That's a new one

"Our public education system, which doesn't allow strippers to be teachers, is failing because it allows strippers to be teachers" :screwy

I'm retired. However, in my life I was fortunate to have many teachers that did not support the social order and actively promoted the subversion of the current order. They were not only not fired, but quite popular with the students.




Stop flattering yourself by pretending that you're some kind of authority. My family has been involved in the public education system for longer than you've been alive. However, unlike you, I won't dishonestly try to dismiss your opinion because your experience is inferior to mine.

That's because I was taught properly. Therefore, I need not rely on "arguments from authority", which is another logical fallacy.




Oh yeah, I'm just an iconoclast for suggesting that you might be wrong. After all, if it weren't for you and the ban on strippers, the entire system would fall :lamo



Don't worry. I won't hold it against you. After all, you're an educator. It's not like you have to say things that make sense or get fired. Just as long as you don't take your clothes off for money, you're good to go.

I find this strange that there are two different conversations that are going on due to this whole stripper thing, and you're not quite getting that.

1) Strippers as teachers
2) Underpinnings of the teaching profession

In order for you to promote the notion of the former, you seek to undermine the latter. For you, teachers are not seen as the promoters of morality, teachers should not be seen as pillars to their community with high public image standards to maintain. I am arguing against those notions, while saying that even though I personally do not hold strippers in high esteem and would not currently want them to be employed as teachers, when the entire societal attitudes toward strippers changes, so too would their status as professionals change. If that seems quaint that I and most in the profession hold on to these ideas of high morality, image, and tradition, so be it. I will gladly take on the label of elitist, traditionalist, and conservative.

In regard to logical fallacies, let's be honest. You rely upon authority nearly all the time. No sane person would act like Descartes on a regular basis. This logical fallacy nonsense is showcasing.

The bolded statement assumes that what you call the "underpinnings of the teaching profession" are accurate.

While I do see teachers of being promoters of morality, in a sense, they are not the promoters of a particular moral code; Instead they promote critical thinking in their students, who would then go on to form their own moral code.

As far as being pillars of the community with high public image standards to maintain, I see nothing of the sort. Maybe this is because I grew up in a large city, and so had no idea about the private lives of my teachers other than what they chose to share with me.

And once again, you rely on the fallacy of the majority, as if something must be true simply because a majority of your peers believe it to be true.

As far as elitism goes, I think it has it places, and teaching is one of them as long as it's an elitism of merit. However, I disagree that teaching is traditionalist. Our schools have been a conduit of social change for quite some time. Sex ed, anti-bullying initiatives, busing, etc have all been designed with undermining traditional beliefs in mind.

And as far as fallacies goes, I made no claims of being without flaws. I am as human as you are. However, when a belief of mine is shown to be fallacious, I don't continue to claim it is true, in spite of being flawed.
 
I'm seeing a lot of very insecure men on this thread.

Let's say that they are institutionalized and more or less enforced.

They don't just produce critical thinking. They promote moral behavior, one that, blandly understood, reiterates the morality of society at large....character building, honesty, some understanding of tolerance, generosity, and so forth.

You would have to explain portions of their contract, then. You're expected to be part of and representative of the school community and the community that exists outside of the building.

Not that it is true, but how it runs. Many things in life are social constructions, but we adhere to them regardless, in large part, because it is normalized.

And the disciplines themselves are seen as traditionalist. Historians, for the most part, are quite liberal in their social sensibilities, but as an academic discipline, it's immensely traditionalist. As teachers, however, those conservative intuitions come up again.

I doubt that. If the concept of power in a family relationship is a social construction, do you still uphold it as a good idea, ever find yourself equating it with truth? Apply that to all sorts of concepts like democracy, minority liberation, and so forth. We rely upon logical fallacies all the time. They are our life. Pointing out that I argued on behalf of a logical fallacy is obvious.

YES, young boys who are going through puberty would most DEFINITELY find a teacher who takes her clothes off and performs faux sexual acts to be a distraction in the classroom and would most likely be staring at her body parts rather than anything she is writing on the board. To deny this is seriously delusional about the nature of little boys and their curiosity about women and sex.

I would argue that the level of their institutionalization and enforcement varies from high to none.

IOW, even within the educational "establishment", the idea that they are the "underpinnings of the teaching profession" is subject to much disagreement.

I would argue that proper teaching methods do more than result in "bland understanding" and does not limit itself to reiterating the morality of the current society, but also informs its' students about moral codes from other times and cultures. At least, that was what my education entailed.

That is not true. All you've done here is repeat yourself and insist that it's not only true, but right. I think it's neither.

I agree that most of us do adhere to most social constructions. However, that is not a justification for a policy requiring teachers to adhere to all of those social constructions or the teaching of them.

We are not talking about the traditional modes of inquiry, but rather, the teaching of traditional morality.

I agree that the concept of power in a family relationship is a social construction and I believe it should be taught as such. What I don't support is the teacher promoting a morality associated with that. That is for each individual student to decide for themselves.

Students who don't pay attention in class, or act in a disruptive manner, can be disciplined.

When I was a student, I had many teachers who had "distracting" characteristics (ex odd behaviorisms, large breasts, accents, etc) but that was no excuse for bad behavior on the part of students. They, and I, still had to perform

What does that have to do with her being a stripper though? Wouldn't they have a tendency to "oggle" any physically attractive female educator?
 
Of the guys (who married strippers/former strippers) and strippers/former strippers I know.....Hell the **** no.
It's actually incorporated into my rule book for dating.

Don't marry strippers, nothing but trouble.
Now with all that said, I'm sure there are some who are emotionally stable, I just haven't met one.
 
it is a big secret aroudn here but I work with a couple of x strippers. They seem fine.

Just my experience but strippers tend to go into stripping because they have emotional issues and are not people you want to live your life with long term.
Using sex to gain money is manipulation.
Now if that stayed at the strip club, then it may work out ok.

Many strippers don't have that line drawn and view men as marks rather than life partners.
I have a few family members who are/were strippers, a couple of friends that married/were married to strippers, etc.
These people cause drama and grief.
 
For those that have experience I'd still like to know how sex with strippers is better then your usual cross wearing bar whore.

Because you know, they''re pretty nasty too.

The one I ran across could go forever, seemed to never dry up, loved to party, and was perfectly OK with being ****ed the minute she awoke. Adding that to the bj's when I came home from work and that she loved to finger herself whenever we drove anywhere, and I probably would have married her had she not also had two DUI's and an insatiable appetite for Xanex, which gave her all sorts of memory problems. Needless to say, Harry G nailed it---stripper bitches got issues.

Sounds like some of the Catholic girls I've dated.
 
I've got to say, I'm kind of surprised that this thread is even still going.

"Dating / marrying strippers is generally a bad idea." Everyone got the gist of it?

'Nuff said. :shrug:

I suspect a lot of little boys and particularly adolescent boys see their pretty teachers that way anyway, whether or not she takes off her clothes. :)

Make no mistake. I am acutely aware of the obvious "self righteous moral order vs hedonistic chaos" vibe flowing through the last few pages of this thread. However, that is really no different than any other discussion dealing with this sort of subject matter.

Really though, does it honestly require 48 pages to retread that same old tired ground?

The sex industry and dating strippers is bad...

Don't you think that would be 10 times worse if a group of boys found out she was a stripper on the internet or something? They'd be freaking out if they found out their teacher was a stripper. :lol: It would be totally distracting.

Well, like I said to Gathomas, just knowing that their teacher strips on weekends or whatever would make it that much more distracting IMO.
