Why have there been so many female teachers "raping" students lately? Have you noticed that?

Answer 1

You know I think this has probably always gone on but has not been reported as it is about men teachers who do it. I mean to some degree many guys would not mind getting it on with a teacher or several that they have had in the past. I know I had a few that I thought were really pretty back in high school and would not have complained if it had happened. I know that sounds kinda weird but it's true and chances are every guy has had at lest one teacher that they have had a crush on. The thing is that with all the pedophiles out there now and news and all it come to light more than it use to. I would be willing to bet this has gone on as long as the men teachers have been doing this to girl students. Yeah I admit it is sick. I just don't think that it's new. What I find interesting is that there are quite a few of these female teachers who are really beautiful women and seem half way smart, yet they do this. Gee, I feel that I may have missed out on part of my education, lol! Just kidding, it is rather disturbing. The thing is we do not notice women who are pedophiles as easily as we would men that are. Women are seen as loving and caring people. So if a woman seems to take an interest in a child we tend to think of it as a nurturing role and that she just cares about the young boy. When she hugs him, and so on we see it as affection, and that there is no harm. Well, what if a man did that with a female that was not his daughter or even related to him. We would say or think the guy is a pedophile or must have some evil intention, even if he is harmless. You see what I mean? I did a study on pedophiles while in college and it is kinda odd how we view the difference in interactions between a woman and a boy, and a man and a girl. I think that could be a main reason why we have in the past not paid as much attention to this kind of thing. We see the roles of men and women differently when it comes to dealing with children. I hope you understand what I'm trying to say. It's kinda hard to explain and I have forgot all the stats and examples I used in the research paper I did. If I had that I could explain it a little better. =)

Answer 2

As a male teacher who has been retired from high school for fifteen years but still supply teaches in elementary school, I would give the following answer. Technically, in Canada, a male teacher is advised to never touch a female or male student under any circumstances. That being said, it is my opinion that when students know you and become comfortable with you as a teacher, many students are appreciative of the gentle, carefully placed touch that says, "Well done" or "I do care about how you feel." Unfortunately, everyone is now paranoid that every second male teacher and even some females are perverts, so the kids that need a hug or "positive" physical contact don't get it.

Answer 3

This is a question which has no answer at present. It has surprised everyone. Why?

Teacher-worship & fantasing by male students has been going on from time immemorial. This is natural, but it has always been the responsibility of of the (adult) teacher to keep this under control and not let things go any further, to ignore its' existence, even if the teacher feels the same attraction.

I can't figure out how a mature teacher can let this fantasy play out physically. They are only children, for Heavens' sake!

Yes, there is something wrong with teachers who participate in this behavior. They have to be sick. Some of them are indeed the predators.

We don' t know who they are until the damage is already done.

So, woe is us! Difficult question. No answer.

Answer 4

I don't believe that this is a recent epidemic. I believe it has been going on since the beginning of teaching, just now it is being discovered because of mass media. At one time it would have been isolated and not spoken about if it were a female teacher due to the fact that the old myth is that 'females are beyond this' as they are the nurturing mother types and only males would do such things because males are dogs to begin with. Also, men have/had a tendencies to 'sow their wild oats', brag about it in front of their sons and expect there sons to do the same or they were not men; why? Because sons can't get pregnant and it was believed that if a girl got pregnant it was her own fault and she was a whore gold digger. Yet let their daughters sow wild oats and a shot gun would be brought up. Why? Because little girls are the apples of daddy's eye and only a proper boy would be good enough for daddy's little girl; he didn't want no slut in his house.

Answer 5

Its not new the news just reports it more now. Before they didn't want people to know it was going on but now it makes for an entertaining subject. In most cases the young boys don't mind but it is still sick and twisted. There is a lesson to be learned from all of this but now that the teacher is in jail I guess no one is there to teach it.

Answer 6

I believe most of them are innocent, and the kids are just trying to stir up trouble. There are more women being accused, because the number of male teachers is declining. It's just too hard now for men to be teachers with all the accusations going on.

Answer 7

Faster communications and the media. In the past this would be brushed under the rug. Now it's open. I don't think teen pregancy and other problems are worse, they are just more openly publicized.

Answer 8

Where I live, it's mostly men fondling young boys, but we did have a gymnastics coach seducing a young teen student and a fireman having sex with a minor.
Sickness is everywhere...its all about media coverage

Answer 9

I have, and it's just as sick as a male teacher doing it.

They shouldn't get any kind of leniency just because they happen to be a female.

Answer 10

Not really.....sorry, but your chances of getting some that way are slim to none.
