful photo!

I don't understand anyone thinking it was raunchy though, gross!! If you think breastfeeding is raunchy you're sick in the head IMO.

lol, I hope I don't look raunchy when BFing... Quick ladies, let's all go to sexpo and get our BF boobs out :lol: Maybe they might make a new stand this year? :p

ETA: That was in sarcastic tone JIC anyone misinterprets

If you complain in writing about the content of the remark being offensive, the station manager has to reply within however many days under their code of practice. I got an offensive promo pulled off air last year by doing this.

Yeah, what a shame that they had to spin it like that. There's always someone though, as soon as a boob is out of a top, that feels the need to sexualise it.
I am quite in awe of her beauty. I have posted before that I think she is the most amazing-looking person. That photo is of course no exception.

I guess I was more shocked and amazed that he could be so stupid (for want of a better word, I don't mean to be derogatory). I just thought there was a wonderful opportunity for him to comment on the positives of BF and instead he used a silly word. It's people like that that made me bf DD in the backseat of the car, rather than sit out in the open at a cafe. I didn't have a thick skin to withstand the stares. Silly man!!!!

I agree with you all, she is beautiful, if I could just have one ounce of that beauty.....oh boy.

It's a lovely picture. Jsut a shame we can't really see the baby with his face smooshed into her boob :)

I agree - a great photo - she should send it to the ABA :)

I personally think the shot of Miranda and baby was beautiful. It appeared she was in the comfort of her own home.

As soon as there is a bit of boob *some* males tend to go a little silly. Some dont even need to see a naked / semi naked boob, some just see cleavage! I think the raunchy comments were a bit OTT, its a baby feeding - do you find it raunchy when your wife spoon feeds? LOL, dont think soooo .....

I wondered aloud to DH tonight whether the DJ was turned on by cows feeding their calves.....:ROFL:

I just mentioned this topic to DP and he was quite disgusted by the comment. His exact words were "What a D--khead!"

A beautiful photo! I love it!

Such a wonderful photo! I love it too. :heartbeat:

What a gorgeous photo. Little Flynn looks like he is loving his tucker!! Good on her for getting it out there and helping make breast feeding not taboo!!! WooHoo!!!

There is nothing raunchy or sexually epxlicit about this photo. She's breastfeeding her baby in bed.

Oh wait, hang on ... Miranda Kerr, bare breasts and bed. Of course, it must be raunchy.
(sarcasm ;))

that photo is amazing. she looks so comfortable and relaxed with her new baby.
what a stupid ignorant man to say that it is raunchy. stop thinking with your ***k you stupid man!!!!

I think it is a beautiful natural photo!
Nothing sexual about it :rolleyes:

Good on her I say. Raunchy is definatley not the word I would use for the pic.
Content would be how I describe the pic.

I think its a gorgeous pic, and good on her for posting it pic! :clap:
:rolleyes: its sooooo not raunchy!! Lol

I think it's a gorgeous photo!

I certainly wish I looked that stunning while bf! Definitely not raunchy - just a gorgeous moment captured on camera.

Here was I thinking that by her putting it "out there" that maybe, just maybe it might help "normalise" BFing... well MY BAD huh! :rolleyes: why can't it just be NORMAL.... cos it's not from a cow? BLAH!

Oh and I have only glimpsed the photo on the news break before but what I saw looked gorgeous!

It is an absolutely gorgeous photo, her baby boy looks so content and happy.... and so does she. And of course she looks every bit as gorgeous as she always does :)

It's a great photo!!! Good on her I say!

As the OP said, when will society see BF as natural and normal..?? And not relating to anything sexual??!!

OOO I meant to say earlier! At least the news didn't censor it! So why the hell do they pull the pics of women BFing on FB down?

I wish I could look so awesome bfing most of the time I look like a hot sweaty mess lol I think it's beautiful and I've had my bfing pic on fb for months and it's still there :) but I think it's coz all my friends are really my friends he he

I'm sure all you lovely ladies look that stunning while breastfeeding, its a beautiful thing to see a mumma feeding her bubba. I hope it does help to normalise breastfeeding, and in particular in public, good on her for releasing that photo of all photos I'm sure she has.

Every year, ABA puts out a breastfeeding calendar (i had it on my kitchen wall the last few years, seeing the pics each morning, spurred me on, to keep breastfeeding), and every month has a different photo, that photo of MK would be lovely for one of 2012's months.

i can't throw out those ABA calendars, i found the photos inspirational, esp when i had doubts about bf-ing (usually when i copped ignorant comments about bf-ing past five months).

i never thought i would find "strength" in calendar photos, but i did, and it really helped. (along with all the positive encouragement i got from my BB community too of course).

And CRAZY LADY you're right, the news didn't sensor the photo (no need to anyhoo) so shy iss FB so fuddy duddy about same sort of photos?

MK looks like a happy contented new mum, good for her.

I think its a beautiful photo, a lovely newborn moment. There is absolutely nothing "raunchy" or sexual about breastfeeding.

i saw the photo too and i though good on her for putting out a photo like that, but at the same time i thought, i wonder how long it will be before some idiot makes a comment about it being inaporpriate or something!
