Had to supplement her $42,000 per year teacher salary with OF and made nearly $1 million in six months (almost 50 times as her salary) before the school caught wind of it and forced her to resign. Got a new job out of education and was fired five days later when they discovered news articles about her.

Edit: To those basically saying she had it coming because she made her OF account public...

  1. Sex work is real, valid work.
  2. There is nothing wrong with sex work. Sex-shaming is Puritanical horseshit.
  3. "But her students could find her OF!" is a problem their parents should have to solve. It is not her responsibility to use an alias, because of points 1 and 2.
  4. Every other argument criticizing her for her sex work during her non-teaching hours is fucking moot.

IMO, we NEED teachers. We DON'T need more porn. And a high school teacher doing porn seems like a conflict of interest. And frankly it's not about prudes as much as some of these comments want it to be. This sort of optics exists for lots of jobs.

If she wants to quit being a teacher to do porn, go for it. But, and I know this is going to be a wild concept for people, but you can't get everything you want the way you want, i.e. "you can't have your cake and eat it too".

    How are the two related? Why are you saying that it is a conflict of interest? It literally is about prudes, otherwise people wouldn't give a shit and "optics" as you call it wouldn't matter.

    I get it you're hot for teacher... Considering you put optics in quotes I'm going to guess you're a kid yet. "As you call it", fucking lol.

    If someone wants to do porn do porn. If someone wants to have a lot of casual relationships and private of their own home go for it. But if you're going to sit there and act naive that teenagers don't have access to the internet and don't know what porn sites are and don't talk... And you can't figure out how that's a conflict of interest... When you're supposed to educate the kids. That's a mental disconnect on your part, and everyone else at downloaded me that I can also assume that just wanted to see a naked teacher because fetish.

    Try again weak troll. All you are worried about is "what would the people think?!" Which when you don't care what people think about you, is not an issue at all. She's there to do a job - teach people. Her also being a porn star doesn't make her job any different, it makes prudes like you worry, because you can't imagine a world in which someone doesn't care about what people think about them.

    So a troll in your mind is just someone that doesn't agree with you... ok.

    You're making a lot of wild assumptions, acting like you know me at all. You REALLY need me to be this mega-prude because that's the only truth you know in your mind, it's the only way your argument holds water. Gosh, would be weird if I said... she could do porn I wouldn't care... but being doing porn AND being a teacher, probably not so much.

    You act like teenagers don't go to porn sites. They do. You act like teenagers don't talk. They do. Your acting like kids wouldn't lie about their age and use their parents money to pay for crap online (porn or otherwise), they do. You're acting like a class full of hormone fueled teenagers are going to be respectful and pay attention in class and not be disruptive... delusional. You seem to believe actions shouldn't' have consequences so long as you agree with it because it fits in your personal world view and everyone should just shut up and agree. Sorry, world doesn't work like that.

    I don't know how to help you. Honestly at this point, trying to show you how teacher selling porn is not ok... it's like trying to argue with a Tumper that the election wasn't stolen. Both of you have dug your heals in and only subscribe to your truth and everyone else, every reasonable argument be damned, and you lash out to anyone who doesn't agree.

    So, I'm checking out of this pointless conversation with you.

    Nah, you are a mega prude and don't even see it. I said already - people who don't care what people think about them don't give two shits. If you think a class full of teenagers can't "pay attention" because their teacher does porn, you are part of the problem. Otherwise, no attractive young teacher can teach, since "horny teenagers". You know jack shit about teaching, about this topic. You just throw in your worthless 3 cents with a centuries old "would someone please think of the CHILDREN?"
