Spanish Men Entitled to Time Off for Breastfeeding

The good news is that in countries run by moonbats, unless you're running a business, you're entitled to pretty much anything you can imagine. The bad news is that if you are running a business, doling out these absurd entitlements on behalf of Big Government won't leave you in a position to hire many people. The latest insanityfrom nearly bankrupt Spain:

Europe's top court has declared that working fathers in Spain are entitled to take 'breastfeeding leave' every day, even if the mother of the child is not employed. …
Fathers are currently only allowed to apply for breastfeeding leave if the mother is employed full time. …
Not giving dads the same right as mums in this case "is liable to ... keep men in a role subsidiary to that of women in relation to the exercise of their parental duties," the court ruled.

Think how many demented laws could be avoided if more liberals knew enough biology to be aware of the differences between men and women.
