Teacher bought an ex students only fans?

Do we know if she performs or pis3s or whatever under her real name?

Well no but I’m sort of assuming if people pay to see you on only fans then there’s got to be something about you. If she was selling a weird, niche, kink I’d actually find it easier to understand as he might be turned on specifically by weird niche kink rather than idea of a former pupil

Not creepy ex-teachers, no. Because it crosses a line she isn't comfortable with. And since women have bodily autonomy and even those engaged in sex work are allowed to withdraw consent then actually a woman doesn't have to be fine with any man who wants to subscribe to her OnlyFans - she's allowed to judge and allowed to choose. A woman can sell her pictures, videos, interactions and whatever online but not to anyone and everyone who wants to buy. Men can buy sexual gratification but they can't buy respect.

You're fine with your friend selling her wares but you're not fine with men buying them? That just smacks of hypocrisy.

Fine by me. The more we start shaming people who do, the better.

So lets publish all viewers of all porn

🤨 men who buy onlyfans are disgusting and have no respect for women. Bollocks to his "private life" that involves buying women like objects.

They're both as bad as each other

Again, it's so important in schools to report all safeguarding concerns. Sometimes they may be nothing. Sometimes they can't be proven. Sometimes they're a smaller piece of a bigger picture. Sometimes they identify a pattern and protect the vulnerable.

I agree with @WearyAuldWumman that you only remember a handful of students. But no one on here can say that his version of those 'star pupils' that stick in our minds aren't the attractive girls that he keeps a mental note of for his own gratification. This action, while not illegal though potentially in breach of his school's social media policy and therefore actually a disciplinary matter, would certainly be in line with that. Of course it may not be the case but no one here can prove it isn't, and his own behaviour isn't doing him any favours here.

Or he has done, you have no way of proving otherwise so reporting it would get you nowhere, he's doing nothing illegal

No you really can't guarantee that. It seems rather unlikely that he's landed on her page by coincidence.

I can guarantee he won’t have a clue who she even is!

This. His private life is his private life. Does she think that only openly dodgy blokes are on only fans? Does she not have any higher aspirations than prostituting herself?

Sorry - haven't managed to do partial quotes on here yet.

I'd take issue only with the assertion that he "must recognise her".

If you're working in a secondary school, you're seeing around 200 pupils a week, maybe more in some subjects.

I've taught thousands of pupils over the years and any time I've had an adult former pupil bump into me, I've had to ask who they are because they've changed so much.

I did have a situation a few weeks ago where I thought that a young woman looked familiar (at a church service) but wasn't sure. She asked me whether I'd worked at X High School, which was when I realised that I was right. Still couldn't remember her name however. It can be embarrassing, but after you've been teaching a long time, you don't remember everyone - usually only a handful of 'star' pupils (for want of a better expression) or the wee reprobates who ran you a merry dance. The exception would be your very first classes - they stick in your mind more.

One time where I did recognise a name - but not the fully grown man standing in front of me - was when a school community police officer turned out to be one of my former pupils...and yes, he'd been a wee horror at school. (He laughed that becoming a police officer at a school was his penance.)

The OP doesn't say if the former student is attractive.

This thread has at least prompted me to find out what the safeguarding policy around social media is at my daughters' school. Having assumed it would be the same as my former schools where I wouldn't have been allowed to accept a former pupil's Facebook friend request four years after they left (not that I'd want to because I never viewed the children in my class - and they are still children at 16 when you're teaching them - as potential friends and certainly not as future sexual prospects!), I am shocked to see on this thread that other schools may be more lax and that so many people apparently see nothing wrong with this man's behaviour.

No, I don't expect my daughters to go on OnlyFans by the way so I don't anticipate this exact situation for them. But if their science teacher right now is masturbating to OF footage of a young woman who four years ago was sitting in her school uniform in that classroom, I don't want him around my children. I wonder that anyone else could be comfortable with that.

I'd also be interested to know if OF is as protective of its creators as it apparently is of its customers, and if they can report subscribers who stalk or harass them without being in breach of data protection. I'm not saying he is a stalker, but if it escalates then I hope she can take action- and I'd certainly hope she can block him from seeing her content.

Then clearly it’s a disciplinary matter for the school.

It's vile and creepy. I find all of the people watching only fans vile and creepy, not just the science teacher.
He must recognize her. He really shouldn't have paid to watch an ex student of his, even if she is 22. He must know how completely inappropriate that is and obviously doesn't give a shit.

However, I don't know what the terms and conditions are for people who have only fans accounts. Surely they aren't allowed to name people who subscribe to their accounts? And certainly not then go and report them to their employer.
This is not to say that I'm dismissing the concerns and worrying about a data protection breach rather than about the young woman herself, but she does need to consider the legal aspects of it too to avoid any potential problems.

I assume she can block him though and that should be the first thing she does.

I’m interested by the range of responses.

It doesn’t seem to me like there is anything that OP can do except suggest to her friend to report him to the school - if OP reports to the school, I don’t see what can be done? She’ll have no proof, it will essentially just be idle gossip.

OP’s friend shouldn’t have shared that X man has paid for her porn. If she’s uncomfortable it’s her choice to ignore him, block him, or report him.

Maybe the reputation of a teacher who pays his former pupils for sexual content should be ruined?

It's forever baffling to me how sacred a man's reputation is to some people, as opposed to the safety of girls and women - and I absolutely believe a teacher watching porn created by a young woman he taught only four years ago may well be a risk to the teenage girls in his classes now and in the future. I value them and their safety far more highly than his reputation - which wouldn't be at risk if he wasn’t subscribing to ex-pupils' OnlyFans.

It’s easy money for those that can do it.

Probably nothing else pays as well if one is unskilled.

Women an attractive young men know they are wank fodder.
At least online there is no physical contact.

It’s a bit weird but report him for what…watching a bit of what’s effectively porn? You can’t sack someone for that unless they’re doing it at work. On the other hand, you could ruin their reputation.

That these sites are legal is appalling, not because nudity or sex is taboo, but because it is just another way to try to purchase consent. The power imbalance is huge even without the former teacher dynamic in play.

that it is a former teacher watching makes no difference because everyone watching is a creep.

if you want to help your friend with this situation, help her find real employment. Help get her out of a situation where she is being exploited, even if she feels relatively protected by the faux anonymity and distance provided by the online experience.

Our science teacher married a pupil ( 17) he was. 30’s
It happens.

We were shocked though.

From the OP all we know is

They thought the teacher was a creep
She's posted pics / videos of herself online
He has subscribed

What we don't know is...
Is she using her real name?
Did he actively look her up?

Without more info we don't know that he has done anything wrong.

What we definitely know is she shared this confidential information with you.
