  1. Thankfully, it's getting exposed these days, as it's being taken more seriously.

  2.  @watsonspuzzle  Greater awareness of the harm this does leads to more reporting. It's no worse.

  3. Polygraphs are unreliable. Also, stop shouting.

  4.  @JohannaVanWinkle  More people are aware of how harmful this is. It's being taken more seriously, thus more prosecution and more reporting. If anything, that's a positive development.

  5. There's nothing about this that's particular to NYC. It has always happened around the world, and now there's more understanding of the harm it does.

  6. Teachers have done this around the world throughout history. Thankfully, there's more understanding of how harmful it is.

  7. The hosts of this video explain it.

  8. Elsewhere. Did you not pay attention to the video? This does a lot of psychological damage.

  9. It gets clicks. There's nothing new here.

  10. Look at the data. Schools are some of the safest places for kids to be.
    2
  11.  @eyestoseeearstohear9030  Yes, they are. See the data. It's not even close. Lurid reporting always distorts people's assessment of actual risk.
    2
  12. They're pervs, that's all.
    2
  13. Do the math. NYC has a ton of teachers, and these cases are spread out over several years.
    2
  14. Partly, but also, it's being taken more seriously these days.
    2
  15. Homes are more dangerous than schools are. This behavior is not new. There's more awareness today over how harmful it is, and so now there's more exposure and less "sweeping under the rug." That's a positive development.
    2
  16. There's no connection; there's nothing partisan about this sort of thing.
    2
  17. They do talk about that in this very video.
    2
  18. There's nothing funny here.
    2
  19. That has nothing to do with it. Conservative religious institutions (for example) are notorious for this.
    2
  20. That's not funny.
    2
  21. It's nothing new. More people know how harmful this is, and thus it's swept under the rug less often. That's a positive development.
    2
  22. That, and it's being taken more seriously these days.
    2
  23. There's no connection. See how often this comes up in, for example, conservative religious circles.
    2
  24. Homes are more dangerous than schools are.
    2
  25. That has nothing to do with it. They're just pervs. Also, it's not funny.
    2
  26. It's nothing new, but it's taken more seriously now.
    2
  27. People are taking this behavior more seriously now. That's a positive development.
    2
  28. The odds were definitely in your favor, whether or not you were emancipated. NYC has a vast number of teachers, and these cases are spread over several years. It's terrible behavior, but yes, nearly all teachers would never do this.
    2
  29. There's nothing funny about this.

  30. This is nothing new. It's just taken more seriously now, and that's a positive development.

  31. That's not funny.

  33. More people are taking this sort of thing seriously. There's less "sweeping under the rug," and thus more reporting.

  34. If anything, it's great to see that more people are taking this behavior more seriously. It's swept under the rug less often. That's a positive development.

  35. One hundred out of a huge district, spread out over several years. It's ghastly, but not as bad as it seems.
    1
  36.  @melca3162  They're pervs. They don't want men, they want boys. It has nothing to do with "pulling."
    1
  37. Why are they exempt?
    1
  38. Yes, inasmuch as this sort of thing is taken more seriously and swept under the rug, less often.
    1
  39.  @Zuna492  No one wants to be a victim. What are you trying to say?
    1
  40. In fact, it's great to see people take this behavior more seriously, hence the increased prosecutions and increased reporting.

  41. Homes are more dangerous than schools.

  42. NYC has a huge number of teachers, and this is spread over a number of years.

  43. A city with a huge number of teachers, and this is spread over several years. Also, it's being exposed and taken more seriously these days, and that's a great development.

  44. There's no connection.

  45. There is nothing partisan about this sort of thing.

  46. NYC has a huge number of teachers, and these allegations are spread over a number of years. It's terrible, but not as bad as the headline makes it seem.

  47. There's no connection.

  48. Do the math- there are a huge number of teachers in NYC, and these incidents are spread over a number of years.

  49.  @kmthomas71  I don't know what that means.

  50. That's silly.

  51. Homes are more dangerous than schools are.

  52. It's not funny. Stop shouting.

  53. There's no conspiracy, just pervs, as always.
    1
  54. They aren't; look at how many NYC teachers there are, and do the math.
    1
  55. That is beside the point.
    1
  56. There's no connection. Consider, for just one example, how often this comes up in conservative religious circles.
    1
  57. If anything, it's a demonstration of improvement to see that this behavior is taken more seriously now, and swept under the rug less often.
    1
  58. Not funny.
    1
  59. It is. Schools, in fact, are much safer than homes!
    1
  60.  @spacemanspliff7983  It is, in fact. The vast majority of this sort of behavior happens in homes, behind closed doors. This is a set of 100 cases out of a vast number of teachers, spread across several years.
    1
  61.  @malekkushimuzik3580  Think about what it would entail to never do that.
    1
  62. This behavior is being taken more seriously now. It's swept under the rug less often. That's a very positive development.

  63.  @DawsonFamily-g6k  Knock it off. Religious institutions are notorious for this sort of thing.
    1
  64.  @JesseThompson-ef2oc  Silly.
    1
  65. That's a canard.
    1
  66. This very video explains the damage this causes.
    1
  67. Do the math. There are a lot of teachers in NYC. I don't think that this is out of proportion compared to anywhere else.
    1
  68. *their
    1
  69. Sure, but not because of terrible behavior getting exposed.
    1
  70. Did you pay attention to the video? This is very harmful.
    1
  71. Why would they be exempt?
    1
  72. There's more awareness of how harmful this is, and hence more exposure.
    1
  73. Homes are more dangerous than schools.
    1
  74. I'm not sure what gives you that idea, but in any case, look how often this comes up in conservative religious circles!
    1
  75. This very video has the presenters explaining how terrible it is, the effects it has on boys.
    1
  76. Homes are more dangerous than schools.
    1
  77. In this very video they explain how damaging this is.
    1
  78. You didn't pay attention to the video. This behavior causes a lot of harm, no matter who's involved.

  79. There's no connection. Conservative religious institutions (for example) are notorious for this sort of thing.

  80.  @atheos5748  You're the one making an assertion and implying an association, albeit coyly.
    1
  81. Thankfully, that's 100 out of a huge district, spread out over several years.
    1
  82. NYC was in much worse shape in the past few generations. It's mostly a great place these days. This sort of behavior is nothing new around the country and around the world. It's taken more seriously now, which is why we're hearing much more about it.
    1
  83. Anymore? This is nothing new. Thankfully, more people are taking it more seriously, hence increased exposure.
    1
  84. True, extending over a period of several years, out of a very large number of teachers (it's NYC).
    1
  85. That's irrelevant.
    1
  86. Homes are more dangerous than schools are.
    1
  87. That's silly. There's nothing new about this. People take it more seriously now, hence more is done about it, and more reporting.
    1
  88.  @Battle4Life222  The presence of trash in the city has nothing to do with this.
    1
  89. This behavior is being taken more seriously, thus we're hearing much more about it.
    1
  90. Out of context.
    1
  91. They're not supposed to, but people are doing it anyway.
    1
  92. They're just pervs. Very young adults do this as well. Minors do it to one another.
