I saw a video thumbnail about this but didn't click to learn more bc it was by ben shapiro, and I won't give him ANY of my attention. But I will say this: all humans have breasts no matter your sex or whether developed or undeveloped. When males get breast cancer, they still call it breast cancer because it's in the breast tissue. Cis males can also produce milk in some rare cases, and it's still been called breastfeeding. I just don't see "breast" in the medical sense as being gendered. Thoughts?
Is "Chestfeeding" a better term to use than "Breastfeeding"?

-
just call it breastfeeding
-
it's probably cause im used hearing the term breastfeeding, but chestfeeding sounds really weird
-
I think breastfeeding sounds more accurate.

Some people do see it as gendered. That "breasts" are female. This is false and a "who even cares" kind of thing, but for some reason we still have to appease baby boomer social perceptions (even if newer generations dgaf). Eventually, I think we'll move out of it. But for now, social conventions still hold sway, even if they're wrong.

Chestfeeding sounds more like the movie "Alien".

I breast fed and that’s what it is so breast feeding is the more appropriate name.
