This went from who likes Yoohoo and Ovaltine to why boobies and breastmilk should be ok in society.
I have no clue as to what to comment.....

What is the stigma associated with adults? Did you mean the stigma adults associate with breasts? I'm sorry, I'm not trying to be snippy, I'm just confused by the phraseology of your statement.
In any case, I think the only real stigma to overcome is the general repulsion towards confronting human anatomy that most moral authorities have. But I already said that.
Regardless, I think it's really silly that we consider the boobies of an animal a non-taboo dairy resource, but the boobies of our own species a taboo one. Some people give out blood, sell hair, donate sperm. How bad could breastmilk really be?
Mind you, I'm not promoting this because I have a DESIRE for breastmilk. It's just a thought I've been having and I feel that it's a natural course to follow from the way science and commerce have traditionally collaborated.

Strangely, I would have to pass too.Ourchair is right. There is no reason why we shouldn't be drinking human milk. Yet, if it was presented to me, I would have to pass.
I know they aren't boobies. I'm being silly by trying to be colorful about it.Ultimate Houde said:The cow's udder ain't it's boobies, it's the nipples. They have pancake nips.
Yeah, I heard about that.Ultimate Houde said:Breastmilk, without the pasterization process, could be very deterimental for adults, because of antigens that may be presented within the breastmilk itself.
Well, since I am speaking of a commercial industry then it'd have to be a ridiculously expensive luxury good. Hey people will pay big money for the absolutely silliest things. Like caviar, for example, which are essentially just fish eggs.Ultimate Houde said:I vote for nay, the science of it seems impossible. It would have to be extremely expensive milk for it even to be plausible.
:twisted:Ultimate Houde said:Too produce enough consummable milk, we would need to 'milk' several hundred females in a rotating fashion, nevermind the health issues involving feeding them the correct diet so they could produce more milk.
Okay fine, I'll concede that as a "scientician" you've probably proven the impossibilities. But I still insist that on a cultural and social level, there is perhaps nothing wrong with it. It'd just be a matter of thinking of breastmilk with the same 'neutral' eyes we regard the present dairy industry.
And I'll concede that once people get around the social stigma that's associated with it, it would be a good alternative.
So, what some ice cream?
The sad thing is that a commercialized breastmilk industry is most likely to lead to a commodification of different kinds of breastmilk, because the human race is rather perverse like that.And I'll concede that once people get around the social stigma that's associated with it, it would be a good alternative.

It's like: "NIGGER MILK is better than CHINK MILK!" Why? "Because CHINKS eat some weird **** in their diet"
Or: "DRINK CHINK MILK... they eat all sorts of homeopathic weird stuff that guarantees virility and long life!"
*Sigh*

"Breast milk, you made my day-ayyy."You don't know what you're missing.
There is nothing better than the breast milk of a Cambodian Immigrant.
Only 100% Cambodian though.

We are offering a free room for a woman who is willing to provide breast milk for consumption to the household. We are an otherwise vegan house but have recently read A.O. Wilson's study of the benefits of human breast milk to all human beings of any age. This is not sexual. Neither appearance nor sexual preference are of any concern to us.
We are willing to accept one child into the house as well. We do not want to take breast milk away from a nursing child however. We also don't need gallons of breast milk but whatever you can muster; it is a nutritional supplement for members of the house who want to partake.
The room is 10'x 15' in a sunny house in Berkeley. There are 7 other people in the house and we live largely communally - shared food and house supplies. You must still pay for food, only rent is free. Reply to this posting and we will set up a time. Contact Dana.
I think the bigger shock here is why you are on the internet searching for breastmilk?
Wait---no.....that's not actually a shock.
Because my girlfriend won't give me any GODDAMNIT.I think the bigger shock here is why you are on the internet searching for breastmilk?
