There were radically exposed boobs all over the place, and mine, which were completely hidden by my one-piece, modest swimsuit and my baby's head, were the offending ones. "There are children here!" I was told.

I am pregnant for the first time and am planning on breastfeeding (because I can - my first three babies were all adopted without a lot of warning and 2 were foster babies first). I completely agree with you and was definitely more offended by the non breastfeeding pictures. The breastfeeding pictures were beatiful!
