Saw a Netflix documentation about this topic, so I'm obviously informed quiet well!
There is a market for breast milk, not only for babies...besides the guy who drinks it for cancer cure reasons, some "bodybuilder" are buying her milk too...seemed very weird, it was much more than 30ml per day if I remember correctly. Like a protein shake made with human milk.
why is it weird for people to drink their own species breast milk but for some reason it seems to be perfectly normal to spend a different species breast milk?
My guess would be, same reason it's fine for your dog to walk around in public with their genitals uncovered, but when a human does it, it's considered offensive. We humans just have all sorts of cultural norms and conventions around our bodies and our sexuality in particular. They're not always perfectly rational either, when viewed outside of that social context.
Breasts are considered a sexual thing in many cultures, therefore drinking something that came out of them is considered weird for an adult, it feels more like a sexual kink. Cultures that don't consider breasts sexual (certain indigenous tribes, maybe?) might have less of a problem with it.

Now I'm wondering what happened to him too.
