Suck This Facebook

I don't think the young owners of Facebook knew who they were messing with when they chose to just mess with a bunch of lactating moms. This generation of moms ain't sitting around eating bon bons. We are outspoken and loud, we are proud of ourselves, and we can spread havoc all over the Internet faster than you can say boo.

So what did they do? According to an Australian paper they removed images of breastfeeding mums and banned others for posting "obscene content".

So what did mothers all over the globe do? What they always do. Fight back. Remember when a breastfeeding mother was kicked off a plane last year in VT? Withing a day mothers all over the country organized a country wide protest against the airline via the Internet. This time it is against Facebook.

The League of Maternal Justice
is one blog who is speaking up and spreading the news. They are urging people to delete their facebook account and tell them why, then blog about it and add one of the Facebook Sucks buttons they made to your blog.

You underestimated a large and powerful online population Facebook. Shame on you.

  Life is crazy but wonderful.

Good for them. We need to realize that when any group works together we can accomplish a lot.
