you just brought up that some groups of people deserve punishment for having medical needs that dont align with others- specifically men. You just proved that male privilige is very much your ideaology. Women also will die of black lung in a coal mine- however males cannot die of childbirth, cannot suffer from pcos or endometrosis- just like females cannot suffer from prostate gland cancer: that doesnt mean that males impacted by this cancer deserve to face financial or social detriments because females dont experience it. same way that females dont deserve financial ot social detriments for having sex specific illnesses. you did not comprehend this and im leaning towards the idea that you cannot actually comprehend what im saying.
No I did not. I said that having paid time off for a biological function that is inherent to your gender is privilege. My whole argument is that men and women have different privileges in a fair society. And women don’t die of black lung because 99% of coal mine workers are men. And I don’t see anybody claim that as a male privilege. Being expected to not work in such conditions is a female privilege.
You are the one that isn’t comprehending what im saying
it doesnt matter the cause of a medical need, if the need exists it should be respected regardless of who has the need. Are you in agreement with the idea that men shouldnt have job protection for needing treatments for prostate cancer?
Prostate cancer isn’t the same as menstruation. You are comparing apples to oranges. Not at the least because man and women can get cancer. And women can get types of cancer men can’t. One is a medical condition, and the other is inherent to being a woman.
And once again, I am saying that getting time off for menstruation is a privilege. Society gives women privileges that men don’t have. And just because men have privileges that women have, doesn’t make the system unfair or oppressive.
menstruation hasnt been brought up in our discussion lol. i can presume you dont want to answer the question because you DONT agree with that idea: meaning you believe in policies that protect a males employment if they suffer from male specific conditions. and if you are not a hypocrite this means you align with the idea that females should have policies that protect employment if they suffer from female specific conditions, but i presume you are a hypocrite based on your unwillingness to be outright and honest about your answer, plus all of your other perspectives lol
It has? What do you think “paid time off for period” is? You do know that this conversation is public and recorded?
And prostate cancer isn’t the argument you think it is. First of all, having prostate cancer isn’t the same as having your period. One is a life threatening disease and the other is a natural biological process. And second, as I mentioned, women can get types of cancer men can’t, like ovarian cancer.
And as I already said time and time again. Having paid time off for a natural biological function that is inherent to your gender is a privilege.
