Man divorces wife for breastfeeding, says it’s “incestuous”

Even though we live in the twenty-first century, there are still some people—often men—who have strange and antiquated views regarding marriage and women’s autonomy over their bodies.

A frightening conversation in which a husband accused his wife of having an extramarital affair because she was nursing their child was captured on camera by a netizen.

The ridiculousness of the circumstance provoked general dismay and mockery of the husband’s conceited and backward beliefs.

After being posted to Reddit, screenshots of a text exchange between the husband and wife were later shared on X, formerly known as Twitter, where they naturally caused a firestorm.

The husband texts his wife to begin the conversation, saying, “You’ve been breastfeeding? You have no idea how I f***ing feel about that,” she said, calling her decision to nurse their infant baby “disrespectful” to him.

He tells her he’s “done” when the wife, who is still in the hospital recovering after childbirth, tries to make a compromise by nursing their son out of sight.

The lady tells her husband that breastfeeding has nutritional advantages, but he says, “The benefit to where I’ll never be able to look at you the same way again.”

He goes on, “I think you’re a bad wife,” after that. You don’t seem to respect me, I think. I believe you have stolen my joy. I have numerous thoughts. I like the way your boobs look. I no longer appreciate your boobs because they’ve been in the mouth of another man.

It probably needs to be said again that the spouse is talking about his newborn kid, not a fully grown man. The husband responds, “He’s male,” when the wife brings this to his attention. as well as your son. To me, that renders it incestuous.

Several others shared their thoughts in the comments section of Reddit after screenshots of the strange interaction were shared there.

“Her boobs aren’t for his pleasure anymore, now that they’re doing what they’re intended for another man’s mouth to be on them,” a caustic comment was made by someone. Furthermore, formula and breastmilk are identical, as we all know. How dare she deny her spouse the pleasure of her body?

Another person said, “My God. What was the last thing I read? A b**d father who blames the mother and is envious of his newborn for being breastfed. What has become of this world? How sstain of a person must you be to think that way? Do they truly believe that women are just objects of sex? They are using breastfeeding as a justification for sexualizing and dehumanizing their own relationship.

The Reddit user who posted the tale clarified the situation by telling Bored Panda, “I think that our society still sexualizes breastfeeding, and this man just had an overly sexualized view of it.” The user is not the wife who was accused of incest by her own husband.

The woman also spoke about her own experiences, saying: “Returning to work after my child’s birth, my employer refused to accommodate my nursing schedule. They suggested supplementing with formula, and I think the husband took that mentality too far.”

Sharing further information from the wife’s personal page, the netizen revealed that the husband apparently also deemed bathing their sons after the age of two as incestuous. “He seems to have an overly sexualized view of things, perhaps even interpreting the Oedipus complex too seriously,” she said.

The internet is rife with stories of entitlement, but prioritizing one’s bizarre and possessive interests over a wife’s body in the presence of a newborn is particularly extreme. It only serves to highlight the ongoing struggle to dismantle outdated beliefs and promote respect for women’s autonomy and the freedom to do what they choose with their bodies.
