- JoeAltmaier 11y agoThe 2nd. Add to that, "My body will change shape alarmingly. Strangers will have (often radical) unwelcome opinions on my activity. I'll feel like a milk cow. I'm using a part of my anatomy that up to now has been exclusively related to sexuality, to feed a child." Emotional reactions are real and cannot be argued away - people feel the way they feel. It takes cultural change to make it ok; and there are probably too many changes that have to happen together to succeed at that.
