I really wish breastfeeding/chestfeeding/lactation/pumping/formula discourse was not so filled with parent-shaming on all sides. Not happy about another round of this.

Parents can't win. You get shit support for breastfeeding/chestfeeding up and down the medical establishment.
You get shit if you formula feed. You get shit if you don't formula feed.
You get shamed by SOMEONE no matter WHAT you do.

I've seen this a lot - These terms intended to include transmasculine people being assumed to relate to transsexual women. I've also seen "chestfeeding" be used as if it refers to induced lactation in trans women.

The question is are the people demanding the use of terms like "chestfeeding" and "pregnant person" the imperial essentialists or the freedom fighters? Or what about something more nuanced like "Latinx"? Spanish speakers don't seem to like "Latinx" because it's weird, but "Latine" might take off.
