[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Even if a job offers it, often men cannot take it or they will be penalized. My husband took a few days. He got little leave. It sucked.[/quote] He was denied? Or he was scared to challenge the status quo? It’s, legally speaking, sex discrimination to penalize men for taking bonding leave that women regularly take. [/quote] Correct. And while women just suck it up men often refuse to confront it. or more likely they believe consciously or not that they are entitled to not change their lives while their wife shoulders the burden even if she has her own job. It is insidious and should be nipped in the bud. [/quote] Yes, this is why I shame men at work for taking less than the full available parental leave. As far as I can tell, it’s working.[/quote]
