I have seen my wife on the receiving end of the condescension and I think that is what most of the negativity in these posts is aimed at.
Basically as with every profession there are people that suck at their job and people who are really good and act with compassion.

Agreed but my experiences point to an attitude of condescension that comes from the people that have been driving this particular boat for many years now, the La Leche League. Of course, it's been 15 years since my youngest was born and perhaps they have righted that attitude by now, though their literature still seemed to have that underlying theme last I looked.
Though, the long term maternity nurses that double as Lactation Consultants seem to be spectacular example of the good side of this coin.
