> knowing which days someone is bleeding one doesn't seem to be useful in attacking someone unless you believe it makes them a weaker target or something.
I have other things to say here but immediately this is a wildly gross and sexist way to phrase this.
> The others aren't about safety
> risks to job prospects, workplace monitoring, health insurance discrimination
A threat to livelihood and proper health care is a threat to safety, and the fact that you don't recognize that should hopefully trigger some amount of self-reflection.
Beyond that the fact that you can't make the really simple connection between knowing someone's menstrual cycle and knowing their pregnancy status means I deeply hope you take some time to self-reflect and maybe consider that you don't quite have the tools to engage in a nuance conversation about this and should instead take some time to listen to others
"A threat to livelihood and proper health care is a threat to safety, and the fact that you don't recognize that should hopefully trigger some amount of self-reflection."
A threat to livelihood is not a direct threat to safety. If we take this indirect route of logic, it can be applied to anything. Furthermore, how is it a threat to livelihood? Don't we have protected statuses for pregnant women in employment law?
"Beyond that the fact that you can't make the really simple connection between knowing someone's menstrual cycle and knowing their pregnancy status means I deeply hope you take some time to self-reflect and maybe consider that you don't quite have the tools to engage in a nuance conversation about this and should instead take some time to listen to others"
I'm asking legitimate questions, but I'm getting emotional responses instead of logical ones. You're making implications here about menstrual vs pregnancy status but not forming an actual response about them.
