To be honest, too many people complain about the stereotypical scumbag heavy drinking, faux rebelliously weed smoking, womanising FTs. The holier than thou types are arguably worse in my opinion, being in China seems to give them a false sense of authority, a moral high ground. The problem could be that China seems to attract failures of a relatively middle class variety, who don’t seem to know that in the real world, their Western values aren’t as universally accepted as they might think.

Don’t forget the ‘only here for one year to get the China stamp’ crew either. Then, you’ve got those who unconditionally believe everything in China to be perfect and great. Very few ever seem to develop any kind of understanding it seems.

this topic could be kept going over, but the old maxim, don't leave any turds in your own swimming pool, or don't crap in your own backyard comes to mind. Plenty of nice girls outside of campus or school.

I’ve actually refused advances from students that are older than me, because I don’t want such conflicts of interest.

I don't have any problems about rejecting the advances from students older than myself because they're normally toothless with walking sticks.

The post subject lines are becoming quite nauseating, like- Paedophiles, or breach of trust, and so on. When we are arguing the toss about whether or not one should be bedding ones students, we assume we are talking about 22 year old university students (or even 20) We are talking about grown up women are we not? Now, for and against arguments concerning dating university students are perfectly acceptable, but some warped minds wish to twist things, for reasons best known to themselves(not talking about you personally) How on earth did paedophilia come into it? Whose fault was that? Even if you argue that 22 year olds are not grown up, because they are Chinese or some such reason, how the dickens can paedophilia have any place in the argument, or the subject line?

The age of consent in China is 14, so people sleeping with 15 year old could arguably (arguably being the important word) be said not to be paedophillia. Although personally I would say that such young women, even the older looking ones, would not to be to my taste as a pair of slightly large breasts a true woman does not make. I could even consider the same logic applying to 18 to 20 year old ladies too, mental and emotional maturity is important. And let’s face it, if you’ve never bashed out to an 18 year old bird on a porno before, you are either boring or just lying. So is paedophillia, the real issue? I’m not sure.

The greater issue of concern should be abusing a position of trust, a doctor shouldn’t sleep with his patients, therefore a teacher probably shouldn’t sleep with his students right? I’ve actually refused advances from students that are older than me, because I don’t want such conflicts of interest. But saying no to certain bored housewives can be difficult. However I admit that, I’m not here to claim the prize for best morals, lol.

e had stated that he dated a student at the university where he was working but that student was not in any of his classes. Silverboy

Exactly, he did state exactly that he's dated a student where he worked. The fact that the student was not in the exact class he taught has what significance????????????? It doesn't sound like a moral thing, more one of not being found out, hahaha

Then please find that post where Silverboy actually said he was having sex with a student that he himself was teaching, please. I don't remember seeing that. He had stated that he dated a student at the university where he was working but that student was not in any of his classes. Silverboy has been saying as far back as 2007 that it is stupid to copulate with students that you teach yourself. Seems like you didn't read the earlier posts.

To me, some of the very accusers who decided to take up the witch hunt against mainly Silverboy and ended up including everyone including you and me who supported Silverboy's position that he never actually had sex with any of his own students are covering something up, mainly that they themselves were having sex with their own students!

When you try to discredit someone, by default the followers of the post will have their attention directed AWAY from your own past, personal actions. "londongirl", "clyde", and "woodbine willie" all found it okay to believe that their statements were the end of all authority on other people, but never actually came out with what they did. Although the "clyde" poster did mention about a couple of his former colleagues who attempted to engage in fornicating with Chinese girls as young as 15 he did not mention where this took place, neither did he show that he actually engaged in a conflict resolution that would have properly compensated the victims of this crime. In fact, he blatantly stated in one of his posts that these colleagues or pretend "teachers" were people whom he considered friends. This for me shows that "clyde" may very well have not only personally enabled this behavior, but actively condoned or worst of all participated in it, and was only using the supposed "outsider's" point of argument to slide the fact that he was having sex with his own students. Accusing others of doing the very sinful action that you engaged in yourself is a rather unoriginal way of doing a cover up. The month of June 2012 certainly will go down on this board's history as a time when a couple of very sinister characters came on here to flaunt their unapologetic standpoint on actions which can be considered heinous. It was too bad we lost a good poster in Cunning Linguist who decided this place had become too sinister and that he could no longer trust both sides, not that there were any to begin with. Bad, very bad people with an ulterior agenda came on here to try and create a conflict so that a bigger smoke screen for future attacks and making this an easier place for weasels to come back and abuse others were carried out.
