Where were teachers like this when I was in school?
The females were all at least 60 with the surface texture of a prune and bulges in all the wrong places. You wouldn’t hit them with someone else’s 10 foot pole!
Amen.
In high school I had TWO female teachers that had taught my mother, and were not young then.
Because it was a very small school, the male teachers were mostly young guys just starting, who moved to bigger, better paying schools after getting some experience.
Naturally, the girls had NO problem with that.
I've the very same question: all I ever had all the way through high school was Sister Mary Killakid, Sister Mary Elephant, and Sister Mary Hitler (mustache included).
Kids today have it sooooo easy! Of course, other than sexual matters from caring teachers, they ain't learnin' squat!
Ah....leftist public education. What would we do without it?
You're not alone in remembering them as being mostly older women.
I'm guessing that back then teaching was something educated women did after their kids were grown, as a way to bring in extra money in their retirement years.
