Legal adult suspended from school for having legal sex

[Quantum Windbag]

In front of a camera.

So, an 18 year old high school student was suspended from school after it became known he was making gay pr0n on the side. His mother supports his career choices because… Florida. The school says that learning was disrupted when other students learned about sidline; which happens to be true. Dan Savage and the Safe School Czar could not be reached for comment.
I am generally with the school on this one. Making pr0n is a sleazy, and often dangerous business. Having one kid doing normalizes it, and makes it more acceptable for other kids to get into that lifestyle. Not to mention encouraging irresponsible sex generally, which is why STD rates are increasing.
High school kids making professional pr0n; mainly because skeezy older gay dudes are buying it. Thank you, forty years of progressive moral decline.

Apparently the suspension has been overturned, and he will return to classes tomorrow.

Which makes it all magically like it never happened.

Not.

Well, it is a little harder to get outraged about something that's already been resolved.

I think he should be kicked out of school. For one thing, it 'normalizes' this activity and sets up a example for other kids. Another consideration is that some of the other kids will think this is something they'd like to participate in, kids being rebellious and liking to challenge the status quo. They are too young to realize how such an activity might harm them emotionally or negatively affect their future. In the old days, pregnant students were banned from school, but I don't agree with that. For one thing, only the girl was banned, not the father, so it was completely unfair. Also, a romantic and sexual relationship between two students that results in pregnancy is something very, very different than porn films being done by one of the school's students.

Doing porn films, as high school student? This is very dangerous activity, dangerous to you mentally and dangerous physically. It lowers the bar way too low as far as reasonable behavior for anyone who is not an adult, and putting this kid in the same environment as other kids where he might influence them? It is not an intelligent thing to do. The kid making the porn videos may be an adult, but the vast majority of the kids he would be interacting with at school are not.

Maybe you should learn the difference between contempt and outrage. If I was the conservative hack I would be outraged that a kid is making gay porn, not heaping scorn on a system that reacts to bad publicity by doing the right thing instead of just doing it right in the first place.

I agree, making porn is not normal. It is, however, none of your fucking business. If you don't like his job, don't watch his moves.

They could put them next to the posters about sex.

Excuse me? I didn't say anything about his 'job,' and I didn't say anything about watching or not watching 'his' movies. Nothing. The question I addressed was the type of influence he would have with the rest of the students at the school, and I addressed whether making pornography was reasonable behavior for someone who is not yet an adult. Where do you get off attacking me that way? I did not make it my 'business' in any way, and I find your post extremely irrational and offensive. Are you just too dense to understand the very simple points I made?

Unless he is recruiting underage people into porn, or passing out copies of his movies to minors, you really don't have a point.

In high schools, kids have a lot of interaction with each other during lunch time, sports events, dances, parties, etc. They also know everything that goes on in the school, usually before the teachers or administrators do. I'm sure every kid in that school knows this guy makes porn and that all the kids are talking about it. He doesn't need to directly make an effort to recruit students; there will me those who are drawn to it. He doesn't need to 'pass out' videos; there will be kids begging to see them. This particular activity that he is doing may not affect all of the other kids in the school, other than its acceptance by the administration will very obviously 'normalize' it; however, it will affect a substantial number of them, and their friends at other schools. It isn't something that isn't going to have impact. If you don't know that much abut the high school environment, I do. I see absolutely no reason for you to be so rude and nasty to me. My points are not worth that kind of venom.

I don't know if there is much of a difference between "contempt" and "outrage", particularly when it's posted on the internet.

I'm fairly sure that you and I agree on the particulars of this - that what the guy did in his free time, that broke no laws, was none of the school's fucking business, and they had no justification to suspend him.

But we "won" this one already.

It doesn't matter, though. The film in question wasn't made in school, and the young man who made the film is an adult with the right to engage in any legal activity (in this case economic activity) he chooses. Would you feel the same way if it were hetro porn? What about the teacher recently fired for a playboy spread? or the student from back in the day for posing for Playboy (or penthouse? hustler?) in her university sweater? Where do we draw the line regarding censorship?

 

[Esmeralda]

I never read anything about whether it was hetero or not. Didn't even consider it wasn't, so that was no issue to me, but it wouldn't be anyway. I am very protective of children. I suppose the school has to let him stay because of civil rights, but I think it is a shame. This is not a good thing for the kids. I don't think teachers should be doing Playboy spreads or being prostitutes in their free time, etc. There is a lack of sanity in throwing this kind of stuff at kids who are not even out of school and not out of childhood.

Are you guys parents? Would you be totally cool with your kids going to school with classmates who made porn videos and teachers who were prostitutes in their spare time (I bring that one up because it was one situation discussed on here or another board) or teachers who do Playboy layouts? I wouldn't. This kind of thing is around them all the time, outside of school. I don't think we should be throwing it in their faces in school too.

He is a legal adult, and he made a legal film. Big deal.

Okay, first off, there is a difference between posing for an adult magazine (legal activity) and being a prostitute (illegal activity, and dangerous because of the underground nature of it). I'm sure you don't intend to be disingenuous, but correlating the two is very misleading.

I am a parent, and my kids are grown. It went without saying that porn was off limits, but we didn't have anything but basic cable (if / when that) anyway. I didn't censor them, but we did discuss things on television when the opportunity arose (I hated talk shows, in particular), and I explained gender politics and power to them, listened to what they thought about things to give them a chance to articulate and sort through their thoughts about all sorts of things. They're both good solid adults who know how, rather than what to think, have never been arrested, gotten anyone pregnant, or got pregnant before at least an undergraduate degree was achieved. My daughter is the proud mother of twin boys.

It would never occur to me to raise a stink about some other student (or teacher) in their school regarding personal choices in their off hours unless it directly involved (as in asking them to take part) my children. If the activity in question is not taking place IN school, it would not BE "in their faces."
