Three days off with pay every month? Pretty good deal.
Adrian Mitchell
Isn't Italy one of those countries whose economy is collapsing a la Greece?
Christian Jones
literally this
Hudson Rodriguez
I want a few extra days paid vacation per month too.
Cooper Martin
yes -- italy is very much like burgerville
Adam Brown
But America's economy is the biggest in the world. I feel like you meant to shitpost but this is incoherent blabbering.
Juan King
Women don't work the same hours and will now take 3 days off.
Really makes it seem hiring them is a waste of time and money.
Nathaniel Williams
WAGE GAP
Brody Flores
With how bitchy women get on their periods I'm not surprised they're being paid to leave.
Matthew Brooks
Italians aren't white and Canadians aren't human.
Kayden Martinez
Thank you, brother.
Tyler Kelly
I wonder if the trannies will complain that they also deserve it because they identify as a woman.
Gavin Cox
shit i'm starting to wonder who really is best korea
Jonathan Thomas
a faint exasperated, "s-social construct"
Kayden Ross
I get man period from my phantom vagina
Cameron Roberts
Why now just skip all the bullshit, and demand basic income for women? It's clear they feel women should be paid just for having a uterus.
Jaxson Diaz
How is this bad? More reason not to hire women.
Nathan Carter
But this would create an actual wage gap.
Jonathan Wilson
Sometimes my guts gets cramped because of IBS and it's painful
Can I have paid shit leave?
Christian Robinson
>implying anyone wants to work with menstruating women
Chase Watson
If a woman is smart enough, she would use this for her benefit. She works in 2 companies and works 3 days a week with 1 company and 2 days in the other one. She calls her cycle on 1 week with 3 days apart from both companies. Boom, she works 3 weeks a month and receives a full month cheque.
Austin Walker
I actually like my job and work weekends and overtime on my own accord. But I can see someone working a dead end job just declare themselves female and mess with this decission. Or at least someone rally should.
Jaxson Brown
It's a good idea. Menstruating women are awful to be around and would just bring morale down.
It's also something they can't control, so it's not like they're taking days of for no reason, so getting paid is fine too.
Jonathan Morales
The cucking continues
Camden Gomez
not to ruin the fun, but the article at the end mentions the same law is already in effect in South Korea and Japan ?
Dylan Long
It's true. South Korea is not best Korea.
James Ramirez
>Jee Roberto, I wonder why women being paid and hired less lately?
Thomas Sanders
It's one of those things people propose just to virtue signal knowing very well it will never even be considered And even if it were to pass it would just mean more jobs for men since it would make women even more unemployable since you already have to give them months for every pregnancy
Ryder Scott
A few years ago I would've taken women at their word in regards to how debilitating periods are but I just can't anymore. They make such a big fuss about swallowing semen to the point where I've tried my own on several occasions to see if it really was that bad (it wouldn't feel right to ask something of someone that I myself wouldn't do). I have an abysmal diet and apparently that should make my cum taste abysmal. What does it taste like? Absolutely fucking nothing. Like jellified water. Is it something I'd order at a restaurant? No. Is it something I'd refuse to swallow for someone I love? Fuck no.
That experiment taught me hands-on that women are useless, shrieking cunts who love to complain about things solely for the sake of complaining and being a perpetual victim. It hurts my heart to see just how awful they are. Enough will never be enough for them.
Jeremiah Jackson
Some may look down on you, but swallowing your own semen to prove a point is admirable
Camden Hernandez
Bullshit. Menstruating doesn't prevent women from doing their joh, specially the type of women women flock to.
Gabriel Edwards
I identify as a woman having her period weekly. I require 3 paid days off a week to cope. Thank you.
Camden Ross
yeah, it takes some BALLS to do that.
Cooper Wilson
The market will respond to this by simply lowering the respective pay for women, or preferring to hire men.
Oh yeah and if you're a woman who doesn't support this, it will effect you regardless, so you have your fellow women to thank for that.
Evan Butler
Reminds me of physics. They were menstruating all month long, never really did anything. But we got work done só fast we had the freedom to do what we pleased for the rest of the class.
Ian Watson
Exactly. Women should get 31 days of paid menstrual leave per month, even February.
Jonathan Bell

>Menstruel leave is passed. >It will now cost companies a shit load of money to hire women. >They no longer hire women. >Women become housewives again. >They lose the right to vote because they don't work. >Roman Empire rises again.

Parker Phillips

Zachary Jones

Ethan Clark
You gullible dumb fucks. They'll pass this legislation and then another one setting quotas for women at every corporation, leading compaines to automate and offshore. Don't you faggots know by now that Marxist legislation will NEVER BENEFIT WHITE MEN
Nicholas Campbell

Jayden Morgan
No man, we are going to have such an economic disaster than greek would looks like a fucking joke.
kek'd hard

Jackson Gray
>Wage gap mysteriously widens.
Chase Jones
Then bleed out your ass three days a month. All Swedish men do it and we're a welfare superpower.
Zachary Harris
Here is just the kind of things which discourages people from hiring females.
Good job on validating pay-gap there.
Julian Edwards
Here in WI, a dem state rep is trying to remove the sales tax from tampons.
Her argument? Men dont' pay tax on viagra. She's seriously saying that since there isnt' a tax on prescription drugs, there shouldn't be a tax on an entirely different OTC product.
Oliver Nguyen
Small price to pay to enjoy a three day repreive from bitchey women.
Chase Foster
Is that not actually counter-intuitive... i mean viagre IS part of the cure for Period pains no?
Cameron Torres
> Work 75% of the time a man works > Get payed 75% of what a man makes > OPPRESSED!
Wyatt White
This is either one of the dumbest things I've ever heard or Italy is playing some serious 12D chess over here. (women get three paid days off per month which means employers will want to employ women even less than they already do now which means more men in the job market and more women at home)
Lucas Anderson
1- This is a bullshit, trust me, it won't happen. 2- Our southern part is already a shithole, there are no money for this.
Landon Jones
>be male >get six boners a day at work despite the majority of women looking like hags >no compensation or relief for the lightheadedness or loss of aptitude as brain shifts gears and blood flow diverts downstairs >keep mouth shut because male and no one cares and supposed to suck it up for the next 40 years and keep it to myself >mfw
Liam Edwards
Part of me wants this so that civilisation collapses just that bit faster.
James Cruz
The more of these bullshit laws are passed, the less women work. Eventually it will be cheaper to pay the fine for not following the vagina quotas than actually hiring women.
Alexander Moore

Kek must make it happen
Jace Sanders
>women get paid not to work just because they're having their period
And women still think they're being discriminated against?
Aiden Taylor

Mason Fisher
Oh fuck off. I want paid leave for everytime I decide to bust a nut in my GF instead of turning up to work
What an absolute load of shit. I can barely even take a sick day at my work place because the women who already take deliberately minimal hours absolutely refuse to cover shifts. Even better the men are not available because they are already rostered on doing the hours women have opted out of.
Josiah Perry
Better solution.
Give them no work at all!
Jace Anderson
>feminists complain about gender gap >propose law to encourage gender gap
Really stimulates exchanges of electricity between my brain cells.
Matthew Bell
The period is very different from woman to woman, but nothing a normal or even weak person couldn't easily handle.
My first gf had her period every 24 days (fucking short cycle), but it lasted for at least 5 days. She behaved like a bitch and used her period as an excuse for everything. So it was one crazy week per month. That's an extreme case, but still i am totally sure that even in this case, she could have easily managed to not be a total bitch, if she wanted. She also claimed to had pain during her period... but this was never more than if some guy eats something bad and has to take a shit every 30min for 2 hours. It's nothing major and nothing which would justify to stay at home and not go to work. That whole tantrum was totally not necessary. It was just for some poor-baby-victim-points.
My second gf had her period every 30 days for 2 days (where the first day was barely noticeable). She didn't throw a tantrum and you would have just known that she is "moody" if you know her very very well and notice the little signs. She just didn't use it as an excuse and tried to be a normal person.
Austin Russell
Fucking america in (current year)

This seems like a shitpost, but after reviewing the flag it is probably the truth.
Adam Lewis
Italy Yes!!!
Brody Kelly
>italians aren't white t. k-pop loving dweeb who moved to korea because he couldnt marry a white woman
Lucas Miller
Will transsexuals also get 3 days off a month? No? Are you saying that they aren't real women?
Cooper Baker
>Maternity leave >Now Gibs for bleeding out of your vag
Nigel Farage was right. Who the fuck would want to employ women these days? >be 5 weeks pregnant women >apply or job >turn up for a job interview >not tell the interviewer that she is pregnant (interviewer isn't supposed to ask her either) >get the job >call up company the next day >''I'm pregnant....gibs money please'' >company then has to pay for her even though she is yet to contribute ANYTHING to the company
My positivity on women in the workplace has been deteriorating over the last 2 years.
Aaron Mitchell
Says the gook.
Nork invasion when?
Adam Anderson
>paid hahahaha
Isaac Edwards
But they still want to be paid the same as men. WTF
Justin Taylor
Only hire women over 50.
Joseph Taylor
what I was thinking
Michael King
I've gotten bad cramps most of my life. One to three extra days off protected from reprimand, unpaid, seems fair to me. I had to take that time, and it was degrading and uncomfortable having to ask so often in fear of reprimand. But paid? Fuck that, I don't need to be paid for not working. Paid vacation days are earned.
Andrew Powell
This just shows how useless their jobs are. The fact that so many could just disappear for so many days and everything would be ok.
Wyatt Long
Have you ever been around an italian woman that is on the rag? stay out of the way
Gavin Bailey
Better even, if they work in bureaucracy.
Leo Green
I'm OK with this
Jason Carter
This, basically. I've gotten cramps bad enough to put me in the hospital, so it would be nice to be able to take even a single day off to suffer through it. I'm ok with it being unpaid; just please don't reprimand me for not being able to uncurl from the fetal position.
Liam Powell
Thats cute desu, id allow you into my company Altho I would probably sexually harass you if you were that cool AND pretty

Cooper Sullivan
Why is every non-anglo western country felling to shit.
Gavin Fisher
Hope I get paid leave for the days my dick wont stop being hard. Im tired of being sent to HR. So I could get paid to stay home and furiously masturbate
Jaxon Gutierrez
This is actually a subtly good thing. Companies will stop hiring women, due to them basically getting 3 days off every 28 days. Those women will then be forced to be monogamous with a stable partner, else end up on the street or back in their parents' house
Andrew Ward
Women like to brag that being a mother is the hardest job in the world but never get days off for menstruation. Sitting at a desk must be infinitely easier than mothering, they can take some mydol and work. Or quit asking their employees for equal treatments and special treatment at the same time.
Anthony Harris
Then nobody would hire women anymore
Owen Howard
Women are the weaker sex. Prove me wrong. Protip : You can't
>Women always lower the standards of success in whatever groups they become a part in >Women have lower capacity to build up muscle mass and a lower overall physical strength aptitude, making them inapt at heavy-duty professions >Women take maternity leave (now extended to betafags too) >Women may take fucking time off because their inherently weaker sexual organs produce blood once per month
just mention you are a male-presenting non-op trans-woman. it would be discrimination to not let you have time of for "ghost cramps"
Carter Thompson
As an Italian, this is another one of those stupid law proposals made by the Democratic Party (PD) to gather votes for the imminent election. It won't pass, we already have one of the worst lawmaking processes in the world, we have politicians who just don't show up to vote on laws, and literally the only ones who want this law to pass are the four cucks who thought it. No one else. We are also getting near the end of this legislature, which means literally everything that doesn't pass in a few weeks after being proposed (which means nothing) will just be forgotten after the elections. As always.
Jacob Diaz
Then they should become housewives again and forget the "strong independent women" meme
Nathan Bailey
I married one. Wait till they are pregnant.
Brandon Peterson
Nice, less competition for me in the job market.
Hudson Harris
this, I'm all for it. Lets give them a free hotel room to stay in too while were at it.
Justin Sanders
woman here menstruation occupies this special place in psychology where most of the symptoms of it are a myth like we see in false preganancy syndrome, which are enforced by women and men's actions legitimizing it, and when the physisician will send home women with real medical problems thinking "oh its just period nonsense" which further pushes back from a need to scale contempt of a womans period so that people with real illnesses aren't told to go fuck themselves for years when their flows last for a week and a half.
It's not unlike your retarded politics.
this wouldn't have ever been a problem if men didn't blow their fucking load and make periods into what they are today. blame the greeks not us. they left this thought virus to ravage women and every person since enforces it with their social behavior, and your contempt for their symptoms simultaniously makes it difficult to differentiate from the girls who have been fucked by the evolutionary lottery and the girls who are buying into the meme.
if you want shit like this to go away you need to stop bitching about moody pms mood swings and start redpilling
Cameron Lewis
>weon amarillo kek
Luke Myers
I don't understand you guys, it sounds great to me. If this becomes an actual law, no one will hire women anymore, which means they will all go back to being housewives while men get hired and paid more.
