365. As a non-mother by choice and someone who flies occasionally,
I can tell you that I would much rather have the woman in the seat across the aisle breastfeeding her baby (yes, even a 2 year old) and possibly showing me *gasp* part of her breast than have to listen to a screaming, hungry toddler during take-off and landing. Visible breast vs. Screaming. Hmmm... Bring on the breast any day!

I would also like to say that I am heartily sick of the prudish attitudes in this country. It's a boob. Big deal. Janet Jackson didn't permanently scar our national psyche, and neither will a breastfeeding mother on a plane.
