Default Teacher suspended for wearing bikini on Stern

"a woman named Marie Jarry who taught second grade at the Thalberg School in Connecticut who appeared on the Howard Stern Show as part of an "Ugliest Guys, Hottest Wife" contest. Apparently, appearing on the show in a bikini was too much for the townsfolk and her husband claims Marie was pressured to resign"

www.MyRecordJournal.com - Thalberg teacher resigns

That's just wrong.

What if she had been wearing the same bikini at a beach?

This shows the narrowmindedness a lot of Dutch people having visited the U.S. of A are complaining about... I have no opinion on that... But, reading this I shake my head in disbelieve...

I'd have to agree... as Nation in general, we've got a collective stick up our a$$ when it comes stuff like this. That's a pretty good comparison Hick. What if she was at the beach? How the fk is that any different?

Sounds to me like she resigned on her own terms..... to me it doesnt sound like she was very pressured to do it.

I agree. If she would have made them fire her, then she would have a case for wrongful termination. By voluntarily resigning, she has no argument to make.

I work in a Public School system and I can almost guarantee she was pressured to leave. Legally, I'm not sure they could fire her for that, but they probably wouldn't have renewed her contract and for the rest of the year, the cloud of the whole stupid thing would be hanging over her head and she probably didn't want anything to do with such a$$holes.

Dikkie, the only one narrow minded is Howard Stern. He is one of the filthiest human beings on the planet. I am sure even this school teacher felt defiled being in his presence.

We have freedom of speech in the USA that allows him to operate, but he was banned from decent radio and tv stations.

Thats what I was thinking....

I have seen many of my teachers drunk in Bars and what not. Does this mean they should be fired also??? I have seen some of my teachers in bikinis, should they be fired also? If it doesn't happen on school grounds, then why should it matter?

Anybody ever hear about the art teacher, Stephen Murmer, that got fired for painting with his butt (in his off time) and selling his artwork online? He was a teacher in my school district. The kids all loved him, but the administration freaked out and fired him over it and he took them to court. He did videos on Youtube and I think he was on an older episode of TechTV demonstrating his painting process with a thong and a disguise on. It eventually went to trial but he ended up settling this past March for $65k and moved on.

Then we wonder why Johnny can't read as a high school graduate. No wonder parents want to home school or send their kids to private religious schools.

... or just private schools in general, leaving the religious nonsense out of it. No point in screwing them up any further.

The religious schools do have a limited curriculum and teach some values. They don't have the course on cooking meth, and driving and shooting at the same time.

Any time it involves parents, somebody will say or do something reflective of the size of the stick currently lodged in their fundament, versus the stick that should be regularly lodged wherever most couples see fit. I bet most of the parents didn't care, or didn't even know, but there's always that one "concerned parent" that seeks to be offended whenever possible.

It reminds me of the old Far Side cartoon, with the caption "the committee to decide whether spawning should be taught in school". Dunno if anyone else remembers it, but it always cracked me up...if ya haven't seen it, the point of the visual joke was that some people are frankly just not fit to judge certain things.

In this case, it's the complete inability of any "concerned PTO member" to objectively consider anything pertaining exclusively to grown-ups...or in other words, stop viewing everything through your child's eyes, at this rate they're gonna be more grown-up than you someday, and if they're that young and watching/listening to Howard Stern, you're doing it wrong. Uber Parental Fail!

We really need to stop treating teachers like this. It's like Sharia law but without the durka wrap. They're expected to be the epitome of Victorian sensibilities, as opposed to human, and way too much pressure is exerted on them by people who have no business judging adult behavior.

Another great spoof on this kind of reaction is the Family Guy episode where Lois gets fired for teaching Sex Ed and they bring in the holy roller to talk about abstinence instead.

Dunno how many of you have or are dating a teacher or someone working towards an education degree, but I'm sure a few of you know exactly what I'm talking about, particularly if she's young and pretty and you're a good ol' boy who gets his paws slapped a lot because she's a teacher and can't be seen doing that (whatever it is) in public.

There is an awful lot of institutional pressure on female teachers to look, dress and act like dowdy schoolmarms rather than the beautiful girls many of them happen to be.

orly? I didn't realize public schools taught that either, but I guess in your deluded world they do, but then again, religion never has been one to promote free thinking, just what your gold inlaid comic book spews. Take your bullsh!t to your religious forums pinhead.
