Why are you slut shaming people who are grossly underpaid for the very challenging and valuable public service they provide? Maybe if you and our elected leaders at all levels of government realized the value teachers provide, and how difficult it is to find good teachers anymore, you might see your way to compensating them with a living wage.

The irony of demanding a higher moral standard from our teachers versus the politicians who we elect to be public leaders seems to be lost on so many people. It's not seen as a disqualifier for politicians to use their stations to fill their pockets with money, but for anyone else to find a side hustle to supplement their income is abhorrent. If you're so concerned about the message their OnlyFans work is communicating, maybe consider the lesson undervaluing teachers is communicating as well?

Shame on you for not seeing the root cause - few people willingly engage in sex work unless their situations are dire. Get off your soapbox and maybe do something to change the situation so as they won't need to debase themselves in a way you find so offensive.
