If so, it's time to be done with unions!!!!!!!!!

Oh, Good God. Give me a BREAK.
Okay, as a male, can I have "My nuts hurt" leave? I figure 12 days a year paid leave should be enough. I'll take all 12 days at the end of December. And I want my holiday pay too.

Men should get the same thing, so we can get away from those wimmen who have PMS.

My wife was the first female supervisor in a southern cotton mill. The men used to let the women leave because of "female problems" because they didn't want to discuss it. After my wife got there, they just sent them to her. My wife would tell them "We all have the curse, sister, get back to work". That ended that.

Now I've heard it all ...
This isn't really good, as the company will be reluctant to hire women of childbearing age because they are going to cost more.

I demand absolute equality in the workplace! If women get "Menstrual Leave", then men should get it too.
The boyfriends or husbands should get compensatory leave because of the mental stress of living under the same roof during "that time." Of as the reknown and esteemed Native American Scholar Ward Churchill called it, her "moon time."
