Brit: There is a very important factor you are missing and this is "possibly" because you are not aware of the eastern culture. NO female in the east would ever like to disclose in any way that she would be soon going through her periods and avail leave from work for this purpose While I do agree that females do feel some discomfort during this period of time, they still continue to give their output and in my working life both here and in my country, I have never seen a situation where there has been a low or poor output of work from females due to their cycle. And there are thousands and thousands of females working in companies in the east. This whole new concept has now just begun in the "west" and will stay there. There are certain things in the eastern culture that would not not allow such ideas to take ground.
