A member asked:

Is being a little squeamish normal when some lady is nursing?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Possible: A lot of people feel awkward watching a mother breast feed her child in public. The breast is still primarily associated with sex. And, in this country, not a lot of women will breast feed in public. So, we are not accustomed to seeing it.
