PUBLIC OPINION > Teacher Who Did Porn Shouldn't Be Fired!

SodaHead News 2012/03/08 14:00:00
A junior high teacher in Southern California was recently placed on leave when administrators found out she may have been in movies. Adult movies. The details are vague, as they should be, but we'll give you what we know: It was probably her (an administrator saw it and confirmed), it was probably somewhat recent (though it's unclear if she was employed at the school while it was filmed), and pretty much every kid at the school knows about it (the superindenent told them not to look it up, so they totally did.) With that, we let the public do the talking and asked if she deserved to be fired.

teacher

Most people agree the teacher in question should remain employed, even those who admitted they didn't like the idea. As long as she wasn't bring it up in class, it's simply not relevant to the job. One commenter wrote, "She should not be fired, but maybe transferred to another school. Unless there is something in her contract that forbids doing porn, then they shouldn't fire her." The superintendent, on the other hand, received a good deal of criticism. The kids might not even know about it if he hadn't ordered the rest of the teachers to announce it. Sure, word gets around, but did they really need to air it out like that? Bad move, Mr. Chancer.

Men Don't Mind

Overall, approximately one in three voters thought she should be fired. But when we broke it down by gender, the results looked very different. Close to half of female voters called for the ax (44%), while only one in four men did the same (27%). The implication here is pretty obvious... Men are more concerned about education. (What did you think we were gonna say?)

Moderates Mind the Most

Interestingly, conservative voters did not have the most traditional opinion. They were much more likely to have her fired than liberals, but moderates had them beat by a good 9%. We wish we had an explanation for that, but we don't. Moderates just don't want porn stars teaching their kids.

Parental Advisory

Speaking of "their kids," we had to throw parents in on this one. They were more likely to advocate firing the teacher than most, but unlike moderates they still fell below a majority vote (47%). And for good measure, we also took a look at the student vote. They're willing to give her another chance.

    Pornography is a profession. So is teaching, and I believe one pays substantially more. I don't even think the question deserves an answer so I'll say this: pay our teachers more.

    I see zero problems with this unless she is using her school outfit from one of her shoots to teach in, and even then I wouldn't mind, at least I'd be paying attention to something.

    What she does in her off time is her business! As long as she is doing her teaching job successfully, she should not be fired. Furthermore firing her would set a bad presedent, that would allow DOE to fire any teacher whom they didn't approve of in their personal lives. This whole thing just shows how uptight many adults are about sex, and that they are passing this uptightness on to our children. Ignorance is bliss in most cases, but when it comes to sex, Ignorance leads to unwed teenage mothers, and more STDs.

    I somewhat agree with her being fired. The fact that she may have been in porn may supercede her role as a teacher. In other words, her students won't see her as their teacher, but instead as a porn star, and this could inhibit their ability to learn anything while they're in her class. It may also make it more difficult for her students and colleagues to take her seriously as an educator.

    I think it should depend on what she's teaching and the age range, because if the students are old enough to be looking at those sort of videos it's a definitive no because if they happen upon it it could be disastrous

    A bunch of sodaheads claim to be moderate in their profiles but, according to this and several other recent polls, they're actually conservatives. Of course honesty has no place in any conservative framework of morality so I'm not surprised.

    How did they come about information that she MAY have done made a porn film? If he hadn't announced it, the students probably would've never known. I'd only be concerned is if the students knew her from the movie she made. Teachers are people too, meaning they'll do stuff every day people do. She shouldn't be fired over that. TEACHERS HAVE A LIFE OUTSIDE THE CLASSROOM.

    IF SHE WAS PAYED A LIVING WAGE THAN SHE WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN FORCED TO LOOK FOR A SECOND LEGAL JOB. PORN IS A LEGAL PROFESSION AND UNLESS TEACHING CONTRACTS MAKE HER THESLAVE OF THE SCHOOL SHE HAS A RIGHT TO DO ANY LEGAL ACTICVITY WHEN NOT WORKING FOR THE SCHOOL

    I'll bet that you cannot even define the word "communism"! Give it a try for us? And you obviously know nothing about what got us into this economic mess. It had nothing to do with communists, but more to do with Republicans --- the bankers who lowered the standards on purpose for people to obtain loans, so that they could bundle up those bad loans and sell them to unsuspecting investors. The bankers did not care if the borrowers were bad risks because they could get their money up front, and the buyer was stuck with the bad mortgages! Mrs. Brooksley Born who was Chairwomen of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission tried to warn us of the danger (involved in Hedge Funds and Over the counter dervivatives) was silenced by her bossess at the Treasury (Bernanke and Greenspan) and by a Congressional Committee, which changed her job descripition so that she could have nothing to do with the problem.

    Get the DVDs: "Inside Job", "The Warning", and "The Meltdown". they will explain it all! Some libraries have these available for checkout, or you can buy them over the net.

    I think the pinko Communist hater that doesn't know anything outside the world of Faux probably blames teachers unions for bankrupting the States. That's what Faux tells them so they fall for that "fair and balanced" propoganda.

    We had one in high school. She wore miniskirts and like to sit at the back of the classroom in a regular student desk. Wonder if she figured out why only the boys dropped their pencils.
