EU Mandates Breastfeeding Time for Men

Under the pernicious philosophy that men and women are biologically equal because they are equal under the law, the European Court of Justice in Luxembourg has ruled that men, in addition to women, must get time off from work every day for breastfeeding an infant.

The ruling resulted from a complaint by a Spaniard who said something like, "[sniff, sniff] Boo-hoo, she gets time off. Why don't I?"

Members of the court pontificated about equal rights between men and women before sheltering their obviously over-stressed intellects in the sphinctered comfort of ideology.

Of course, the simple fix would be for the breastfeeding issue to be exclusively a parenting concern, not an employer-employee concern, nor the government's nor the court's.
