Biological differences

Just when I think I’ve heard or read the ultimate nonsense people will resort to, efforts to eradicate the - dare I say it - God-designed differences between men and women, we learn of an even more ridiculous tactic being used in the effort.

A former female police officer is suing EWU for not making suitable arrangements for her to breast-feed her baby while on duty.

It occurs to me that Ms. Fell is suing the wrong entity. She should sue “Mother Nature” or God Himself for making women biologically different than men. Yeah, and come to think of it, we men should sue EWU, or “Mother Nature,” or God for making US incapable of experiencing the joy of giving birth to babies and breast-feeding them!

But, as I now remove tongue from cheek, I predict that in view of today’s screwed-up society and lawmaking by liberal judges, this former female police officer will win a liberal settlement of some kind.
