These female teachers seem to fall into at least 2 categories (maybe more, I’m inviting collaboration here), with different ‘moral’ status in my book:

First, there’s the romantic fantasists (like the here) who are deeply but delusionally in love with the boy-man student. They are in the throes of a form of temporary insanity (not the legal kind, however) where they are locked into a romantic fixation bordering on psychosis.

Then there are those who fall into the “I’m finally living out my fantasy” where they become the “popular with the boys (plural)” they never really were when then were teens. This can also be a form of temporary insanity, but it takes on a more predatory form, involved drinking, hosting parties, taking on multiple boys, etc. Obviously, from a moral perspective this is much more evil than the first category. Another form of this is to engage in the acts with one boy, but in front of other boys.

You can go through the cases (there are hundreds by now) and categorize them in “Group A” and “Group B”. Now maybe sub-groups would emerge, based on, i.e., the age of the target-boys. Certainly there’s a big difference moreally and operationally (i.e., who was the initial aggressor) between 17 y.o.’s versus 11 y.o.’s

This teacher is also the mother of an 8 year old girl. A great Mom!

People seem desperate to keep the illusion of “teacher = God” to every student. If they acknowledge any romantic or sexual power against her, then their world falls apart.

From the first grade, I saw all of my teachers not as something special, but just some lady who got hired by the school system. Their general bitterness at life never escaped my notice either. (The cute ones didn’t teach very long...)
