- I know I push the boundaries on certain conversations and I’m worried that it’s making schools stay away from me, even though they know it’s strictly storytelling when I visit them.
I’m caught in the middle here.

"I message 100 teachers a month."
This is good; this is grit; this is HOW IT IS DONE.
I was about to give you the COFFEE IS FOR CLOSERS speech.
But it sounds like you're on the right track.
But again, you're doing this in the UK. (I grew up in Londond 80-83)
It never hurts to "handle things the British way."
By that I mean, QUIET DESPERATION and CLASSICAL POETRY.
It's how the Brits have traditionally displaced their discomfort with the realer, uglier emotions. The personal may be what puts them off.
I saw that recent podcast involving porn and don't see a reason why that should cause schools to cancel. But everyone doesnt think the way I do.
With that said, my favorite priest in Catholic school (1st through 8th grade), the one who taught my classmates and I to listen with our hearts rather than our ears (which I still see as valuable advice decades later) was prosecuted a decade or two later for being a paedophile. He was found guilty and sentences to prison.
Granted, I'm a female and his victims were male. I didn't have a clue and found it difficult to believe, even after he was found guilty.
But I do believe that jurors take their responsibility seriously so I eventually made peace with the fact that my favorite priest likely committed a heinous act multiple times with multiple victims.
I'm also confident that the school had no idea what was going on. I was a child that questioned everything we were taught to the point that I was asked to stay after class, not because I was in trouble, but because I was never satisfied with the nuns' answers and they were afraid I would sway the rest of the class. I went so far as to meet with the Monsignor (in charge of the parish and school) as a 10-year-old wanting to know what I was confirming in our Holy Confirmation Ceremony, as well as to get the answers that my nuns and teachers couldn't satisfy.
I was a child but looking back on my experiences with them, especially with the Monsignor, I can't believe they knew what what that priest was doing. I could have been a problem child in their eyes but I believe they genuinely cared about all the children in that school.
So, based on my life experience, my mind goes to school liability being the issue. The school I went to still exists but they faced serious backlash when that priest was found guilty.
I can't help but think that some of these schools are concerned about liability. Even if they check teachers' backgrounds, if there is no record or evidence of misconduct, especially at a time when teachers are in greater demand (assuming it's still true that young adults are choosing to pursue more monetarily lucrative careers), schools may be unknowingly hiring paedophiles as teachers.
Again, I'm not well-versed on the topic but I struggle with thinking that your recent podcast hurt your mission. At the same time, as a US citizen with a history in global manufacturing administration, I have heard that Brits aren't comfortable discussing emotionally difficult topics, as @mrminer071166 said.
I wish i had a clear cut answer for you. Hopefully, your perusing these multiple comments will make you more comfortable with the decision you face.
I trust that, whatever you decide, it will be the right one. You've come this far and it does seem that the timing is right -- people are taking stock of what multiple societies' issues are -- and we seem to have a lot in common.
If only our pets could be teachers -- they intrinsically seem to understand the very concepts that humans struggle with. Here's an idea: Do you have a dog or cat you can ask?!
Good luck❤
Your message isn't (or shouldn't be) radical. It's essentially that prevention is better than cure and that a rational, scientific approach to paedophilia will be more beneficial than hysterical bogeyman myths. Please don't stray from that message.
Welcome to the reality of cancel culture. I found it very easy to book gigs when I was touring with Homer and Vergil. The ultra-violence went down a treat.
Then, after I came out as a boy-lover, NOTHING, these last fifteen years.
Even though I'm laying out a complete conservative paradigm, sandwiching the male role-modeling moment in between the mother-son moment and the dawn of heterosexuality.
Likewise, no one wants to talk about Plato's Phaedros either, even though the Phaedros holds up celibate male role-modeling as good, and gives a NICE SOLID THRASHING to paederastic lust, as something bad.
So yeah, the people who address this subject frankly are cancelled and vilified; the people making money off of trash are good to go. ;(
Did you come out to schools or just to family?
@@AM_o2000 Everybody. I work in the field of performing classical poetry, which is the one field where it's more natural to be a boy-lover, than to not be one.
@@mrminer071166 Wow. That's bold. Other than the professional ramifications, how has it affected your life? Todd Nickerson was outed/doxxed. Gary Gibson is the only person I know of who has come out publicly, and he was thrown out of his church despite being a non-offender (and despite them welcoming in and extending Christian forgiveness to convicted sex offenders who had served their sentence). He also got kicked off his course at university. Generally speaking, the consequences of coming out as a non-offender are somewhere between bad and dire.
