IQ of that scenario should be answered as Ignorant Question, as not one of them is able to spell I Q without giving a reason why you are racist for asking

You joke, but if this were ever to come to pass (it obviously won't), that would be the next step. Because what this is really about is destroying the country. Liberals will continue to try to take a mile if they're given an inch. The next step would be to say that men also go through hormonal changes when their wives are on the rag and they should be given time off for it as well. Next thing you know, businesses can't stay in business because they always have X number of people out due to frickin hormones.

Perhaps these women should consider that there is beauty in bearing and raising children rather than being absorbed in a career.

Not feeling well physically?

Do what men do and take a sick day.

Out of sick days?

Do what men do and suck it up and go to work.

It’s always want, want, and want. They don't even understand how to define what a woman is, claim trans men can have a period, etc.

What they don't want is to be part of the conscription process. Most don't want to do hard labor, pay for meals when dating, or be treated as equals.

Yes, this isn't all women, but it's definitely the ones trying to tell everyone else how to live their lives.

If democrats would just drop the extreme left part of their party, they would easily be running the White House, the senate, and the house.

The fringe part of each party will be their ultimate downfalls

This would result in much fewer women in the workforce. Employers would simply stop hiring them. How could you possibly afford to pay someone who isn't available for 4 months out of the year? For those who suck at math, that's 1 week a month for "period time" and 4 weeks a year of vacation time. They'd actually be out of office more than that because they'd definitely take sick days also.

Which portion of their party isn't part of the extreme left?

I’ll agree to this if men get two fishing days off per month.

You want us just to accept all the craziness and keep quiet about it, then give us paid fishing.

Seems a pretty fair compromise.

Does this include the males who have “periods”?

In the private sector, you are usually allowed a certain number of PTO days. You can take them for any reason, but once used up, they are gone. PTO replaced sick and vacation days. Some employers pay you for unused days. I don't have a problem with it, but you don't get extra PTO days for periods.

Government employees should not have off for that.

Use PTO. Not a hill they want to die on.

If something like this passes I'll be a menstruating man for sure. I'll shove tampons up my butt and everything.

But we've been told for the past 30 years that women can do anything men can do in the work place. I guess I missed the except one week per month part. This basically states that women need an extra 12 weeks PTO annually. Doesn't sound like equity to me.

My theory about women getting grumpy during their periods is that a deep seated evolutionary signal is telling them they just missed an opportunity to further life.
