As a man I've been made slightly uncomfortable sometimes if a lady started breastfeeding in my view. My discomfort being needing to remain seated, if I became aroused, for fear of the girl, or her companions thinking I was perving on her. This however is my problem being a hotblooded male, and I would never expect a woman to starve a baby or feed it in a toilet for my sake.

And I think you will see if you read through every comment that a lot of people are agreeing with me. We are in the minority in this thread, but yes there are people that disagree with you. Does that mean they have issues? No
