        no. in europe still many parents think male kindergarten teachers and workers might be pedos because they can’t grasp another reason for them to do this job in the first place.

        adit: “kindergarten teachers” and “school teachers” have different roles and training, you anglos use other names for them, so i might botched the translation. in our kindergarten and daycare they’re no teachers working, only in schools.
