A woman is making serious buzz on the internet after information emerged that she was breastfeeding her boyfriend every two hours.
Jennifer Mulford a woman from Atlanta sparked outrage on social media after publicly announcing that she quit her job to breastfeed her 36-year-old bodybuilder boyfriend.
Jennifer, while speaking to The Sun, claimed she wanted to start an 'Adult Breastfeeding Relationship' with her partner Brad Leeson after reading about the bond breastfeeding could create between two people.
Jennifer admitted to using dating sites and Craigslist to try and find a partner open to the practice, but eventually mentioned the idea to her former childhood sweetheart, Brad.
'It was like a light switched flicked in his head. I could tell from his voice that he was curious and excited,' she said, before opening up about the first time the pair tried it.
'At that moment I knew that I had a partner for life... we both wanted the same thing out of the relationship – a magical bond that only breastfeeding can achieve.'
'I’ve taken a break from my job because I want to devote everything to making this work,' she said, adding that she often uses a pump or her hand during the night.
She claims she is also taking a herbal pill and added flax seeds to her diet which are thought to help with milk supply.
Brad is said to be 'excited' about the health benefits as he is a 'gym buff'.
Jennifer said the feeding also helps Brad to let his 'guard down' behind closed doors and not have to worry about being an 'alpha male.'
She also said it's not something they would ever do in public as it is a 'very private' aspect of their lives.
But despite this, Jennifer and Brad's decision to publicly share their story has been slammed on social media, with many claiming the story is false, and others accusing Jennifer of 'sexualising' breastfeeding.
'It's idiots like these two that are making it difficult for breastfeeding mothers to do so publicly without shame or ridicule. They are only increasing the sexualisation of breastfeeding. There are NO medical benefits for adults to consume breast milk. Breast milk is for babies,' one woman wrote on Facebook.
'Each to their own but this is disgusting! People look at me funny when I say I am breastfeeding a two year old! And then people like this completely tarnishes the breastfeeding name!! Its NOT sexual. Its to nourish a baby!' Another agreed.
'I don't believe this, it sounds like an April Fool's joke. There's nothing about this that is okay,' one wrote.
Jennifer has posted a picture of the pair of them on her Facebook page, but whether or not the couple are joking around for a reaction or simply opening up about their private life remains to be seen.
