I mean, while the dude definitely needs to pay better attention to compartmentalizing his job and private stuff, can we not move past the tired old idea that being a sexual entity is some kind of horrible thing?

Like, it's 2024, kinks are a well known thing, and it didn't involve anything that would hurt someone else (no cp, no rape, just someone shoving something in one of their holes).

IDGAF what the guy's job is, he's a human with human flaws. He fucked up using the same computer for home and work, oh well.

Or was there something intentional about it I'm not getting from the text? If not, is it really that big a deal that the dude has unusual porn tastes?

Yep - although he definitely should get in trouble for flirting with students.

Does the text suggest that idea? The issue is that the teacher was using a school computer to store and watch porn. In a class room. The unintended video playback is just one of many potential consequences.

and flirting with his students

Thank you for voicing the sensible, human and empathetic argument.

I would not fire the guy from his job, however, I would give him endless shit for using a work computer to watch porn. That's just dumb.

Maybe that's his other kink

And honestly he’s probably just not paid well enough to have two computers.

Computers are cheap. Even free if you keep an eye out. Old stuff gets thrown out all the time. Even the school probably upgrades now and then, though they might have a recycling contract.

I don't give a fuck about the guy's kinks and his side income from a sounding focused onlyfans, teachers need to make a living and they certainly won't be making it from teaching, but using the work computer for personal stuff should have gotten him immediately fired and banned from any job related to education or requiring the use of computers.

Anyone stupid and irresponsible enough to do that is clearly a danger to themselves and others.

Also I don’t think high school teachers should be allowed to flirt with students.
