So many weak women out there.
And here I thought men were supposed to be the ones who thought with their crotches.
DailyMail: A UK company is set to create a ‘period policy’ to give long-suffering women time off work during their monthly cycle.
The new initiative aims to tap into female staff’s ‘natural rhythms’ in order to create a happier and more productive work environment – and it could be a UK first.
Company director Bex Baxter, who employs 31 staff – seven male – at the social community group Coexist, wants to change the stigma around ‘women’s issues’. MORE
I have a better idea. If they are too emotionally unstable to hold a job, why don’t they just stay home and raise their neglected children?
Sometimes dont you just want to stop the world and get off?
If you like your menstrual policy, you will be able to keep your menstrual policy. Period.
?
I see what you did there, Vietvet
This will work out well now that women are going into combat units.
Does that mean when the bottle blonde lady on Fox has blood coming out of her eyes and you know other places that Murdoch will give her some extensive paid time off? How about during the next debate!
that reminds me..
how do you know when it’s that time of month for an elephant?
your mattress is gone and there’s a dime on your dresser.
That would leave about 4 days a month my wife could work, 2 are the weekend. I choose to not understand.
If men don’t get some time off to take care of their cyclical horniness, then employers should bring in hookers once or twice a month. Ladies, if you think that your monthly discomfort makes it hard for you to concentrate on work, ask a man about blue balls.
eternal cracker p,
It sounds like your wife gave up sex for Lent, years ago
Blow Job Week!
Coexist? With whom?
But wait – I thought the feminazis say there are no differences in genders.
Sorry, but I have a headache.
Which would only add to the modest wage gap between men and women (most the result of more flexible work schedules women seek and crap like this etc). If you are missing one week a month, why should you get paid at a higher level than a person who is there every week?
Absurd. Ridiculous. When I was a teen, I had such horrible cramps that I wanted to die. But I went to school every day, in abject pain, took tests, participated in class, played sports after school because my team was counting on me. It’s called endurance.
When pregnant with each of my three children, I suffered greatly from morning sickness — all day, every day, for months. I sat at my desk at work, leaning over occasionally to puke in my trash can, and just kept grinding on the task at hand. My family was counting on my income. I could not afford days off for the luxury of puking at home. (I also emptied my own wastebasket at the end of the day, because I thought it was cruel to subject the janitors to its contents!)
We have simply reached a point in our society where people have grown up with too much comfort. The ideas of any discomfort whatsoever makes these precious snowflakes melt.
Balderdash!
Bosh and nonsense!
If that is the case, there should be immediate provisions made for Manliness Time.
Men need a long weekend set aside for camping.
Every Month!
Natural Justice demands it!
A time where a Man, the historic provider, the once mighty hunter who in his sacrifice for a civil existence, has left the freedom and joy of the outdoors and chains himself to an execrable cubicle for hours every day, tappity tapping on some machine, dealing politely with imbeciles. The apex predator of all this world must breathe the foul filtered air and perfumes of the hapless others trapped in there with him.
He endures being crammed into a shirt that must be tucked in at all times and cinched tight with the colorful silk badge of servitude tied tightly around his neck.
He must not notice the splendid cleavages and legs prominently displayed around him. His eye must not wander, his genuflections must remain bland and free of innuendo. His natural desires must be caged. He notes the rightness of these things but chafes at the unfairness as he is required to remain covered from his heels to his Adam’s apple.
He needs regular relief from these horrid encumbrances.
A time where this once proud specimen of manhood can again breathe the bracing air of freedom and roll drunkenly around the fire and state his grievances about his lot to brave companions who shore him up with the tonic of shared misery and the solidarity of the oldest of brotherhoods; that of the Men who share your fire.
I expect to see this implemented immediately.
The most dormant of consciences should awaken to right this grievous wrong.
7 men to handle the workload for 24 females …. sounds about right
(& before you jump all over this comment … it ain’t my doin’ … just following “Bex Baxter’s” logic)
Next, they will want time off for PMS (Pre Menstrual Syndrome and Post Menstrual Syndrome).
Will they have to “prove” they are on their periods? Or are we to just take their word?
Davy, oh I think we’ll be able to tell
@Beach Mom, sounds just like my experience! When I was preggers with our son and working graveyard patrol, I would have to pull over and puke, get back in the car and continue on to my calls. At least it was graveyard shift so there weren’t so many people out to wonder why the police officer was puking in the gutter. Lol!
@Tired Mom; that’s what I meant. I’m a tired mom, too! lol
Lazlo = Mark Twain!
And free tampons too….
This is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. Are”feminists” supporting this policy? This does not empower women – it weakens them. I hate the left. “Coexist” indeed.
How does an Arkansas mom know her daughter is on her period?
She can taste it on her sons d*ck. Bad, very bad….
It’s England … they ain’t gonna do shit anyway, so why not give em another week off?
31 employees, 7 male … sounds like a fuckin hen-house …
To Anonymous
Thanks for saying Arkansas and not Alabama. We get picked on enuf
Arkansas because of Bubba and family…..
Oh what fun knowing when everyone is on their cycle! Is nothing private any longer?
To simplify matters, each monthly cycle will now last one month long.
Hey stop the war I’m bleeding!
Does this apply to our three brand new female Army Rangers?
At that point you put them on front line……..
It’s a biological fact that females being close together (coworkers, roommates, etc.) have their cycles sync up. Goes back to caveman days when the women were fertile at the same time so one male can impregnate many females at one time for the purpose of growing the population.
Knowing this, Bex Baxter is willing to cut their staffing by 24 once a month.
Garbage!
“Bristol Creatives is not-for-profit, artist led networking and marketing initiative for creative people in the city.”
It’s not like they were doing anything useful and productive anyway.
So they are paying them to stay away. I’m OK with that.
And this is supposed to support the FemiNazi notion of equality of the sexes? Especially equal pay?
and here you have today’s feminist……
I AM JUST AS GOOD AS ANY MAN ANY DAY…..
EXCEPT WHEN I HAVE MY PERIOD…….
so, in order to fix that for me, YOU HAVE TO PAY ME FOR HAVING MY PERIOD……
because…….. I AM JUST AS GOOD AS ANY MAN ANY DAY…..
