Not to mention a recent study, that I will go look for after the next major vacuuming and mopping I do (I live alone, ain’t blaming no one) that men are also more likely to work longer hours by surfing the net and avoiding going home because in years past working longer hours = value.

Especially since no one is talking about Internet conversations except him.

The funny thing is that it’s not even relevant. Just because women swap stories doesn’t mean it’s also not true that statistically they do more household work all else being equal.

Data analysis isn’t for anyone, huh?

Ahhhh hell no. I work three jobs; my work weeks are routinely 55-60 hours a week; and my daily commute Monday-Friday is 3 hours round trip (weekends are shorter.) My husband, on the other hand, works 40 hours a week on a compressed schedule at one job, and his commute is 10 minutes round trip.

Weird, paid family leave seems to work just fine in every other country that requires it, and their businesses haven’t been bankrupted.

Red Guard’s a huge fucking asshole who was sexually harassing the holy fuck out of someone the other day.

In the short term, no it wouldn’t affect me at all. But your question was why they don’t operate like a traditional doctors office, which they do.

“Flex time” is corporate double-speak for “Fuck yoooooooouuuuuuuuuuu.”

There is a shortage of ob gyns in the country. This shortage is especially bad in poor and rural areas. Many of the ones available do not need to accept Medicaid patients because they have sufficient private insurance patients, and it’s easier and more lucrative not to have to deal with Medicaid. This leaves poor…

Planned Parenthood is a health services provider, so why can’t women choose them? Also, having insurance doesn’t mean you can afford healthcare, and Planned Parenthood offers their services on a sliding scale. My OB/GYN is billed as a specialist. Some specialist co-pays can be $70-100 per vist. Planned Parenthood…

A lot of women on medicaid go there. The bulk of their govt funding comes from reimbursement for providing services to medicaid patients. Many doctors do not take medicaid. PP is one of the few that provides these type of services in many areas. Furthermore, just because it’s the law that everyone have health…

They are only receiving funding through Medicaid reimbursements. It’s the same as any other doctors office, if a Medicaid patient receives care the gov’t reimburses the office via Medicaid payment.

I went to planned parenthood for several years and I had insurance. The first few years it was because I was still on my parent’s insurance and i needed access to birth control (my parents wouldn't have been comfortable funding that or knowing that). Then it was because even though I was lucky to have insurance, it…

I had insurance and chose to go to PP because I lived in a very conservative area and didn’t want any judgement from the gynecologist because I wanted to go on birth control (the doctors’ bios for the women’s health clinics in the area were all about how Jesus had led them to the town/ they were there to spread the…

Government funding to Planned Parenthood is mostly reimbursement for health care services. They are people’s health care provider. I’ve been a patient when I had insurance as well as when I didn’t.

Not to me too pregnant women would need those flex days for things like “pre-natal check ups."

Everyone doesn’t actually get flex time and in my experience you can’t just hold on to it for a year. Flex time is not a solution.

Why do we keep having to have this fight? Those videos are lies. People want and need PP. Abortion is legal and even if it wasn’t women would still being getting them.

Fuck that. I use my flex days to do things like “go to the park” and “wack off to the Price is Right”. Give me* my goddamn family leave like a normal fucking first world country.
