Vice: Women Should All Be Allowed to Work Shorter Weeks Because of Sexism

It's called part time work. I used to think businesses were just abusing workers and cutting hours so they didn't have to pay benefits, but it turns out they're worried about our health. I had no idea businesses were getting so progressive these days!

In other words, western women are entitled cunts?

They need to go home early so they can flounder about polishing their own bathroom fixtures and cook themselves gourmet food.

I once had a woman tell me to cover for her shift from 5 pm until 10 pm after I had already been working for more than 24 hours straight, just because she felt it was mandatory for her to go home and walk her stupid rescue dog.

Fuck your stupid housework.

Professor Strazdins says we need to start with men: "Until we can bring men's long hours down, it will lock women out of the workforce. We need to reward people who work closer to our official working week of 38 hours ... It's going to be a slow and difficult process because it's a major social change."

That's actually a little sensible, but you will have to convince the businesses that they will actually get more benefit by making their employees work less. That sounds difficult, but possible I suppose.

That would only lead to HR managers hiring exclusively men. Why pay somebody the same price for their work if they work less hours?
