Members YRBB Posted January 25, 2016 Members Share Posted January 25, 2016 Oh, I agree! This would only be a story if it were Bell's Y&R in the early 90s LMAO. I was just responding to the comment that breastfeeding in public is absolutely not an issue in 2016 when it really, really, REALLY is a big deal (for some, I mean. I don't give a sh1t boo, whip it out and feed that breast nectar to the child!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Merp Posted January 25, 2016 Members Share Posted January 25, 2016 Wow, if I hadn't have read the posts here I'd have never known breastfeeding in public is still an issue. I breastfed all my kids and had my first kid in 1985. I threw a baby blanket over my shoulder, put the upper half of the kid under the blanket and fed them. I did it in restaurants, while out shopping, anywhere and everywhere and the majority of people weren't even aware of what I was doing. Considering there are beaches near me that have topless areas I'm surprised this is still an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted January 25, 2016 Members Share Posted January 25, 2016 I saw part of the breastfeeding scene and then FFed immediately as soon as Olivia started getting defensive and aggressive. First, if she is having a business meeting with the mayor then that is no place to bring your child. Second, this is a place of business, once again no place to bring your child. Does the hotel provide daycare facilities? With the baby epidemic on GH the last ten years I would think Nik might look into daycare as a way to save his company. The Mayor, I have no idea if this has been discussed on prior pages, but I found her shock white hair a bit distracting. My eyes were always fixated on her hair and it didn't work for me.

Members frequentsoapfan Posted January 25, 2016 Members Share Posted January 25, 2016 Its an annoying issue. I have no problem with a woman breastfeeding in public with her blanket if there's no bathroom or anywhere for her to go. Its the women who do it for attention like taking breastfeeding selfies during the college graduation ceremony, standing in the middle of the aisle in Target and just whipping it out, or during the prayer during the church service when they can excuse themselves to another area that annoy me.

Members Rileywasall Posted January 25, 2016 Members Share Posted January 25, 2016 Just because ratings are up (on ALL soaps, not just GH and likely because of the weather, etc) doesn't mean changes don't need to be made. Lighting/background music set the tone for the show and they're both TERRIBLE, much like OLTL towards the end of the show. That falls on FV, therefor we need another EP. Granted I'd take JP/SA over Carlivati any day, I still don't think they're a fit for GH. Sorry man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted January 25, 2016 Members Share Posted January 25, 2016 Sadly it is still an issue. I know of someone on Facebook who posted some stuff about breast feeding. Nothing graphic as in you don't see anything and some idiot reports it. Yet they'll keep posts that have pornographic pictures in it. It's idiotic. Most people that bitch about it have NO problem watching naked women on tv/or movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members KMan101 Posted January 25, 2016 Members Share Posted January 25, 2016 Larry was back today I'm already struggling to get through the episode. Tracy may not be enough to keep me interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members reallyhateskateonlost Posted January 25, 2016 Members Share Posted January 25, 2016 At least Curtis was on. Creepy Larry is back. He happens to be at the same place Tracy is.

Members Juliajms Posted January 27, 2016 Members Share Posted January 27, 2016 Sorry Q, I think you are wrong on this one. It is Olivia's place of business, so she can have her child there if she wants to. Women are gaining more power in the work places and challenging the rules men made up about what is professional. And let's face it, they are socially constructed rules made up by men. Breastfeeding (not bottle feeding breast milk) reduces the risk of colic and SIDs. Are women supposed to put their children at increased risk of intense pain and death to make the ignorant comfortable? I don't think so. I also don't think woman should have to stay cloistered at home just to please other people. If Olivia got a little assertive fighting for her rights, oh well. They are her rights under the law, which the mayor of all people should know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JONNYSBRO Posted January 27, 2016 Members Share Posted January 27, 2016 I love the proactive stories like Olivia breastfeeding. It's so current anf very debatable. Jean is bringing us those magic moments on the GH stage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted January 27, 2016 Members Share Posted January 27, 2016 I don't agree. Liv's place of business is irrelevant. The meeting could have been postponed until Olivia didn't have a kid latched to her tit. That's very distracting. This is just another FAIL by GH! They continue to suck at tackling social issues, even outdated ones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
