Yeah my English teacher started dating a student a year and a half after he graduated.. it happens everywhere

On the Madison Beer subject… in a podcast I listened to recently (I wish I could remember which!) the women discussed how pop stars fit into 2 categories: ‘You’re going to steal my man’ (like Madison Beer) or ‘you’re going to be my best friend’ (like Taylor Swift) I guess it’s male gaze vs female gaze but I think it really rings true. It’s not necessarily about attractiveness it’s more the presentation of it. This would actually be a fun topic to explore!

I think Megan Fox comes across the way Em Rata does - they’re hot and have been objectified, and try too hard to be ‘intellectuals’ - in my opinion it feels like overcompensating, I just don’t feel it’s authentic. Also it’s being speculated that Megan Fox’s secret surgery was an eyebrow hair transplant, see Lorry Hill and Dr Gary Linkov’s analyses. Also the ‘Hollywood badge of honour’ thing - notice how she said when she ‘needs’ a facelift… lord have mercy.

Aw that is so tough and you will probably have to jump through hoops to prove that you're trustworthy with some parents but they will see eventually so I hope you persevere because we need good passionate teachers and good male role models and you sound like one.

Erin

I think it's just as creepy and even adds an extra layer of calculation because they've had time to think about it and just confirms that they knew it was not OK

Bertille Binois

I think Madison Beer’s discomfort comes from the fact that some leaked a nudes when she was underage that’s traumatic

Corinne Huntley

Even if these men did wait until ex celebrity woman turned 18, it’s still fucking creepy that you were waiting on someone to turn 18

Shannon Western

😭 crying at the chats about photos too real

ali

at my high school the swim coach got a boner during swim practice and had to write a letter to all the parents but was still allowed to coach because he had coached one girl to the olympics way back when !!!

Annie

HAHAHAHHAAH THE MIRROR TO PHOTO PROCESS IM CRYING ITS SOOOOO REAL

Giuliette

The revert filter on tiktok traumatised me ! Loved this episode ! Hope you’re having fun in LA 🫶

It also makes me so mad that men like Brian Peck used his sexuality as a shield and cry 'homophobia' when he abused children or Dan Schneider saw himself as one of the kids, as if anything including somebody's sexuality or personality could ever justify the abuse and exploitation they committed. Men like Brian Peck and Dan Schneider and the awful teachers people have had get extrapolated to represent every man in the proximity of children, which, while not entirely unwarranted, is also disheartening. As a queer guy at university studying to be a teacher with all this 'don't say gay' culture war BS bubbling up again, I've considered if it's even worth becoming a teacher when the cultural perception of my identity and my career path is so negative that I even know women who have lost teaching jobs just for being LGBT+. idk sorry for such a long comment on like half of the pod, but it all makes me so upset as somebody from a family of educators that people even consider harming children, I hope that I can even make up for and prevent 1% of the harm done

Do you actually believe Megan Fox reads textbooks at bedtime?

Bridget Bauer

And yes that was me who swipes left on teachers lol

CMann

I would rather be called right wing/qanon for calling out pedos than be associated with people who stick their heads in the sand or are in denial that these horrific things are happening... It's absolutely wild how dismissive some people can be...

Bridget Bauer

Fluentlyknowsall! I love it!!!

Meg

Third mystery procedure is 1000% a vaginoplasty. Just wanting to keep it private but also not something public would know. Also why she said “you don't need it I don't think” I think this would go hand in hand with the post birth boob job and her mentioning how she feels more confident sexually

Elizabeth Nunez

Shannon, I wanna urge you to watch Drake Bell’s sentencing hearing on youtube and read the court documents. He never touched the girl, and she admitted to lying about her age. When he found out her age, he blocked her, and that’s when she started to harass him and went to the police. He is not a registered sex offender because he committed no sexual offense, he committed and plead guilty to endangering a minor. As the adult and the celebrity i believe it was his responsibility to ensure he was talking to an adult, but this was also YEARS before James Charles and Me Too and everything that caused a lot of us to think harder about certain dynamics. I truly don’t think Drake has an interest in minors, and I respect how willing he was to take the consequences for the child endangerment charge

Annie

For undergrad I went to *the* liberal arts school in our state, like it’s so much so that the crazy ass conservative governor has since all but torn down the buildings (lil hint- its actually about an hour away from one of the places Shannon has mentioned living on here). I learned so much there about lgbtq communities and never ever did anyone even remotely suggest “minor attracted persons” are a part of that and honestly fuck anyone who does! Conflating personal identity and consensual adult relationships with literal predators is so beyond fucked and a major disservice to actual queer issues. And like you guys said they probably don’t choose that, and in general our criminal justice system needs more rehabilitative interventions for people but fuuuuuuuck trying to call them lgbtq and justify their victimizing children

RJ

Also big agree on the it’s insane to date younger. Like I’m 26 and the idea of dating anyone younger than me is gross to me but when I see teens now I sometimes think they’re like 10. Idk if you get gens aged faster or there’s a delusion when you are a teen that you look old but it’s weird!! I have no idea how old people are anymore lol

RJ

I have only really seen the comments about people wanting to use the term MAPS by pedos themselves and mainly in online places and people rightfully are like lol fuck no. I’ve also seen people commenting shit like “they can’t help it it’s a disorder!” Like even if that was true that doesn’t make it okay 🥴 just like how people can have a diagnosis of psychopathy it’s mostly if they are acting on those things that make it an issue 🫠 anyway boo tomato tomato to people trying to act like it’s acceptable or part of lgbtqia+ it’s just not. Being a predator isn’t an orientation 😵‍💫

Tarlina May

The Business Casual dress style is still everything!!! Hahahaha yesss!!!

Jennifer Lake

When I was in high school one of my teachers married a former student. She was over 18 but still weird that he taught her as a teenager.

Jennifer Lake

Madison beer is so pretty it's like uncanny valley-ish. Shannon you look like you could pull off the coastal grandma look 😂

Mary

Y’all are so spot on about Madison Beer’s instagram face…I’m thinking maybe since she looks so instagram influencer that people just look at her and think “Oh, she’s just an instagram influencer trying to pursue music. Her music probably isn’t that good” ?? Idk, when I look at her, I don’t think singer/musician so I’ve never put in the effort to listen to her music. I guess I’ll have to check it out to understand her better…I do like her song Make You Mine, it’s really a bop!

xknowsall

When I say that book changed my brain chemistry

Karen Adame

Madison Beer is so instagram face that she looks AI generated lol

Averie

Lumping pedophiles in as “LGBTQ” is conservative agenda coded 🫣

Rose Rainbow

When Christy mentioned my dark Vanessa 🥲. I wish I could unread that book lmao

Angelyca Violet

Great episode! Hope you two have/had a good time in LA. Take care ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

My elementary school gym teacher was a pedo. He sexually assaulted his GF’s daughter who was 14 years old. A letter was sent out to all the families of students when he was arrested with really graphic details. Pervs are out there and it’s scary. I don’t have kids yet but my partner and I always talk about how we feel like we won’t be able to trust anyone with our future kids.
