I think the nature of the pressure matters, but certainly there are coercive and non vegan pressures on people who choose to breastfeed. It's gotta be free choice, which is a dicey prospect in an unfree society 😔

Thank you for understanding what I was getting at. I'm not vegan but I'm considering it. Some of the responses I've gotten make me feel like there isn't a lot of community support for new converts.
