Somewhere there's a bunch of primary teachers booking acts with names like flowjob with a straight face and not a thought as to whether it might be wise to check out DBSs and social media? And then are surprised when parents kick off?

Really?!

Like wtaf!?

This isn't even due diligence. This is like having a dick slapping in your face and saying "oh but I didn't notice it" in a way which we are supposed to consider sincere.

They should be fucking sacked.

Oh gosh.

Just to add to my previous comment -

Frankly, no man should be a nursery worker, imo. It introduces an unnecessarily heightened degree of risk and has no net benefit. Better to tighten safeguarding, improve training, raise pay, and stick with the comparatively much lower risk that women present.

But this man may as well have been a walking red flag. Even if a nursery was forced to hire men, why on earth would they choose that one?!

I don’t think men or women should be automatically banned from certain professions. But whoever did their due diligence didn’t try very hard.

It looks to me like there are too many people who are complicit, not negligent.

Having read up on the stats around male abuse in early childhood education, I think that raising the risk of sexual abuse by such a massive degree (completely unnecessarily), by allowing men to work in nurseries/day cares, is a failure of safeguarding. It's deliberately exposing young children to elevated rates of sexual abuse.

I care more about children being protected from sexual violence than I do about men's feelings, so when the two come into such stark conflict, I fall on the side of protecting children.

Childcare sexual abuse is mostly committed by men. Failing to recognise that puts children at risk

We must recognise that while men make up only a small proportion of childcare workers, they are responsible for the majority of child sexual abuse cases within them.

Every time I say I think male nursery workers should banned someone comes along to tell me how wrong I am - but I stand by this 100%.
I would never send my preschool age child to a setting with a male worker.

MrsOvertonsWindow · 16/01/2026 14:27

He's a nursery teacher! Did nobody raise any concerns about his drag queen "activities" as Miss Kitty Swallows"??? 😡

I hope there's a serious investigation into his behaviour in that school given all this. Although having seen the cover ups with the paedophiles in LGBT Scotland, Mermaids, Surrey Pride etc I'm not sure that child safety is ever prioritised over the demands of these disgusting men.

I get that some people are going to have a different view to me. But I don’t think anyone should be excluded from working with children solely on the grounds of their sex.

I have a son who works with young children every day and he’s not an abuser.

I understand you have a personal 'dog in the fight' then, and a different perspective, but I just can't get past being willing to deliberately markedly raise the rates of sexual violence that children and babies experience in nurseries.

That’s quite some reach.

you’ll note I didn’t say what his specific job was, deliberately.

Apologies. I thought that as you mentioned his work, it would be within a nursery or childcare centre. I'm not sure how it's relevant, otherwise.

Regardless, being in favour of men working in nurseries is statistically and factually being in favour of markedly heightened rates of sexual violence, because the former leads to the latter.

Do you dispute the available statistics?

🤮 Vile, evil man ! No shock there!

Not going to argue with you - we aren’t going to see eye to eye and you’re not going to change my mind, nor I yours so it’s a waste of both our time.

edit to add @OtterlyAstounding because my quote didn’t work.

Fair enough! Thanks for the exchange 🙂

What did Mhairi Black do, or say?

Championed male adult entertainers in schools and promoted the crap "here is the face of LGBT"

From memory she was involved bring a male drag queen who also had a "child friendly" persona into a Primary(?) School as part of a pro-LGBT event.

The parents had not been informed of the event nor had permissions been given.

And the male was given pictures of children which were uploaded onto his business website alongside his own sexual images in clear breach of the schools data protection obligation and safeguarding as he was in some of the pictures so could not have taken them.

Parents and other objectors were blamed for objecting images of children on the business page and basically labled as transphobic for pointing out the safeguarding problem with the school which allowed him to obtain the childrens images.

If I remember correctly the school did not try and/or were not able to have the images removed.

Beeinalily · 16/01/2026 15:32

God almighty, wouldn't you think the drag queen names would be warning enough?

moto748e · 16/01/2026 15:33

I think male nursery workers is a tricky one. It's not a hill I'd die on either way, but it does lead to some complications. Would banning all men from nursery jobs make kids a bit safer? Almost certainly, yes, but rather in the same way that we could reduce VAWG markedly by introducing curfews. Should we bring up kids to see adult males as an ever-increasing threat? What about male primary-school teachers? Politically, I can't see any govt wanting to pilot such a contentious piece of legislation through the House.

I linked an article to 'Flo Job" upthread. It was him that Black took into a school.

The arguments in favour are more about the benefit to children of positive male role models, imo.

Although sadly after the last horrific abuse case, I do think the arguments for ban on males caring for pre-verbal children should be considered.
