A new way for the ladies to make extra money

[flip]

I guess I just don't understand when PETA says it's painful for cows. Would it not be painful for women if it was done commercially? Wouldn't babies suffer as much emotional pain as calves? What about the poor beef cattle?

I have zero understanding of PETA's position either.  I think it's silly. It's not a commercially viable product as I see it.  It is the best food however for babies because of how it helps them to develop a strong immune system.

That has to be one of the most unbeliebable things I have heard, who would even want to eat if comming from a strangers breast, I would never purchase anything like that.    What will they think of next!!

[monrein]

I have a dead stranger's kidney in me and I've had some stranger blood too.

Interesting link to check out.

at least we found something interesting to ponder other than politics!

Hmm, I wonder if they would need any help collecting? 
A milk man of sorts

[monrein]

    Those breast pumps can be hell I've heard, so you're proposing a more hands on approach to collecting are you JP?

[twirl]

Joe Paul - would you leave the post of who loves IHD the most to be a jug's man?

don't women have to be pg to produce milk--
and that pumping is not a cool experience----- moooooooooing

what would Ben and Jerry name their new ice cream

Juicy Mama?

don't women have to be pg to produce milk--
 

no, women don't have to be pg to produce milk.
"...regular suckling on a woman's breast can elicit the production of milk via a neural reflex through production of prolactin."
try googling "wet nurse" or "prolactin"

Here's a weird one.  My aunt and uncle had a golden retriever, Taffy, who let their very newborn kitten, found during a neighbourhood walk, nurse on her all the time.  One day my aunt notices the kitten, Toque, licking wet white stuff from around his mouth.  Taffy had started lactating in response to the kitten and Toque always snuggled up with her until Taff died.

Too cute.

Cows keep producing milk because they are milked daily.

[monrein]

And they get mastitis too if milked improperly.   Gotta use the flat parts of the thumb and index fingers and never use the thumb knuckle.

I've milked a few cows in my days. My grandfather was a dairy farmer. The worst part was getting swatted in the head with the tail. Hopefully women won't do that.

 

[monrein]

    I hear the women have other tricks than the swat in the head with the tail.  Be very careful.

I guess cow's milk verses human milk is all about how we are conditioned from childhood.
Reminds me of a joke:

Man walked into a diner, the waitress says we have something new on the menu, cows tongue, it's very good. Would you like to try some?

Man replies, that's disgusting. I couldn't eat something that came out of a cows mouth.
Just give me a couple of fried eggs.

Hands on, yep. That milk has to be better, delivered  with a "loving touch"

Since milk is high in phosphorus, would a person who gives milk reduce their own phosphorus level? We may be onto something here. Just think of all the money that could be saved on phosphorus binders. I get ideas like this when I forget to take my meds.

[pelagia]

I can think of other human fluids that might also be high in phosphorus.  Maybe we should explore this for the guys too! 

[monrein]

   I was wondering when that would be brought up. 

[aharris2]

hey ladies what the hell is "pg", are you talking about being pregnant? if so, why not write the whole word? we're amongst family here...

pg vs pregnant


and since you're talking about mother's milk....how about some   

[kitkatz]

Oh Lordy Another breast man!

[twirl]

pg is fine to use
we all you abbreviated words
F  for f**k
S for S**t
H for Hell
P for pee
pg just takes less spelling
pregnant takes more spelling
