It seems like every week, there’s a new story of a female high school or even middle school teacher who has been arrested for engaging in relations with one of her students.
The women are often young, attractive, and often (seemingly) happily married. It has been happening so frequently that it appears to be a reasonably solid trend, and yet there’s little widespread call to end it.
Selwyn Duke of the New American, in his article, Female Teachers Having Affairs With Young Boys Now a Weekly Occurrence, says that while there are many high-profile cases the media has covered recently, the details of who these women are is unimportant.
“Significant is that theyre part of a larger problem, one defined well by Hofstra University professor Charol Shakeshaft, he says, citing an article from Life Site News in 2011 which said:
Shakeshaft, the researcher of a little-remembered 2004 study prepared for the U.S. Department of Education, [found that] the physical sexual abuse of students in schools is likely more than 100 times the abuse by priests. According to the 2004 study the most accurate data available at this time indicates that nearly 9.6 percent of students are targets of educator sexual misconduct sometime during their school career.
“Note that this scandal has never been sufficiently addressed and thus the abuse continues,” Duke says.
So, why is “Sodom in the schoolhouse,” as Duke puts it?
The reason is simple, and it’s one that we tackle here each and every day. Adults are no longer behaving like adults.
There is one glaring reason that many people don’t spend too much time outraged at the thought of an adult woman having sexual relations with a teenage boy–most people expect the teenage boy is more than thrilled to partake, calling into question whether or not it is abuse.
“Teen boys do have robust libidos (this is related to testosterone level, highest between the ages of 14 and 17), and their temptation is great. Yet a child may also eat sweets for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if you let him. Thats why adults exist. Its their role to establish boundaries,” Duke astutely points out.
“As for the men looking back and remembering how willing theyd have been, they should ponder Edna St. Vincent Millays line, ‘Pity me that the heart is slow to learn What the swift mind beholds at every turn.’ However one feels emotionally, a mature intellect intervenes and understands that the ‘heart is deceitful above all things.'”
These women are adults, put in the charge of children in need of guidance and maturity–not child predators who satisfy entirely godless sexual desires with their immature students who hardly know better.
There is, of course, one final important point that needs to be made. Most–not all, but most–of these incidents are taking place in public schools. Public schools are already full of immoral sexual values being pushed on children at every term. Many public school teachers are already seeping the school experience so much in step, they’re one step short of teaching children how to have sex themselves…so is it any wonder that so many are crossing that final line?
I didn’t go there. It came to me bud.
I get all my news from The Onion.
Newt's first wife was his high school geometry teacher.
Nothing new except now with the internet you get her Instagram and facebook pics.
And until real recent times it was only illegal if it was a male teacher and a female student.
Seems as if my buddies had better luck with the English teacher than dry humping during slow dances in the gym Saturday nights.
If a male teacher does it they go to jail. Female teachers just get fired but can go teach elsewhere.
Because men THEIR AGE do understand the full potential costs of a sexual relationship. And very young men generally do not:
Loss of job, reputation, family, friends, etc.
A very young man has none of those but has to contend with sky-high T-levels.
Where the hell were these hot young female teachers when I was in high school in the late 80s? I don’t think any of my teachers were under 45 and all of them had faces uglier than catcher’s mitts. I’d have puked at the very thought of any extra curricular activity with any of them.
I remember his FReeper name, and it flat out does not exist any longer.
He was/is a singer in the northeast and my guess is that he was recognized from here and he worried it would hurt him professionally. His first name is Jason.
Half a dozen, a dozen. You’re kidding, right?
The guy’s right. I’d say there have been dozens, if not hundreds reported in the last few years. And those are just the ones reported.
I knew a substitute teacher in the 1980s that left her husband for a student. Personally, I think its that they want to be teenagers again.
Arrested development isn’t always obvious, but when you put it in a tank full of adolescents, it practically lights up. And maybe, too, some of these pervs don’t ever want to leave the school atmosphere so they go into the teaching profession.
Yet another reason: narcissists enjoy a captive audience and the classroom is loaded with worshippers. It probably doesn’t matter to some of them whether the attention comes from a 17yo or an 18yo — until they’re caught.
President Macron’s wife was his teacher, too.
I can’t correlate generations and any statistics of this behavior. I do know our society has lost shame. Abortion ripped the soul and morals of women. The great influx of new teachers, as the old ones retired, were sex fueled from a debaucherous American culture, Pornography, Feminism, cesspool Social Media and perverted Colleges. There is no curriculum of inappropriate behavior or code of conduct taught in college education programs.
Sleazy Newt naked? Dear Lord, celibacy here I come!!!
I want to know where these teachers were when I was in school!
Or, why are so many telling.
Do you suppose there would be a widespread call to end it, if men were doing it?
Why do you think they call it #PoundMeToo?
Also racism.
