Strollerderby Playdate: Man Boobs Are the new Black

Last week, Sarah wrote something or other about boobs -- and all hell broke lose. Turns out some people have a thing against seeing boobs in public -- especially when they're attached to children's mouths. I don't know who these people are, but I'm surprised they could find a keyboard and an Internet connection under that big rock.

In support of a women's right to breastfeed wherever and however they please, a bunch of bloggy moms started showing off their assets. And then something amazing happened: So did dads. For a few days, man boobs ruled the Internet. Plump, doughy, hairy man boobs. Minus the milk part, of course. 

So as a tribute to the best in fatherhood, I'll offer the best in man boobs -- blog style.

Karl at Secondhand Tryptophan got it started with a shot of his own. As a reward, the parenting world is waking up the image of your boobs right. now. 

OK, Karl was the only one I could find. Men are wimps. Do you know how difficult it is to find blogs with the words "man boobs" in them -- well, non-porn blogs? Still, I thought Karl deserved a few more words of praise.

So to keep this playdate rolling, I'm switching topics. Here are a few more of my favorite daily reads. Make sure to check them out. These guys, and moms, rock.

AdventureDad always has an interesting, and international, take on parenting. 

Chicky Chicky Baby is too good to sum up in one sentence. Check her out. Go on.

I Hate Snaps is green. And funny. And he's got big, meaty fingers.

I'm also a big fan of NIP (nursing in public) and don't get how it can be SUCH a big deal.

Luckily my experiences have all been positive... friendly smiles and chatty moms and whatnot.  My heart aches for anyone given grief for it.  I think it goes beyond a mom's right to nurse.  It is the BABY'S right to eat when and where he needs to.  People seem to forget that that baby is a human with all the rights us upright adults have.

Another fun blog you can check out is http://kate2kids.blogspot.com.  She's really funny and lives an insanely interesting life.  And she's my friend.  :)

I love the man boobs! Here's an idea: what if men offered their man boobs to their babies out in public - as substitutes for pacifiers. Maybe then the public would have a change of heart.

Man boobs are Hawt.  Especially when they're being used to show their solidarity for the lactating ladies.

Thanks for the shout-out, again.  :)
