Public Breastfeeding Encouraged in Toronto


Cafes in Toronto, Canada, will begin displaying decals in their windows to show that breastfeeding mothers are welcome.
For Leila Monib, a nursing mother, she said this a "good beginning" to eradicate negative views about women's breasts. "I want breastfeeding in public to be normalized, made more acceptable. Women's breasts are so sexualized. We're used to seeing them up on billboards and not seeing them in use," the 33-year-old said. "But when the baby cries, duty calls. I always say: 'Have breasts. Will use.'"
