Three days a month of paid leave? How long will it take for three quarters of Italian men to decide they’re trans-women?

I’m all for it. PMS is a leading cause of PTSD in a work environment.

Let’s just cut all the BS. This isn’t about menstrual cramp leave. Its just simply one more item in the laundry list of things that the state mandates that people can not work and get paid for. No different from mandating that people get paid for a full week of work but only have to work 4 days, or the infamous French 35 hour maximum work week. At the end of the day, if people aren’t productive, society gets poorer. There’s no way around that. So in the long run, all these “paid leave” laws simply make it worse for future generations who will be relatively more poor than if the current generation worked more.

Haven’t they heard that males and females are exactly the same? Differences are all in the mind and people can decide what they want to be. Women should just identify as a male during their menstrual time and go to work.

Will men be able to identify as a woman and get a certificate from a “medical specialist”?

To be honest there about 3 days a month you don’t want to be around an Italian woman, they can get down right brutal.

If a similar law were to pass in Ontario it would significantly change the current law, said Ido Katri, a Trudeau and Vanier scholar at the University of Toronto’s faculty of law.

“This would create a great imbalance of rights, between people who menstruate — a group that might include also people who do not identify as women — and those who do not, that would be hard to justify,” he said.

So, the two groups are not male / female, but rather those who menstruate and those who don't. I am beginning to worry that I am not going to be able relate in this new world order we have...

Italy's stock market has exploded since Trump took office.

This might turn that around.

I wish the accounts receivable person who sits in front of my office would take her “period” off. My days at work are much nicer without her.

OK, grant men the same 3 days of paid leave per month, or else it’s SEXIST. (Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals #4: “Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules.” Works both ways.)

grant women three days of paid leave every month

Can you split them up and take 3 Fridays off?

If I'm a man, can I identify as a woman and get in on this deal?
