Jasmine Sussex, a Victorian breastfeeding expert is being taken to the Queensland Civil and Administrative Tribunal for speaking out about the fact that only females can breastfeed their babies. Sussex made comments about males who take drugs to lactate, expressing her view that they should not be experimenting on children and that it is all part of a “dangerous fetish”.

Jasmine is being taken to court by a male who identifies as female and took drugs to induce lactation to feed his baby.

But Ms Sussex, who was sacked by the Australian Breastfeeding Association in 2021 after 15 years as a volunteer breastfeeding counsellor because she refused to use gender-neutral language, told the Saturday Herald Sun she “will not be silenced”.

“Breastfeeding belongs exclusively to mothers and our babies,” she said.

“We are the only humans who can make breast milk to nourish our babies.”

The Queensland male took the drugs when his wife was pregnant so he could also ‘breastfeed.’ He created a social media storm when he posted photos online of himself with his baby on his chest.

“For the past 6 weeks I have been taking a drug called domperidone to increase prolactin in an attempt to be able to produce breast milk so that I can have the experience of breastfeeding,” she wrote in a Facebook post.

The drug domperidone is traditionally an anti-nausea medication.

The backlash included comments from Ms Sussex, who labelled the practice cruel and unethical.

“This is Buckley’s delusional queer theory take on his experience “breastfeeding”, she wrote online.

In November last year, Ms Sussex received an email from the Queensland Human Rights Commission to advise her they were investigating a complaint from Ms Buckley alleging vilification.

“The complaint attempts to scrub from the public record my mainstream concerns and criticisms about male breastfeeding,” Ms Sussex said.

“I entirely reject the claim that my measured criticism of male breastfeeding incites hatred, serious contempt or severe ridicule towards him and other transwomen.”

The research about males chest feeding their babies via drug induced lactation is highly contentious and there is never an excuse to conduct experiments on babies or children for the sake of an adult’s feelings.
