At the Breast Quotes

“If they [the mothers] use different vocabularies, they may share a postmodern feminist "body politics" - in this instance an awareness that maternal breastfeeding carries no inherent, "natural" meaning, that it is always located where historically specific, culturally articulated interests and power relations collide with the recalcitrance of the body.”
― Linda Blum, At the Breast: Ideologies of Breastfeeding and Motherhood in the Contemporary United States
