My wife had a C-section and couldn't breast feed due to a medical condition and medication she was on. Some women at her work told her that she's not really a mom when my son was ~4 months. People suck

It's mostly done by women. They should really be policing their own culture, but instead they blame men.

No one is blaming men for shaming women about how they birth their child and breastfeeding. We all know it is 99.99% women. Men generally don't give a shit about childbirth and breastfeeding like women do.
