Question

Review the following two paragraphs and add a topic sentence separately to help the readers understand what the paragraphs are about. Also, color-code your topic sentence in blue.

1. In our society everything is used for personal attraction and social success and breast-feeding is supposed to spoil these. What might be tempting on a Cosmopolitan cover is looked down upon when the same part of the body is used for feeding (one might remember another episode in Seinfeld in which a scantly-clad friend of Elaine walks on the road only to lead Kramer and Jerry to a car accident). Many women even in this Feminist age still believe that breastfeeding does not have any health value for children and are worried that breastfeeding would only spoil their
attractiveness.


2. Some thinkers have argued that if men are mostly built to get financial security, women are designed for the birth and welfare of
children and thus breast-feeding is a
biological necessity. Gillian Bentley, a Royal Society research fellow at the UniversityCollege in London, England, argues that woman’s breasts were meant for feeding
babies and not for any romantic purpose. Even the books on motherhood do not suggest that breastfeeding is a personal right which has a social purpose and doing it in public is perfectly all right. In some states it is not legal to nurse a child in public, and law-makers fear that allowing this practice in
public would allow women with exhibitionist tendency to misuse the activity (Tamaro 145).
