- The rise of sexual moaning in schools - a thread 🧵
- *Content warning* Men who choke female partners during sex have little understanding of risks, study finds 🧵
- Replying to @CollectiveShoutGirls are increasingly reporting being subjected to sexual moaning by male classmates. But sexual moaning by boys in class doesn’t just impact female students – it creates a hostile and unsafe environment for female teachers, too.
- Replying to @CollectiveShoutOne teacher expressed, "From a teacher’s perspective, it is also done to intimidate and make female staff uncomfortable as well. "It is horrendous to experience as a grown woman, I can only imagine the awfulness my female students would experience as well.”
- Replying to @CollectiveShoutIn addition to sexual moaning, a number of female teachers described regular sexual harassment including: ✅ wolf whistling ✅ inappropriate sexual comments ✅ boys playing porn on their devices ✅ boys masturbating in class ✅ being propositioned by male students.
- Replying to @CollectiveShout.@MelTankardReist: “I have had female teachers approach me in tears, describing what it feels like to be greeted by these orgasm noises every time they enter the classroom. They feel helpless, disempowered to stop it.”

- Replying to @CollectiveShout“When it is reported, oftentimes the male lead teacher will make the comment, 'I never have this problem with this student’. They believe that female teachers are incompetent or we make this stuff up.”
- Replying to @CollectiveShoutParents and female teachers reported the sexual moaning was coming from younger and younger boys. “It’s not just high school, I've heard the noises from boys in year 4,” said one.
- Replying to @CollectiveShout“Having been in this industry for 20+ yrs, I can honestly say that the way male educators and school leaders respond to these behaviours can often be a big part of the problem.”
