<<Do the courts in the US consider discrimination on the basis of pregnancy to be sex discrimination?>>
My understanding is that no, pregnancy is not considered "sex discrimination" - apparently being pregnant is not the same as being a woman! (I learned this just today from Jake Marcus (JD here in the USA) on another list so hopefully she'll see this and give a more articulate response.)
