[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In CA a pregnant K9 Officer was given desk duty against her wishes because it was deemed safer by her superiors. 
Maybe this type of discussion is in the Roe v Wade thread already, but I think it deserves its own topic.  There are federal laws on the books protecting women from discrimination, but are all those laws doomed if women are just a vessel while pregnant?
How does one square safety of the fetus against the job demands of the employed pregnant woman? And if those employment protections are overturned, how are those women going to pay for their babies?

Pregnancy, age, or just plain old fashioned discrimination against women is virtually impossible to prove.  Other we employees will lie to protect their jobs and adding insult to injury, EEOC doesn't seem to care that much.[/quote]
