GH – I suggest you go back and reread what you wrote in your first post. You wrote something there that is completely different from what you are writing here.

You seem to be confusing two different issues here. As SYAG pointed out, the two issues are:

1. Is it a problem for women to nurse in public without trying to cover themselves?
2. Is it a problem for women to nurse in public even if they are trying to cover themselves?

All of the posters here (unless I missed a post somewhere) who were in the opposition only referred to women who nurse without trying to cover themselves. No one in the opposition discussed the second issue (unless I missed a post somewhere).

If you do in fact agree that women who nurse in public should try to cover themselves, then you are not disagreeing with those posters, and you made a mistake in the way you phrased things in your first post.

You wrote there that it is the women’s CHOICE if she wants to try to nurse tzniusly, and that no one should be bothered by it. Personally, I found that statement offensive. People are not allowed to do whatever they want to and tell others that it shouldn’t bother them. We do have a Torah and it does set guidelines for behavior and people are not allowed to just do whatever they want to.

It sounds now like that is not what you meant and you didn’t realize the implication of your words. That is okay – that happens to people all the time. But if that is the case, then please clarify that that was not what you meant and that you take back your words in that post.

On the other hand, if that was what you meant, then what you have written in your last two posts was not an accurate expression of your opinion, so then you should take back what you wrote there.
