Ten years ago, school teachers in Taiwan made headlines for spanking students with wooden slabs and making them eat chalk. Today, cases of campus sexual harassment occupy much of the local news here. Following our report last week about Teacher Chen, a high school math teacher who tried to get his students excited about trigonometry and calculus by talking to them about circumcision, today, we have Teacher Kuo, a high school chemistry teacher who gave boys extra credits for making dirty jokes.
He was infamous for staring at girls’ breasts, and he had allegedly also approached female students, telling them, “I had a wet dream about you.” Kuo has since been fired from the school.
Chinese lesson of the day: when a guy has a wet dream, he has “drawn a map” (hua-di-tu).
