Don't be a Male Kindergärten Teacher in China... it sucks, apparently.

Damn, I thought I had it bad. Granted there's the whole "Is he a pedophile, or just gay" gauntlet I have to walk every day (I'm neither ladies, so stop being sexist and make out with me already), but at least I'm not being pushed out of a job. From accusatory stares, a socially inherent lack of respect and low wages to the prospect of never getting laid again, you're better off quitting or pulling a Columbine (at least they'll think you're a man after that, right?). Whatever.

Here's the link:

"According to statistics released by the Guangzhou education department, only 14 out of 28,422 kindergarten teachers in the city were men at the end of last year." To put that in perspective, that means .049% of kindergarten teachers in the city are men - or rather 1 male for every 2,032 female teachers. The national average for the U.S. is 2% for kindergarten, 24% for male teachers in general.



I give this guy like six months, tops.
