I feel like women should be given PTO for heavy and/or especially painful periods. It's so painful sometimes and it feels like all of the energy has been sapped from your body. Not to mention the desperate trips to the gross public bathroom and having to deal with the mess of emptying a cup or changing tampons without proper privacy (you have to leave the stall to clean your messy hands and the cup or just not clean the cup at all).
I'm curious to hear your opinions on this. Do you think uterus-bearing people should be granted PTO or some other accommodating during troublesome periods?
