Would you want your child to be taught by someone who looked like this?

This teacher would normally fall foul of our dress code (we've been told the expectation is to dress as if we were interviewing for our job...some colleagues may have suggested lying on a gurney but breathing enthusiastically).

I am going to be HORRIBLY cynical here, & say from the POV of a GC teacher you really do need Ms X here to go viral. Sunlight.

@Emotionalsupportviper the link you posted is good, though no filter can make Oger look female.

While it seems like something that could happen in Canada, if true I’d expect the Toronto Sun or Rebel News to cover it. Until I see that I’m not sure.

That is sick. I'd be homeschooling instead.

I wouldn't want to comment unless it was actually true. You would think surely it must be a hoax but who knows, eh? Sure it will be verified / discredited soon enough. Hope it's not true!

@ReunitedThorns

😂😂😂

Brings a new meaning to "most vulnerable and at risk".

I am just so disappointed at people calling this a hoax. Please accept this woman as living her truth, discovering that she was meant to be born with unnaturally gigantic breasts. This is core to her gender identity, why question it?

I'm very concerned that trans rights activists instantly think "hoax", transgender women come in all shapes and sizes and should never be judged, you should always take their word for it, even convicted liars.

As many have said "acceptance without exception". She is stunning and brave, particularly around those circular saws.

@ControversialOpening ah, but you’re in the UK I think? I’m in Canada, which is where this person is teaching (if true). Teachers here at state schools very often teach in sandals, shorts, tshirts, jeans, biking shorts. One teacher I worked with (inexplicably) wore the same bathing suit with a skirt overtop week in and week out. Some teachers dress in business casual, some male teachers wear suits. But their dress code tends to me much more lax (when it exists at all) than that of the kids.

That’s the question Maya asked, isn’t it really

Seriously tho, what could be done in a dress code that would be non-discriminatory? Something about no visible nipples would be fine, but how could you write a dress code that didn’t allow this but did allow a transwoman teacher to present as they wished (and in a normal way)?

I read the title and thought "why are people so arsey about appearances? What does it matter what they look like?" But yes, this is fucking ridiculous.

ControversialOpening

Nowhere in that dress code do I see anything about giant prosthetic tits. Maybe that's where they've gone wrong.

The Kenny Everett reference brings back memories. ‘All done in the best possible taste’.

😂😂😂

No, I would assume they were sexually deviant, is that really bad to say?

I know this is serious but I lost it with this!

Grim if true, Id be in there with a pin. But you know there's MNers on that Twitter thread when you see the phrase "fanny gallops" 😄

I wouldn’t mind, most kids would find that hilarious

Outside of fee paying schools there is very seldom a dress code for school staff.

Every school I have worked in has had a dress code for staff. i still have a few examples:
Male staff must wear a formal shirt and tie and smart trousers - smart jumpers optional. Suits/jackets are optional. Smart shoes should be worn. Staff who teach in the PE Department have a separate agreed uniform.
 Female staff must wear smart dresses or smart separates or smart trousers. Skirts and dresses should not be too short (just above knee length at the shortest). Smart shoes or smart boots should be worn.
 All staff must wear their name badges/ID
 Staff should ensure that their make-up, hairstyles and any visible piercings or tattoos are
suitable and appropriate for working in a setting with young people below the age of 18 years of age.

and

Appropriate dress for female staff:
 Dresses and skirts which are no shorter than three inches above the knee. Dress and skirts which are ankle length and tight enough to hinder walking are not acceptable attire. The slit of a dress or skirt must come no higher than three inches above the knee.
 Slacks and Capri pants may be worn in an appropriate manner. Capri pants must be below the knee. Physical education teachers may wear shorts. All other female staff will not wear shorts.
 No jeans or jean clothing of any color are acceptable.
 T-shirts are not allowed. Low cut blouses, see-through clothing, off the shoulder, halter style,
tank tops, or clothing which reveals the midriff are not allowed. Sleeveless clothing must cover
undergarments.
 Shoes and sandals without a back strap are unacceptable. Flip-flops are NOT allowed.
 Athletic shoes/sneakers are not allowed for nonphysical education teachers.
 Earrings on females are the ONLY visible piercing allowed.
 Hats are not to be worn inside.
 Tattoos that are considered offensive, racist, vulgar, show scenes of violence, drug-related,
contain strong sexual imagery, gang related or contain obscene phrases may not be visible.
Appropriate dress for male staff:
 Men must wear a dress shirt and tie.

These are normal state schools, not fee paying

These are pretty much my thoughts too

There is absolutely no way in a milion years that this is not a spoof. No teacher would be allowed to wear cycling shorts in a class...

someone needs to do a risk assessment for those massive things right next to that chop saw!! This has to be a joke surely 😂
