Christal Sankar Professor Boyd English 1301 June 27, 2020 Revealing What is Under the Cover Societal perception and discriminating outdated cultures have burdened women with so many issues, thus making them fail to conduct their daily activities effectively and efficiently. Globally, there are different oppressive ways that many societies dictate to women, making them feel less important than the other opposite gender. Whom do such dictations benefit? What impact do they have on the oppressed gender? Could that be why many men and women view breasts as just sexual objects but not serving the essential purpose of nursing the babies? Society should repetitively blame women for breastfeeding in public, but they should support them since the neonates periodically need to breastfeed. Women are capable of succeeding in different roles they are undertaking within the economy, just like men; thus, society should not enact laws or rules underestimating their potential (Dicks 4). Breastfeeding is vital to babies; thus, public breastfeeding should be allowed because of various reasons as stated below. Breastfeeding is a need that is available for a baby whenever an infant is hungry. The newborn needs to feed every hour, and since mothers may be having different duties to handle, which would not allow her to go to a nursing or private room to breastfeed their children, breastfeeding is public might not be optional. Besides, infants should breastfeed whenever they are hungry because human milk improves the infant's resistance to infections. Since the entire nations worldwide are putting strategies that

ensures infants mortality rate is lowered, public breastfeeding should be allowed because failure to that they would be reducing the newborns' fighting ability (Parker 16). Thus, encouraging mothers to breastfeed their babies on hourly intervals should be embraced by all, whether in public or private places. Alternatively, according to Haneline (15), women are great at multitasking; so, they can breastfeed their babies while running other duties that do not require mobility. Therefore, encouraging them to breastfeed in public would mean that they are not quarantined in required rooms and they can interact freely with other people. Socialization and interaction are crucial for every person; so, breastfeeding in public paves the way for an effective strategy of recovering from trauma, and sleepless nights they might have endured. Breastfeeding mothers might acquire unique skills on how to care for their young ones from their fellow women with higher practical experiences of nursing the newborns. The new mothers may strictly acquire such strategies while breastfeeding in public; thus, sensitive society should encourage public breastfeeding. Criticism demoralizes individuals in conducting specific crucial exercises like breastfeeding. It is quite damaging to the newborns because they lack fairly warm milk, which create their metabolic reactions. According to the World Health Organization, neonatal guidelines, consistent and timely breastfeeding of the newborns should take at least six months; thus, the environment should motivate the mothers in meeting that target. Breastfeeding in public is an essential and effective understanding of different societal perceptions, which views it as unthinkable since such thoughts are just oppressive tools to women. Breastfeeding is beneficial in giving the infants credible resistance against many forms of illnesses,

and ensuring good health. The strong resistance for infants' bodies would result in minimal illnesses, and lowering the medical bills for them. Hence, effective sensitization is mandatory for thoughtless individuals who provokes women breastfeeding in public instead of appealing and applauding their courage (Hauck et al. 17). Excessive medical bills to infants whose immunity has been suppressed by infections lower the living standards for a community, consequently, encouraging mothers to breastfeed in public is not an option. Furthermore, breastfeeding in public should be embraced by all the residents in the United States since it is legal for the entire fifty states. The equality law enacted in 2010 makes it illegal for people who might want to stop mothers' from breastfeeding in public brought a high level of fairness. If people, adults, can take their meals openly in public, are babies not human? Taking of highly nutritious meals in good time helps our bodies perform metabolic results effectively; so, breastfeeding children at least an hourly interval is mandatory. Good parenting involves a holistic approach towards putting unique measures by each individual to break barriers on social norms, which may harmfully affect the infants and maybe increase their mortality rate (Dicks 10). Erasing policies that underestimate the contribution of women in society would encourage them to easy breastfeed in public even if there are hostile arguments and criticism from some individuals. The heterosexual men typically view breasts as sexually attractive objects, thus making the society suggest that public breastfeeding is illegal since they bring lust. Particularly societal members, especially the family and relationship councilors, indicate that the exposure of breasts in public has contributed to numerous break-ups

in marriages since men get attracted to new mothers exposing their breasts. Therefore, this group in society suggests that if mothers are to breastfeed in public, they should cover their breasts with a light cloth to avoid attracting the heterosexual men. However, heterosexuality in society is not brought by simply looking at certain body organs like breasts but by the sexually immoral nature of such individuals. Also, reducing the sexual immorality in a society could be perfected by the teaching of moral values and different psychological problems, which might be brought by unfairness in marriages and relationships. Children have the right to live in a conducive environment while breastfeeding (Whiley et al. 12). Therefore, covering them with a light cloth may result in suffocation; thus, such a tendency should never be tolerated in a sensitive society. Exposure of breasts during breastfeeding is not a strategy for attracting men, but the major aim is just nursing the newborns. Still, exposing breasts by ladies who are not breastfeeding shows a high level of sexual immorality and nudity in Christian society. Conclusion, if women fail to obtain necessary support from society and caregivers, it would be extremely difficult for them to breastfeed in public because of a lack of awareness and insufficient knowledge about their rights and that of their children. People have the right to eat as well as living healthy lives through taking nutritious meals and children are included. Therefore setting up or embracing societal norms that demoralize mothers' breastfeeding in public should never be tolerated because children have the right to be fed at least on hourly intervals regardless of where they are. We know that adults would not like taking their meals from toilets,

bathrooms, or even isolated areas, so why should society embrace norms isolating women to designated areas while breastfeeding. Finally, we should learn to help each other and initiate policies that improve our living standards, and women should never be undermined but supported.
