Another Texas school has joined the race to be the most outrageously ignorant education facility in the state after administrators placed a female assistant principal on leave because they dont believe her IUD caused her to bleed during a training session, and it just gets more outrageous from there.
Kourtney Glaser has worked hard to become a respected assistant principal at Comanche Springs Elementary School. Shes also a wife and a new mother. Thats why she uses an IUD, a intrauterine birth control device that prevents pregnancy.
Unfortunately, Glaser experienced a medical emergency during a district training session when she began bleeding heavily after the IUD became lodged in her uterine wall. At the hospital, doctors removed the device and stopped the bleeding.
Glaser expected to return to work and her normal routine, but the district decided to put her on leave instead. Why? Because her bosses dont believe her bleeding was caused by the IUD. They think her lady bleeding was caused by severe anxiety, accused her of being afraid of public speaking, and demanded she show them her private medical records despite the fact that she had already provided district officials the necessary documentation to back up her story.
But the Eagle Mountain-Saginaw Independent School District refuses to believe that the IUD caused the medical emergency. You know, because Texas is full of morons who know nothing about female anatomy and are in denial that women actually use birth control.

She should have a pretty easy time fighting this one, what with her doc's note clearing her to go back to work.
Texas isn't the only place where all men know about female anatomy is where to stick it.
