I'm a teacher and they specifically have guidelines on what you're behavior online should be. Keeping your socials clean. Making sure my interactions with students are kept professional.

The fact is that kids these days are nosey and great researchers. Having an only fans as an educator has a huge risk of students discovering it, and will ultimately change the relationship between student and teacher from a student/ teacher relationship to a viewer/ pornstar one.

This is the most sane, rational summation of this debacle I've read yet.

This thread seems to fall into the "people who have no idea about the realities of teaching being confidently incorrect".

As someone somewhere said; if you want to lose faith in comment sections, go to a discussion on a topic that you are an expert on.

Thanks for adding some sanity and nuance to this conversation. I agree with the general sentiment here that stuff that a person does on the side of their career should not affect their employment for most careers, but when it is a teacher, especially one that works with minors, it's a bit of a different dynamic.

That being said, we should absolutely pay teachers enough so that they don't have to get side gigs to survive. It is disgusting how little teachers are paid for the amount of work they do, and their importance to society as a whole.

This whole ordeal sounds like a classic reddit moment.

And depending on their age, they might even have sex. People want one easy solution to all problems, but being a teacher and a regular office worker is not the same, hence the standards are different too.

Here's a wild idea that seems to never catch on in 'murica - have the parents actually educate their children about how socially unacceptable that'd be.
