Without going through your post point by point ( I apologize if you think this distorts your meaning), I would like to say just a couple of things. On sex -- the following concerns high school -- My son-in-law's school (in Queens) has a distinct majority of males on the faculty. My friends who teach in "international" schools overseas work in a 75 percent+ male environment and my son's school faculty is probably close to 90 percent male. Means nothing other than I know a LOT of male teachers. On money -- if a teacher wants to bolt out the door with the kids when the bell rings, his reward will be merely adequate. If he/she wants to work till five (like most people) he can coach, direct a variety of other student activities, take responsibility for various administrative chores at the school. He can teach a session of summer school. He can tutor. He can consult with industry. My point is -- if you are willing to do the time, you can make a damn good living as a teacher. ALL the teachers I know LOVE teaching and none are living anywhere near the poverty line. Far from it. M
