#14: The “Brelfie” Trend
Celebrities like Rihanna and Emily Ratajkowski recently shared candid breastfeeding moments and called it The “brelfie” trend. This movement is more than just a social media fad—it’s a powerful statement on motherhood in the digital age. While celebrating a natural act, these images have become a battleground for societal views on modesty, motherhood, and public decency.
The mixed reactions, ranging from support to shaming, highlight the persistent stigmatization of breastfeeding in public. As these celebrities use their platforms to challenge and redefine societal norms, it’s essential to recognize the “brelfie” not just as a trend but as a movement pushing for acceptance and understanding of a mother’s choice.
