How do we feel about teachers fired for posting homemade porn?

Having a choice of multiple video rental stores with a ‘’‘back room’‘’ for porn in the 80s in suburban New Jersey must be a false memory then.

Because kids + sex + teacher = ridicule and mocking. I don’t make the kid rules, I just observe them.

And you think kids wouldn’t ridicule a victim of infidelity because…

What do you mean? It wasn’t in your pocket all the time, but it was no further away than the local convenience store. And that’s only if you were bored with your current porn.

Yeah, before Internet you typically had to come up with your own hardcopy or attend a special theatre. Those were the two easiest ways at that time. Go back another 20 years and you don’t have VCRs or DVDs either, then just film. Another 100 years and no film at all. I’m assuming people still masturbated back then.

No Youtube 30 years ago either. I think that’s enough history of video.

30 years ago, despite being on air, Seinfeld was not particularly widely available. Nothing like today.

Why doesn’t that formula apply to the teacher who was cheated on?

This is also true of every movie out at that time. Are all those movies more “widely available” today because I can stream them or buy a copy on Amazon or YouTube in under a minute?

Because I wouldn’t when I was a kid, and I was a pretty typical kid.

I may have ridiculed a porn actor teacher when I was a kid (along with classmates). I’m not proud of that, but…I was a kid.

Yep, and we had pornographic drawings to masturbate to, and we were mighty thankful for the finer ones from Paris!

The wikipedia page “sexuality in Ancient Rome” has some frescoes from I believe Pompeii that are downright pornographic. No link of course.

You know, I’ve disagreed with you pretty consistently in this thread, but I suspect you’re having as much fun with it as I am. :grinning:

If they did that to a teacher who was cheated on would that be sufficient grounds to fire the teacher?

Maybe we were bigger assholes in my day than yours, or maybe kids are nicer in Europe (You’re European IIRC?). But when I was in school you’d absolutely be savaged for that.

There was a girl in my grade whose mom had an affair with the principal, and people made fun of her for that.

Back in the day you could go to a theatre to watch a movie. But you couldn’t jack off to it, you got arrested for that. Whether it was a porno or not. There were special theatres, you could still get arrested but yeah they existed. I don’t know what the ratio of all movie watching to porn was back then, probably a lot less porn was watched because of the barriers to entry.

No porn on over the air TV either, they had standards for that.

No OnlyFans either, so if some teacher wanted to appear in porn he or she had to do a lot more work to know the right people I suppose.

It’s ironic that your name is Jay-Z but you appear to have never heard of the concept of a ‘sex tape’.

You can go down a rabbit hole of “what ifs”, but there are degrees of “behavior unbecoming a teacher” and I believe teacher porn is above the threshold of public opinion. Being cheated on falls way below.

Take it the other absurd direction. Would you be OK if your young daughter’s male teacher defecated in front of her every day in the classroom? Why not? Defecating is legal. So long as it’s done far enough away, it’s not a health hazard. Everybody defecates. But we’re expected to do it in private. Should we change that rule?

There were folks who starred in their own porn BBS back in 94. You couldn’t watch live. Video quality was poor. It took forever to download a file. But they existed.

Classroom behavior is always fair game. Onlyfans is not a classroom activity.
Defecation at home is fine. Heck, they can even post a video if they like. But behave in the classroom. That’s where I draw the line

How about if the teacher takes dumps on a scat-porn website?
