Those that strike will just be proving that they aren’t essential to the work place. I’m guessing a lot will be brainless college snowflakes who don’t have a job or other women who really don’t work. Or, government workers, many, if not most, we know could probably quit and not be missed.

“How about a general strike by men, including the garbage collectors, the police, and the army?”

Garbage has been done, and the army can’t strike.

But wow, haven’t you been reading about the police strike in Brazil?

Get with the program, sister.....in this day and age, a man with a deep voice, a hairy chest, and male genitals can declare himself to be a woman, simply because he feels like a woman inside. But a real woman can only be considered a woman if she votes for the Democrats.

Just ask the ladies of “The View” or any Hollywood actress, they’ll set you straight.

So, the men will have to do the work of the women, and at last the work will be done
