Breastfeeding moms tell Facebook to suck it
Would you put a Boobie Beanie on your nursing baby?

Moms are staging nurse-ins in front of Facebook's offices worldwide to protest the social network's censorship of images on the site.

One woman, Sara Hanson, is milking this lactation fray for all it's worth with the Boobie Beanie, a hand-crocheted hat she invented that resembles a bare breast, that a baby can wear while nursing.

Reaction to the in-your-face accessory, which can be created in any skin or nipple tone, has been very positive in the mom-o-sphere -- "cute," "hilarious" and "genius" -- although @JizaZito tweets, "Behold, the 'boobie beanie'...While I am for BF, I see it as a mockery of our sacred temple."

Would you put a Boobie Beanie on your nursing baby?
