[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worked for many years in an elementary school. There were never very many male teachers. Some of them were really great teachers. Others, not so much. However, parents generally loved the male teachers no matter what because they just assumed male teachers were good, I guess. Or they liked the idea of a male role model. Not totally sure, but I can tell you some of those guys had no business working with kids. Either they were very weak teachers, they were creepy, or both. Same is true for women of course, some have no business working with kids, but people do not automatically assume they are great teachers just because they are women. The unconditional love for males in a teaching role is a bit of a weird dynamic and inappropriate overreaction. [/quote] I think far more people are of the opinion of OP, that there’s something creepy and off about male teachers/caregivers.[/quote] That’s not true at all. [/quote] Just look at the responses on this thread! People "want to be okay with it", but they're not. [/quote]
