The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently decided that men can breastfeed babies. According to the CDC, men can take powerful drugs, lactate, and “chest feed.” This is the same agency that warns women not to smoke while breastfeeding.
The CDC’s website says, “CDC is the nation’s leading science-based, data-driven, service organization that protects the public’s health.” In some way, apparently, the CDC serves to provide scientific solutions to public health problems.
As I read this, two questions shook me from my revulsion. First, for what is men breastfeeding a “science-based, data-driven” solution? And second, as a federal agency and service organization, whose interests do this latest abomination serve?
