Gay Teacher Question for Freepers (Vanity)

The problem is not pedophilia when it comes to homosexual and heterosexual teachers but with adults who are attracted to children who have already entered puberty and are developing their adult sexual characteristics. While pedophiles may not always descriminate their victims by sex, the victims of adults who go after adolescents do seem to correspond to the sexual orientation of the adult. That's why the gay priests molested boys, lesbian gym teachers go after girls, some heterosexual female teachers have been having sex with male students, etc. Before modern times, children married and started having children at puberty. Our minds are not necessarily programmed to draw a line at 18 years old. That requires self-control and thought because our modern society expects adults to back off and not use their stature and experience to take advantage of people that young who don't always know how to make good decisions.

Is it because of men's predatory nature or is there another reason you prefer dyke teachers to gay men?

Predatory nature. I would be more concerned about a gay man being a chiled molestor than a gay woman.

I don't want to appear to be a hay-seed here, but what do you mean by: "pitchers or catchers?" Not that is is important, but, I never heard that term before.

[Modernman]

teachers have been fired for being merely PRESENT during raids on sex clubs.

I guess that goes to the question of what employers can fire you for. That's a topic for another day.

Barring a conviction, I would not fire my employees for engaging in non-mainstream sexual practices. Unless they were talking about it at work, of course.

[Phantom Lord]

Just think about it for a minute and you will get it.

[MinnesotaLibertarian]

no, no, and no

[Skooz]

Private message! Private message !!

Should schools be required to disclose a homosexual teacher to mothers and fathers?

Should a mother and father have the right to have a child moved to a different non homosexual teacher? (WITHOUT A NEGATIVE ENTRY IN THE CHILD'S PERMANENT RECORD)

NOT everyone can homeschool or send kids to private school.

[scripter]

It depends. Are they pitchers or catchers?

Indeed. And does the definition include oral...

I had a few gay teachers, and the only ones I had problems with were the flamers hateful towards the United States and straights.

I had a gay (male) teacher in 6th grade - best teacher I ever had - BUT none of us knew that he was gay; we only found out years later. He was let go by the district the next year, and I've always thought what a treasure they lost. This was in 1969. He was just a really inspiring teacher - Mr Flowers, if you can believe the name. 6'6" and about 400 lbs. (No one ever gave him any backtalk.)

However - and this is the important point - he NEVER EVER talked about sex, never referred to anything in his personal life, never made any inappropriate remarks or did any acts that would cause any child offense.

[HitmanLV]

No, it wouldn't give me cause for alarm.

I am pretty sure a few of my teachers in my time were gay (I can think of at least three). I turned out great.

[Clemenza]

Funny, the lesbo gym teachers (I had two) left the ladies alone. We did have a male gym teacher in high school that was getting Lewinskis from female students, however.

[Modernman]

Should schools be required to disclose a homosexual teacher to mothers and fathers?

I'd say no. It strikes me as an invasion of privacy.

I have no problem with a catholic priest teaching my kid.\

just because one priest was a pedophile does noty mean they all are.

You seem to have a problem with Catholics, which makes you a bigot.

What denomination are you? How did you feel being taught by your protestant/anglican/ united/ Morman pedophile priest?

[longtermmemmory]

you and your business.

This was public school teachers with governemnt jobs and unions.

As an employer you would be naive NOT to fire someone just because they were not convicted. If a bartender is caught selling booze or cigarettes to a 20 year old agent who looks 21, then a verdict finds him/her not guilty; you still have your own liability insurance to consider so out they go.

We have not even discussed the fact that homosexuals have a lifespan in the low 40's. If a private employer can fire a smoker for a legal behavior, then recreational sex is just as much a liability.

[MinnesotaLibertarian]

If a teacher (Mr. Jones) tells his class: "I'm gay." He's talking about what he does in the bedroom. It's inappropriate. That kind of talk does not belong in school.

How is that talking about what he does in the bedroom anymore so than saying "I'm straight"? He could be attracted to men (the definition of being gay) and still never have any sexual encounters with other men.

[Phantom Lord]

If a private employer can fire a smoker for a legal behavior, then recreational sex is just as much a liability.

So a single guy who likes to pick up chics at bars a couple nights a week for recreational sex should be subject to firing for this?

[standing united]

Did I say something wrong? I only asked, because I really do not know what that term refers to. I hope that I did not violate any post rules?

I was talking about firing people for non-mainstream sexual practices. If an employee was arrested for rape, I would let them go, unless I thought they were innocent.

However, if an employee was gay or a swinger or whatever, I would not fire them (and would actually prefer not to know)
