A second teacher at a high school in Missouri was put on leave after administrators discovered her OnlyFans side hustle.

Megan Gaither, 31, said during an interview with the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that she was placed on leave from her English teaching and varsity cheerleading coach position on Oct. 27 after district officials found out about her account on the OnlyFans platform.

    Not sure how this is relevant.

    The job qualifications and contracts are different for police officers than teachers.

      It’s entirely relevant to your argument. Both are commonly expected to be role models. This expectation is enforced in only one case.

        The job qualifications and contracts are different for police officers than teachers.

        If officers agreed to terms that prevented them from having an OnlyFans, then you would have a point.

        It’s not a part of their contract, so why would they be punished for it?

        It is a part of a public school teacher’s contract, so they aren’t allowed to do it.

        If they don’t like it, they can do something else.
