Australian Breastfeeding Association: Jasmine Sussex claims she was sacked for saying word ‘MOTHER’ | Daily Mail Online

Jasmine Sussex (pictured) was fired from her volunteer counsellor position with the Australian Breastfeeding Association

The association has said emerging research suggests biological men can breastfeed, and have introduced a training booklet titled: Breastfeeding, Chestfeeding and Human Milk Feeding.

However, the mother-of-three, who has worked for 15 years advising mums on breastfeeding, argues there are only a ‘couple of cases’ worldwide of men producing nipple secretions and the unknown liquid is ‘not mother’s milk’.

‘ABA says we should support all parents who want to human milk their babies,’ Ms Sussex told Daily Mail Australia.

‘Natal males can take feminine hormones to grow breasts. But there is no evidence that any male induced milk is equivalent to mother’s milk.

Ms Sussex said the ABA has brought out training videos urging counsellors to support biological men to breastfeed, with one clip saying transgender women are often eager to do so.

‘I’m happy to support how people identify, but sex matters when it comes to birthing and breastfeeding,’ she said.

‘A [biological] man doesn’t have a right to breastfeed a baby, [that desire] it’s a psychological demand.

‘Men will never be able to breastfeed babies, and they need to stop trying.’

Ms Sussex said she was told by the ABA when she lost her position that counsellors are bound by code of ethics stating they will not discriminate on the basis of gender identity.

She is currently fighting to remain a part of the association and is waiting to find out if her membership will also be cancelled.

    Utterly diabolical that men should try to impose this sick fetish upon babies.

    How has the ABA become so detached from reality, that it actually encourages this perverted behaviour, without a thought for the welfare of helpless babies?

    These organisations are infiltrated by feminazis from academia and NGO’s, sponsored by globalists. As she states, it was only one of the state presidents who caused this furore against her, the rest were fine. It’s this infiltration that is eating away at our cultural and educational institutions, one by one. They are sick with mental illness to deny that breastfeeding is exclusive to mothers. Just say no, fight back, like Jasmine has.

      June please do some research. Feminists and feminism is not monolithic–all do not agree on every issue. Actual feminists and women’s rights advocates center and support women–biological females–not men who ‘identify’ as women. And it was a lesbian feminist, Janice Raymond, a professor at the Univ. of Mass, who warned of the dangers of transsexualism (since rebranded transgender) in her book, The Transsexual Empire, published in 1979. Lesbians and feminists have been calling out this gender madness for decades but then who listens to ‘hysterical’ women.
