    For the record, I'd have an issue with the guys from the movie Jackass teaching too.

    I will only agree with this if we separate religion from everything. You keep your religion in church and that's it.

    So if Ray Jay smashed Kim Kardashian in like Georgia and sold the tape to some p*rn company, that would be illegal? I know what you mean though. Anyhow, there were rumors that our middle school English teacher used to be in Playboy. She was old by then though. Old p*rn or not, middle school boys will be distracted by good looking teachers.

    As far as I know film p*rn in states other than ca and fl is illegal.
    I think you have a good point here. Yeah, how about pose nude in a magazine?
    Is it about how much we approve, for lack of a better term, porness? That will be a strange standard for a school district to apply.

    Yes I'd fire her. In the real world there are many professions where your past can complicate your future. Having it on video makes it impossible to escape. It would be very disruptive to a classroom if the students all think of her as a p*rn star. It could easily create a problematic learning environment and I think everyone knows that if they think about it rationally.

    It's not that I'm condemning her past as a p*rn star. That's her free choice. However, that career complicates your ability to function properly in many professions, particularly ones where you need to be able to be respected.

    She may have more street-cred to her students depending on how she conducts herself as a teacher. If she acts properly and does her job being role model, would that be a positive message to her students? Why wouldn't she be respected based on her current behavior and why do we punisher her if the past act is behind her?

    I think the circumstances involved would make it difficult or impossible for her to do her job.

    Maybe if she taught at an all girls school or something.

    It is unfortunate, but when she choose to take the $10,000 she knew her past could come back to haunt her, especially having a career with children. It is unfortunate and shouldn't matter, but she knew or should have known it would.

    Maybe they didn't force some of y'all to read the scarlet letter.

    Street cred for a teacher doing p*rn? To the street kids, she is just a ho that drops her panties for a dollar.

    I can only imagine the funny sh** that the kids are saying. It's like Superbad on steroids, during all classes not just her class.

    Why do companies check your past jobs?

    Positive message being. . . . you can do what ya want
    in time. . .you can clean up and everything is ok . . .

    Actions really don't have long term consequences.

    With things like sexting and female teachers having sex with kids more often
    [or being reported more often]
    Why take the chance?

    being liberal or conserative has nothing to do with what you think of this situation.

    You can be liberal and still think it may not be the best idea to have a p*rn star as a teacher, or you can be conservative. why do you have to drag political views into this

    I don't think being a p*rn star should preclude you from being anything else. Why would people think less of p*rn stars than teachers anyway? :)

    I have no moral problem with the actors in p*rnography.
    I don't think it's something to be ashamed about.
    If she can do the job, then she can do the job.

    We live in the days of Facebook. Hopefully, our private lives are as sordid as her recorded one, and she had the foresight to use an assumed name. Pretty soon, everything considered potentially embarrassing about anyone, will be locked away in a time capsule of 1s and 0s, and archived for antiquity.

    If she can teach, let the woman teach.

    Companies do creditian and background check before hiring mainly to verify if the candidate has lied about resume and whether has done something illegal in the past.
    But for every profession there is something extra that needs to be checked. For example, nurses aere asked if they have been deciplined or complained about.
    Then should teacher be asked if they appear in p*rn, performed in strip club (i actually personally know a teacher who did that in college to pay her tuition and her dad's medical bill), and how about walking nude in the public? We
    We ask her to bear consequence of her past action for her display of sexuality. To address that concern of risking kids with openly sexual teacher, should every teacher be fired for even ever watching the p*rn? What is the difference bewteen actually being in p*rn and wanting being in one in terms of sexual-ness you concern about

    They will eventually get over it and find someone else to masturbate to.

    We have stretched the line of 'tolerance' so far that there seems to be no line.
    basically we are reaching an ANYTHING GOES mentality

    Watching p*rn and being in one . . . are not the same.

    I guess being in p*rn is 'no big deal' these days

    QUESTION: What is she was a former prostitute?

    I don't think the fact she had sex for money years earlier means that she cannot be a good teacher. Indeed I have known former dancers, prostitutes, drug dealers etc. that have buried their past and done well.

    The problem in this case is that her exploits are on video forever and easy viewable. Ten years from now her anal group sex exploits will be one click away. Ideally people would look past it, as she broke no laws, but she knew when she signed up for DP that it would haunt her for years.
