what owns is that if even a fraction of women actually did strike for one day, a bunch of essential societal functions and services would be completely hosed they should actually do it, tho I hope they pick a day when I don't have a friend or family member in the hospital

How you can show solidarity without striking: 1. only work 10 hours instead of your normal 12. 2. take the toner out of the office printers; replace with other, lower quality toner. 3. refuse to tell fellow employees about the funny thing your cats did last night. 4. tape rape whistle to mouth of can of compressed air, tape down trigger of compressed air. hide it somewhere in the office. 5. become small, deathly pale withered thing that can only be seen out of the corner of your coworker's eyes. 6. spend slightly more time on facebook complaining about things instead of working than you normally do. 7. stuff vagina with garlic, act like you don't know what in the office smells like a vagina full of garlic. 8. burn down the office.

I think you'll find that antisocialist liberals wearing red for solidarity is EXACTLY how a strike works

I feel bad for all the women who want to strike but are put into a situation where they cannot, like having a job that will fire someone for missing a day or not having enough money to be able to take a day off.

walgreenslatino posted:aaaaaand checked out if anyone is curious and hates yahoo here's the rest of the sentence: quote:...points out that “a woman with a comfortable office job may be able to ‘strike’ simply by taking paid time off and feel confident that her job will be there when the strike is over. But for women in lower-wage positions with few or no protections, leaving for even a day might mean going without necessary wages, or incurring the wrath of an abusive boss, or even losing her job entirely.”

I'm going to start a business that only employs women, and it's going to own because women are as smart as men and don't need to be paid as much apparently

I always figured this wouldn't be true because men's bathrooms consistently have piss all over the floor but then I learned this is also true in the women's rooms because loads of ladies are too afraid of dirty butts to actually sit on the toilet and just sort of hover above it, which is difficult

Don't police my bathroom choices! But seriously I worked as a busser and in fast food as a teenager, and both jobs included cleaning bathrooms. Women's bathrooms were universally more disgusting. Women being more fastidious than men is one of those weird cultural myths that doesn't really have any basis in reality, but I guess since its a positive one and relatively minor no one ever thinks to challenge the concept that the genital configuration with *less* ability to aim and *more* fluids and products to deal with is somehow cleaner.

Lindsey O. Graham posted:you worked in fast food as a teenager, and base your perception of all women's bathrooms on that Fast food *and* middle tier dining, so, uh, I guess a reasonable cross section of middle and lower class bathroom goers? Like, what is your extensive bathroom experience you're using to gainsay this? What bathrooms have you been walking into? And why would you think a few splashes of urine would be worse than bloody pads and tampons left out/splashes of blood?
