why is donating blood considered a good thing, but ...?
donating breast milk is something mostly viewed with disdain or even outright disgust?
if i tell someone "i donate blood", pretty much the universal reaction is "oh really! wow! that's so great!"
if i tell someone "i donate breast milk", most reaction ranges from "uuuuh.... okay" through "why would you even want to!?" right on down to outright revulsion. rarely, someone will give uncondition...al approval, usually a breastfeeding parent (yes, i include dads who give whole-hearted support to their breastfeeding wives).
now, why IS that? it doesn't make sense. clearly, if my blood is good enough to save someone's life my breast milk certainly is - and yet, it's not the same.
how would you feel if you found out a woman you know was donating breast milk? what makes you feel that way?
desirai - in canada, we only have one human milk bank and the milk there is prescription only and largely unavailable to anyone but a premature infant in BC women's and children's hospitals. outside that area, parents have to pay, sometimes as much as $100/day to get it for their babies. in the states, there are MANY milk banks.
i donate informally through an organization called "Eats on Feets" because i simply cannot afford the cost of shipping frozen milk to BC from Ontario (they don't help pay for anything in any way but are happy to charge for it).

That's universal I look at people who donate blood in disgust. There are so many new technologies out there that doctors have proclaimed that works better than whole blood and is safer so to keep doing it the stone age way is a thing in the past plus the bible said don't partake in blood.
I think donating breast milk sounds disgusting but is more beneficial and clean. I heard a story not to long ago on a father that was dying of something and his daughter that just gave birth to her son started to freeze her milk for her father and he would water her breat milk down with cow milk and months later he was cured by her breast milk.
