Forcing childless people to have more unscheduled days off because parents get priority on scheduling PTO is unfair to those without kids.

But it isn't parents fault that your employer is being unfair to you. Your employer could just as easily staff more people and allow as much time off for childless people as parents.

But you're not yelling about employers, you're yelling about how parents shouldn't have children.

It depends lol

You don't want everyone to have the same access to time off. You want preferential treatment as a childless person. You want parents to be discriminated against for having children.

Your comment history is public.

Every person is incapable of never needing a day off of work.

No matter how hard you want to blame parents for your misfortunes, the work balance is ultimately the responsibility of your employer.

You will never rid the world of children and parents.

You're right, it's better to attack your fellow workers instead of putting blame where it belongs.

You're advocating for all parents to be fired from their jobs because they have children.

You still think you know how things work in the real world?

The sex worker is still the one setting the prices and what services she offers in this comparison.

The example isn't that a rapist is setting the cost of raping a victim.

Why are you being a shill for capitalism?

The responsibility to have work coverage is on your employer, not your coworkers.

The only one I ever adhere to is not wearing a white bridal-looking gown to a wedding.

But all the others can go.

Thanks for taking that "chose to breed" line out.

It always surprises me when acknowledgement that rape happens gets downvoted. It shouldn't surprise me anymore, but it does.

Its also hilarious to assume every childbirth is intentional.

It's part of the sexism that is barely under the surface of childfree communities. Harder to punish women for their life choices if they have to think about the many reasons one may find themselves burdened with a child.
