Since the release of Live Action’s Pro-Choice Bosses video<\/a> series<\/a> highlighting the very real (and illegal) pregnancy discrimination that occurs in the workplace, Instagram users have been sharing comments that reveal the anti-woman, anti-motherhood attitude that is shockingly prevalent in the “feminist proud” United States.<\/p>\n

While many have shared stories of being discriminated against (supporting the validity of the satirical videos), others have shown the validity of the videos in a different way \u2014 by displaying discriminatory, misogynist attitudes toward pregnant women\u00a0in the comments section of a Live Action Instagram post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“I understand those employers,” wrote one user. “Pregnant females don’t work properly most of the time and nobody wants to pay a person who sits at home with a child instead of being efficient. Men will always be more efficient at work. If you hire a man you don’t have to ‘lose’ them for many mo[n]ths. I know females who don’t hire females because of pregnancy or even periods (females can take time off more often because of periods\/pain). Be angry. Idc. [I don’t care]”<\/p>\n

URGENT:\u00a0<\/b>For every dollar given, 34 more people can be reached with the truth about abortion. Will you join us in this life-saving work as a monthly donor today?<\/i><\/b><\/a><\/p>\n
