As a side note...I think PMT is a myth invented by abusive girlfriends.

you cant use shaving as an excuse, we have to shave our legs every so oftern..and under our arms 😖

he should wax it, it lasts for longer *shrugs*

😆 This is ridiculous... ok, bad period pains are a biatch to deal with, but they do have to be dealt with. What the hell's happening to humanity?? Women have been having periods as far back as the dawn of time, do you think prehistoric woman called in sick and demanded pay?? This is utterly degrading. Our society is softening to the point of us being completely pathetic and we'll soon be pointless. We're supposed to be the top of the food chain, superior race and all that. If women can't handle period pains it'll be childbirth next, then what the hell is our species supposed to do? I have horrific period pains but I knock back a few ibuprofen and I get on with it.

On a side note, those guys who simply act like this is a battle of the sexes, you're in the wrong forum. Idiots.

i mightve actually changed my oppinion on this subject 😱

To what? 😱

well...maybe we dot kneed so many daysdof f if any at all 😖

✅ It's a lovely gesture that women get extra days off for it anyway, but now they want more?? For years women have been striving for equality in the workplace and now, instead of being appreciative of the accommodating nature shown them, they're filling the big guns with ammunition to blow them off course again! It's stupid, degrading to woman everywhere and entirely unfair on men.

thasts true... i mean you only reeally get them on the first da yof your period right!? so thats like however many drinks in a year which isnt the extra anmount.....the maximum wed eed is 12 but ilike backfirwe sais if you get it that ba d you hsould have pills/medivation.

Men should get paid "I wanna sit at home on my ass drinking beer all day" days 😄.

Feminism is rubbish. Wanna be like men? Wanna be treated like men? Strive for eqaulity? Learn to take the bad with the good, ladies. Thems my thoughts, and dont try to argue with me, cuz youre not gonna get a reply 😉.

boxing I agree with you Kossie. But, because of the way you conveyed your opinion, I'm going to kick your ass anyway. Biznitch 🪩

Hey, we are talking of corporations that earn billions of dollars a year. Heck, they can afford it so give it to the girls who have this problem. Don't pity those CEO's Screw them! Make it 24! 😄

im sort of leaning more towards the dont let them...i mean there is really no point....
so i say just keep it at 12....😬

It's an unneccesary gesture 😬 The money wasted could go to much more important things.

like people in poverty droolio

The money will always go to the big fat cat owner. Trust me, these people are filthy rich thanks to hard work and low paid they get from their employees. Never pity big corporations.....they won't pity you when you get fired or get a cut back. Take advantage of them while you can.

If you endorse the "Take advantage of them while you can" attitude then don't b*tch about corporate greed. If you do then you're basically saying that you are upset that you can't take advantage of people the same way they do.

I agree.. it's not a fair attitude to have 😬

at the moment, women who have horrible period pains get 12 paid days off work a year.
recently, theyr'e thinking of increasing it to 24 days!

this is obviously for women who have them really bad, and they have to have a doctors letter confirming this....

what do you guys think of it?

How is that fair?

You don't see guys asking for more time off after having to come home from a hard day's work only to have to deal with their wives...

now THAT is pain

Is basically your own ethics. Is your choice in the end if you want to do it or not. You work hard for low paid were is the fairness?

Life is not fair, if you want a fair work place, then do something about it, or choose to work for a place that respects their employees. There are companies out there like that.

Unfortunately people now feel that they are entitled to way too much nowadays. There are alot more people who get what they want by b*itching louder than by working harder, but that's just my opinion, and we're a little off topic, so let's get back to the topic.
