I am no here to defend the original posting, but I think it is clear that it was intended to be a question and NOT an affirmation. As a moderator, I make choices on what information adds value to understanding health and wellness. I picked the research results of this study because offers information on benefits to women's health, it is not about taking "choice" away from women or whether "women must or should breastfeed".
If anyone reading the posting wishes to know more about the study I am sure reading the May issue of the scientific journal or contacting the lead researcher at the University of Pittsburgh is an option.
Kristin, I have no doubt that you know a lot about this subject, but many other women, including me, welcome new information about health and wellness. Otherwise, why are we here for? It is in acquiring new knowledge that women will become a stronger voice in deciding which research, treatments or drugs we will demand.
As a woman I do not want to read postings just about sex, orgasms, as these continue to put women in a limited place in society. So, let's allow women expand their knowledge by accessing information that has been published in reputable medical journals. I am sure many readers make choices based on information that gives them both sides. And despite all the information available, a choice can still not be perfect, but at least is one that minimizes harm to self or love ones.
