Breastfeeding pictures and Facebook

Breastfeeding advocates around the country have been staging protests against Facebook over the removal of photos containing breastfeeding moms. Facebook says it only removes photos that have been flagged as inappropriate, and that with billions of photos uploaded every day, some mistakes are bound to be made. But the protesters want Facebook employees to be better trained at determining what is and isn't inappropriate. What do you think? Should breastfeeding photos be allowed to be posted on social media sites? Should Facebook do more to make sure they are not removed? Let us know your thoughts, and you could see your response on Eyewitness News First at Four! Also, get more on the story from ABC News.

These mothers are so dumb saying "breastfeeding is natural". Then its only right to say that its natural to master bait...isn't it? Do they also think a man should be able to post pictures containing his penis to social media?

As proud as i was to breastfeed my daughters, i would post no such pictures on the internet. The internet is a public place & nursing should be kept private.

Breast feeding is a natural phenomenon and not a fashion show?. Why should these photos are permitted to be posted in the first place. This doesn't make sense.

That's ridiculous! No one should even be posting things like that on facebook. I think everyone needs to take a step back and see facebook is a social media network, to reach out to others, not show them the day by day steps of your life.
