Westlake- Lactation and lacy lingerie were the subjects of a national nurse-in Saturday as breast-feeding mothers across the country let their kids chug-a-lug in front of Victoria's Secret stores.
Fifteen mothers armed with hungry babies gathered on the sidewalk outside the Crocker Park Victoria's Secret store in Westlake where scantily clad mannequins seemed delighted by the peaceful, half-hour demonstration.
"It's kind of ironic that Victoria's Secret, which plasters breasts everywhere, is offended at seeing breasts used for their intended purpose," said Anna Mauser-Martinez, who organized the local nurse-in and volunteered that she happened to be wearing a pair of Victoria's Secret underwear.
Victoria's Secret - owned by Columbus-based Limited Brands Inc. - became the target of breast-feeders when two nursing mothers in Massachusetts and Wisconsin said they were hassled last month by store employees. A call to Victoria Secret's corporate headquarters for comment was not returned Saturday. Last June, Ohio legislators legalized breast-feeding in public places.
