People have a hard time separating boobies from breasts. To me boobies are for fun and breasts are for feeding the baby. People in this country have such hangups about breastfeeding and it's silly. Maybe it's different for me because my wife gave birth almost 6 months ago.
People are also weird about how long babies should breast feed. All of my wife's friends are stopping it right at 6 months and switching to formula. This just doesn't make any sense to us. Babies will ween themselves when they are ready, in most other countries they will continue to partially breastfeed for 1-3 years. There is nothing wrong with it but it is really looked down on here. We'll let our baby decide when she's done with it.
-edit- 10 years is pretty extreme though
