I'd rather not have a porn actor serving as a role model to kids.
Get over yourself. Even if they don't do porn, the kids will make shit up about the ones they find attractive. Or are teachers not allowed to be attractive, either?
There was a rumor at my high school that one of the math teachers used to pose for Playboy back in the day. Whether she did or not (I never found out, and who cares), she knew her shit and was a damn good teacher.
Let people live. For crying out loud.
I’d welcome it. It is an opportunity to teach young adults about consent and how women are not sexual objects. What’s next? Your religion says not to drink alcohol and your teacher is a bartender after work. *Straight to jail.
Seeing this when talking about porn...
When would you tell kids that women are not sexual objects? At the strip club? Is this pornography ?
Because it was during Victorian times. And before photos they painted it. Pornography never was the problem. It’s sexual repression and the way men view women that is.

That's great. But there's a shortage of teachers so maybe unless they start paying more to attract people that don't have to resort to pornography, we should probably not put more restrictions on teachers, particularly if they are pointless puritan pearl clutching.
