In fanfic, breast feeding can be friendly to fans in the sense that it adds depth to the characters. If a character is shown as a new mother who breastfeeds, it can show her strength, self - lessness and the bond she has with her baby. This can make the character more relatable and multi - dimensional, which is something that many fans appreciate.
In whales, calves are born and immediately start to breast - feed. Whale milk is very rich to support the rapid growth of the large calves. The mother whale has special mammary glands and the calf has to learn to position itself correctly to feed. This is a crucial part of the life cycle of whales and an amazing example of nature's design for the care of the young.
The potential problems are numerous. Firstly, from an ethical perspective, it violates the privacy and boundaries associated with breastfeeding. It also may have a negative impact on the perception of the fanfic community. Since fanfic is often shared among a wide range of people, including minors in some cases, this type of content can be considered inappropriate. Moreover, it doesn't seem to have any positive contribution to the fanfic genre as a whole. It doesn't enhance the exploration of characters or the development of interesting storylines. Instead, it just creates discomfort and controversy.
In most cultures, breast - feeding is associated with infants and mothers. However, there might be some very rare and perhaps symbolic or mythological stories in certain indigenous cultures. But generally, this is not a common theme. Most cultures have taboos or norms that would make the idea of an old man being breast - fed seem very strange.
In bats, the mother bat will hold the baby bat close while it breast - feeds. Bats are unique as they are the only flying mammals. The mother's milk provides the necessary nutrients for the baby bat to grow strong enough to start flying. The baby bat depends on the mother's milk for a significant period until it can hunt insects on its own. It's an interesting example of how breast - feeding in the animal world is adapted to different species' needs.
It is not an appropriate theme at all. Breastfeeding is a very private and natural act between a mother and her own child. Using it in a context of 'random kid' in fanfic can be seen as violating boundaries and can be very uncomfortable and unethical.
Another way is to use it to further character development. Maybe the character who breastfeeds is facing some challenges in her life, and this act of breast feeding gives her the strength or motivation to overcome those challenges. This way, it becomes an important and fan - friendly element in the fanfic as it ties into the overall story arc.
There was a mom who was initially worried about breast - feeding because she had a low milk supply at the start. But she didn't give up. She worked with a lactation consultant, ate the right foods, and kept trying. Eventually, her milk supply increased, and she was able to breast - feed her baby for a year. It was a story of perseverance and the strong bond between mother and child through breast - feeding.
Most of such stories are fictional. In a normal family and social context, breast - feeding is mainly for infants. This kind of abnormal situation goes against the normal physiological and ethical norms.
It's inappropriate. Breast - feeding is a maternal function for the baby's growth and development. A husband is an adult and doesn't need breast - feeding in the traditional sense. It also challenges our traditional values and ethics.
