I'm a male and I live in the state of Missouri. I recently received four weeks of paternity leave since my wife had our child. I work with a lesbian and her spouse is having a child. She would also get four weeks too. We also have an adoption policy that allows you to take two weeks of leave if you adopt a child. Since my coworker is lesbian she will legally have to adopt which gives her an extra two weeks. She now gets a total of 6 weeks. This doesnt seem fair since this type of situation only applies to lesbians, not gay males or straight married couples. Is this something I could file issue on since it isnt fair for all emoyees. Im afraid if it is and I discuss it with HR, they might let me go since they are very open about being diverse.
