THE BREAST IS YET TO COME!

In the day of same sex marriages, this business idea is absolutely brilliant! Go figure that it had to be started in France, but you can bet your ass this will make its way here to the U.S. Anyway, a Paris woman recently posted an offer on a French website to breast-feed babies of homosexual male couples, because obviously men cannot breast-feed, for 100 Euros a day. That's a $130 a day! The post stirred up some crazy media interest, as it should've, just weeks after a divisive same-sex marriage law was passed in France. 

The post, which the website said it was verified as genuine and legal, read: "I am a young mother in perfect health, a trained nurse of 29, and I am renting my breasts to milk-feed infants." I say this is a brilliant marketing idea! Gay men, who are married, will either have to adopt or look for a surrogate mother, right? Well, they will have to breast-feed eventually or use formula. Why not use the same process to find a surrogate mother to find a surrogate breast for breast-feeding? This woman is definitely onto something here! The offer, addressed to male homosexual couples who can marry legally in France since May, promises up to 10 breast-feeds a day. She is mobile and based near Paris. 

Alexander Woog of the e-loue website where the offer was posted said that his staff had contacted the person and had no doubt about her identity and the seriousness of the proposal, nor the legality of the service proposed. Woog went on to say, "Our legal advisers are sure of this. It's illegal in France to sell maternal milk but this is a person proposing a service, not selling the milk in flasks." 


France had recently joined more than a dozen countries to legalize marriage and adoption of children by same-sex couples. It does not, however, permit surrogacy or assisted reproduction for gay and lesbian couples. So much for that idea! The woman who posted the offer could not be reached or confirmed, but she has responded via the website that many couples have replied to her proposal. She said, "I've received more than a dozen requests, but only half of them were serious. The rest were from perverts."

Woog stated that his website, which was created in 2009 as a platform for users to offer or hire anything legal online, checks any posts that raise an eyebrow. The breast-feeding offer was the second major eye-catcher since the website was founded. The other was a user offering to rent out two goats as lawn-cutters. I think the breast-feeding offer is a little bit more legit. Here's the question, though; would you trust some stranger to come to your house to breast-feed your baby? It's not like she's coming in to walk your dog. Her bodily fluids will be going into your baby's mouth. Another question is how sanitary will it be if she has more than one customer? How many babies’ mouths were on that breast before yours? These are just some things to think about, but I still say a BRILLIANT idea!
