I'm a guy. We have parental leave policy at my workplace where both the mother and father can take 6 weeks off. You can take this time in one week chunks within 1 year of the child's birth. So I wanted to take 4 weeks off, and save the other 2 weeks for whenever my child gets sick or whatever. I told my manager this, and he's fine with it. I told my coworkers, and this one coworker keeps calling me a pussy for wanting to take more than 2 weeks off... He's like back in his days, you wouldn't take a week or two off at most, that it's a woman's job to bond and be with the newborn. Now, I've tried talking to him privately, and he just doubles down and calls me a guy with no balls for being offended. I don't really want to go to HR nor his manager, since except for this one instance, he's a pretty nice guy. So... What are my options here? --- https://i.imgur.com/XNEdLrJ.png ...

If you've already talked to him in private, than I'd say your options are take it to HR or ignore it until you go on leave and hope he doesn't constantly bring it up afterwards. --- They have taken untold millions that they never toiled to earn But without our brain and muscle not a single wheel can turn ...

Yea just ignore it. You don't even need to defend yourself against him. Just let him continue to be an ignorant asshole. You take your time off and enjoy the time with your kid. Because you won't get it back. Don't worry about what anyone else thinks. By the way, I'm currently a stay at home dad with no job. I get a lot of shit from a lot of people. But whatever. I embrace being the primary caretaker of my kid and I'm pretty proud of myself honestly. People can just fuck off. I don't care. ... Copied to Clipboard!

If you don't want to take it to HR, I recommend a parking lot fight. Tell him that the next time he calls you a pussy to meet you out there and you'll settle it like men. You probably won't face any recourse if you whoop his ass because HE is the one that is calling you a pussy. So what does that mean about him if you kicked his ass, helped him to his feet and shook hands after? He will have newfound respect for you and won't slander your character again. If you go to HR and it is any less than a firing, he has all the verification he needs. --- Hanananananana! This country's yours and mine. It's the home of the brave and the free.

Wonder about his relationship with his kids if he has any. Wouldn't surprise me if he was a hard ass dad who showed little love to his kids.

Going to HR would be a mistake unless he's going out of his way to harass you about it out of the blue. tbqh, it was a mistake to tell your coworkers in the first place, it's none of their business. I wouldn't have even spoken with him privately about it, all it does is cause friction for the future. Just let it slide, take your time, and don't talk with this person outside of the necessary work related correspondence. --- Ryzen 3800x, 6900XT, 32 gig, 970pro, Asus Strix x570-E FC: SW-8431-3263-1243 ...
