mike catherwood and lacey schwimmer 300x210 DWTS Lacey Schwimmer Tweets About Breastfeeding, Offends MomsLacey Schwimmer is causing controversy today!  The Dancing with the Stars dancer Tweeted about breastfeeding this afternoon, causing an immediate backlash from moms and breastfeeding advocates on Twitter!

Schwimmer spilled her feelings about breastfeeding on Twitter:

“Women I cannot urge how gross it is to breast feed your child in a restaurant, I not [sic] longer have an appetite!”

The Twitter universe immediately responded with complaints about her Tweet. Schwimmer then deleted her Tweet and tried to make an apology.

Note to Lacey:  Your Dancing with the Stars gig is a pretty good job.  If you want to keep your job, it’s a good idea not to offend MOTHERS and WOMEN, so I’d steer clear of controversial topics like breastfeeding.  Since moms make up a good portion of the DWTS audience, you might want to rethink your over sharing on Twitter!

Can she even speak/write in English? Her opinion is as illiterate as it is stupid.
