breastmilk and bodybuilding

in September 2013 Moms

I've been back to work for almost a week now and work in a predominately male field. I close my office a few times a day to pump and today one of my coworkers asked me how much I produce. I figured he was genuinely curious but I still thought it was a weird question. His reason for wanting to know through me off a bit. He is a body builder and has read that breastmilk is a great source of protein. He didn't outright ask me for any, but he did say he had a friend who purchased it from a bf mom. I've never heard this, but I don't doubt it is true. I politely excused myself from the conversation and walked away ...

    That's not just creepy, that's crossing a serious boundary. I would be upset.

    Well it is strange, but if I knew the coworker pretty well I would sell my breast milk to him haha. Why not help a friend out after all? ;)

    That's funny. My S/O is a bodybuilder and has never asked to have some of my breastmilk. Perhaps I should start selling mine at the gym lol

    Agreed, that is totally sleazy.

    Creepy and totally inappropriate for him to ask, let alone throw a subtle hint about wanting to drink it. Yuck.

    ...ew. Just Ew. if he asks again, say something like if you're going to give it to anyone, you'll give it to preemies that legitimately need it.
    What a creeper. Why didn't he just eat damn egg or something?

    I have actually heard of it and don't think it is crazy.  It is supposed to be the perfect balance between fat and protein, and it sells for about $3/oz.  It is inappropriate for him to subtly hint at wanting it, but perhaps he was just making conversation?
    Disclaimer:  I do not and would not sell my milk for manly vanity (or any other reason really, it is for my DD).

    The awkward turtle? You've never heard of it? He's there for when you have no words for an awkward situation.
