What would a parent even say? “Teacher does not have control over which ads display on web browsers.” Obviously??

I mean, I sure don't want to see that ugly naked photo but it pops up on practically every site right now!


Why are you an adult who needs to consult with friends and message boards to advise you on what to do? Your gut said do nothing. So you go looking for reasons to do something?

+1

Mentioning this would be a jerk move. It was an accident, and no one was harmed. I’m *pretty* sure the teacher has learned his lesson on this one.

I don't get how we can look at women in lingerie every day but consider a somewhat undressed man to be the height of offense.

This is hilarious!
Thanks for making me laugh, I needed it this morning.


Lol, he also has some nice socks on....

At least the teacher wasn't wanking off, so bigger mistakes CAN obviously occur! I'd let it go after a good laugh.

Yes. This kind of thing happens and learning how to deftly handle it is a good thing.

I haven't been in this exact situation, but I would know exactly what to do in this case: nothing. Because how dumb and wrong would I be to judge a teacher for an accident?



Especially when the dude isn't even naked, my god.

This is not a big deal. The teacher didn't do this purposely. Nobody was harmed by this. If your kid has ever gone to a European beach they've seen guys in speedos.

Non-issue.

Are you OP? If so this is laughably ironic. People simply encouraged you to be LESS judgemental.

I don't like to see women objectified. And I don't want to see that man with a sling around his parts either.


Great, however adverts are still going to display bras, bikinis, and yeah, men in less clothing. So I wouldn't whinge to a teacher about adverts. Just as it would be insane if someone saw a magazine on your desk, didn't like the advert, and went to your boss about that. We agree that's bizarre behaviour?
