We need male teachers because the field is dominated by females (75%). If you Google statistics around this fact, you’ll see an outcry for positive male role models, the need for male influences in student’s lives, and the need to balance “gender inequality.”
But the dilemma comes from the role that male teachers fill. 1) male teachers are treated differently than female teachers in the class and by parents and staff. But, at the same time 2) male teachers are subject to higher scrutiny and extra-judicial circumstances than females.
So on the podcast today, I want to decide if these two claims are true.
