NSFW Time Magazine Cover Stirs Controversy

Postby Eli Katz » Thu May 10, 2012 6:10 pm

And it makes me wince.

This week's Time magazine cover features Jamie Lynne Grumet, a 26-year-old woman breastfeeding her three-year-old son. Grumet was one of four mothers photographed by Time for a cover story on "attachment parenting," an approach--outlined by 1992's "The Baby Book" by Dr. Bill Sears--that recommends extended breast-feeding, co-sleeping and "baby wearing." Time's cover line for the May 21 issue asks, "Are You Mom Enough?"


Are there a lot of mothers who did this? Are people trying to raise lifelong bed-wetters? Am I too unenlightened to understand this?

Is this why a New York court ruled that watching child porn is legal?

I'm ready to become a cultural conservative.

I knew a brit who did this until her kid was like 6 or 7 years old. Now I'm no expert but once a child can ask for it by name I would think it's time to stop.

Eeck. I have no idea what you're talking about and please don't explain.

I was kidding, BTW.

I don't know how I feel about the issue, but after looking at that magazine cover, I find myself salivating and smacking my lips uncontrollably ...

That was the first thing I thought of when I saw that picture above and exactly that.

Shit's kinda weird. People are always doing weird shit and then crapping out some science to argue that it's beneficial.

All I gotta say is, if I gotta stand in line behind a bitch's 7 year old to do some titty-licking, then that little nigga can do other grown-up shit, like getting a job and paying some taxes. You had your shot at titty, kid. Ain't fair to keep hogging that shit.
