Rod Stewart Supports Breastfeeding

I don't know that La Leche League is going to be making Rod their poster boy anytime soon, but still - you gotta give him props for commitment to the cause:

(WARNING: if you are at all squeamish or have issues about aging rock stars infantilizing themselves while wearing pink, DO NOT CLICK THROUGH THE JUMP. Srsly.)

What? Cow's milk is for cows. Formula can't match the miracle brew that is breastmilk. Nursing promotes bonding. BREAST IS BEST, PEOPLE.

Now, excuse me while I go throw up in my mouth a little bit. All that pink is making me queasy.

(More pics here if you dare. My recommendation? Don't dare. You can't unsee this shit.)

Seriously? This is getting posted here? Is this somehow not normal marital behavior? I'm so sick of the media getting their hands on pictures like this and publishing them. This just isn't anyone's business.

Uh, Lisa, they're MAKING it other people's business by doing it OUTSIDE. In PUBLIC. Where there are OTHER PEOPLE.

[Her Bad Mother]

I dunno, Lisa - I'm happily married and I can't remember the last time my husband and I dressed in pink and demonstrated latch techniques on the deck of our yacht in a crowded harbor.

If they wanted to keep their business private, they'd do it in private.

I agree when you do sexual things in public than don't be surprised when other people catch it on film especially if you are a kooky celib who is dressed in pink doing what can only be described as engaging in something Freud would have a field day analyzing.

But the funniest part is that she seems so matter of fact about the whole thing. It doesn't exactly seem like an "intimate" moment- except for his mouth on her naked breast and all that.

The BIGGER issue here is that I'm pretty sure his shirt does NOT match his pants, the former being of the powder pink variety and the latter seeming more in the salmon family.

This may be a bit more PDA than other celebs engage in on a yacht. But as far as something Freudian, I don't agree. First, she's not currently lactating. Second, sucking on nips, especially beautiful ones, seems quite in the realm of normal for all couples I know. At least according to the wives. Third, it's Italy, people. Where breasts are not secret and taboo- they are shown on gameshows and beaches.

Although it truly eludes me why the paps would care in the slightest what El Rod is doing, I agree that this shit should be kept in private. Hey Rod, can I have some of that Pepto you dyed your ensemble with?

I think we should all sue the paps for this photo. My eyeballs are permanently damaged. If I can't breastfeed without this image in my head, I'm going to be pissed.

[The Muse]

They may be "doing it OUTSIDE. In PUBLIC. Where there are OTHER PEOPLE," but can you see how fuzzy that photo is? It generally means that someone had to zoom in a damn far bit to capture that photo. Which leads me to believe that the pap who caught this pic was probably hiding somewhere a good ways away, and Rod and his wifey thought they had a semblance of privacy.

Now, should celebs ever assume that they have any sort of privacy? Not really, as photos of them doing all sorts of things tend to show up, however, that doesn't mean we should always barge in on stuff like this.

J'pense que papie Rod avait soif.

En passant elle a une grosse paire de boule
