[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]First of all, putting this on the fact that he's a gay man is kind of gross and does not make you look sympathetic at all.[/b]

Second, FMLA would cover this sort of thing *if you had filed for it.* Did you fill out the appropriate paperwork and file with HR?

I'm not saying your boss isn't being a jerk (and honestly that's an unprofessional email from him), but you are also not covering yourself in glory here by insinuating that his sexual orientation makes him less compassionate and by invoking an HR/legal process that it does not sound like you have actually activated.

I couldn't disagree more. It is highly relevant. Have you ever had to deal with being postpartum? It is a nightmare and truly a life or death situation for some women. Gay men simply can't ever understand that.[/quote]

I agree. I actually think the difference in lifestyle is important here--not being gay, just not being a parent with a traveling spouse versus being one. Would he put the same type of pressure on a person taking care an elderly relative?

OP, get some FMLA so you're protected and he'll leave you alone. [/quote]
