Changed my name as I'm embarrassed by his comments.
Basically me and DP were discussing feminism and he starts going on about how it would take 2 women to do one mans job yet people have to take women on so they're not seen as sexist . I told him women were just as capable as men and vice versa and he said women are not as capable in manual work, physically or mentally...I asked what he meant by mentally and he replied:
--------
"cos there's no point in employing someone who occasionally gets all emotional (as some women do) on the job, blokes don't do that (in general). I've worked with lasses in the past who've dissapeared off the shop floor for half an hour with "womens problems" leaving muggins in the shit, when it happens once - it's not a problem, but 10 mins on the shop, 30 mins off three times a day is a piss take

am I right in getting wound up by this?? his whole attitude stinks lately.
