An Atlanta woman says sheโs taken time off from her job as a bartender to breastfeed her boyfriend every two hours in an attempt to create โa magical bond that only breastfeeding can achieve.โ
Jennifer Mulfordโs arrangement with 36-year-old boyfriend Bread Leeson isnโt unique, according to the Sun, and itโs part of whatโs known as an adult breastfeeding relationship (ABR). Sex Within Marriage contains a whole page dedicated to the practice which says men โreport feeling calmed and soothedโ by breastfeeding, and says it โseems to promote bonding in the relationship.โ
Mulford said she wasnโt familiar with ABR until she stumbled across it online.
โWhen I read about the bond breastfeeding could create between two people, I was envious,โ she told the Sun. โI have always enjoyed my breasts being touched during sex more than anything else, so I knew I would enjoy it.โ
She searched online to find a partner who was looking to start an ABR relationship, according to the newspaper, but struck out with personal ads, profiles on dating sites and even posts on Craigslist. Thatโs when she began speaking to Leeson, an ex-boyfriend from her school days.
โWe were talking and Brad told me he had a thing for big-breasted women, and that size had always been a factor in his relationships,โ Mulford said. โI thought it was the perfect time to bring up adult breastfeeding โ and see if heโd be interested.โ
It was โlike a light switch flicked in [Leesonโs] head,โ Mulford said. Before long, Leeson was doing his own research on ABR.
โAt that moment I knew that I had a partner for life,โ Mulford said. โWe both wanted the same thing out of the relationship โ a magical bond that only breastfeeding can achieve.โ
Mulford said itโs been 20 years since she gave birth and last breastfed, and said the process involves pumping and dry feeding to get her body to begin producing milk.
In a 2012 Reddit โAsk Me Anythingโ thread, a woman in an adult breastfeeding relationship answered usersโ curious questions, and insisted the practice is โnot infantilism.โ The woman, posting under the online handle โsassymilkmaid,โ explained that โitโs both sexual and emotionalโ for her boyfriend.
โTo each their own,โ she wrote, โbut there are far stranger fetishes out there.โ
