Woman asked to leave restaurant for breast feeding her baby. This happened after many of the male patrons asked to have what the baby was having.

When her infant daughter, Isabelle, started fussing in a restaurant one day, Erin Simons knew what she had to do to mollify her: Breastfeed.

After discreetly positioning the child, Simons was shocked when a waiter asked her to leave the dining room because some of the Ohio eatery's other patrons had expressed discomfort.

Only after she finished breastfeeding Isabelle, now 13 months, in the car, did Simons feel a flush of anger replace her first blush of embarrassment.

"There's no reason why you should feel embarrassed about feeding your child in the most healthy way there is," she says. "The breasts are so sexualized. It's just funny because when you get to nurse for a while, it's the most natural thing in the world and you never think about that anymore."

Now as a man I cannot fathom why we should have any problem whatsoever with a woman wanting to pull out her funbags in a public place. It is just not in my DNA to be bothered by seeing boobies.

Stupid restaurant!
