That's what I am thinking.

Call it what you want to call it, but men have an advantage in the workplace. People taking up to a year off is a pain in the butt and cost the company in real $$$.
I agree!

How about those handicapped people that you need to build special ramps and have those special stalls built right into the washroom for. I can't believe those people, who inconvenience us normal white men at work, and expect the same things we get.

That's absurd, and they should just suck it up and accept their place in society. We should not have to accommodate them at all, after all they decided to be handicapped.
