Ofcom have received several complaints after the controversial documentary "Breastfeeding My Boyfriend" aired on Channel Four recently.

The show introduces viewers to couples like Lana Michaels and her partner Shawn who feel that adult breastfeeding helps them to connect on an even deeper level. 

Since it aired on Channel Four, the show has received over a hundred official complaints, with some people complaining about the noise couples made when breastfeeding. 

It was hoped that the documentary would help to "shake the taboo" when it comes to the issue of adult breastfeeding. 

‘It’s completely different [to breastfeeding in public]. It’s just a normal way of connecting with the other person when we grow up", Shawn claimed. 

He also added, ‘When we grow up we explore sex and when we explore sex there are many other ways of connecting with another person".

‘Breastfeeding between adults creates a really strong bond that helps an understanding of the other person and feel a deeper love because you’re not only exchanging the milk but getting the energy that comes from the other person". 

Lana Michaels said, "Women’s’ breasts have always been sexual, men have always like women’s breasts, it’s always been the case. You can compare it to feet – a lot of people like feet and have feet fetishes which is way bigger than breastfeeding but we don’t go around hiding our feet and not wearing sandals".
