Evolution

I really don't like when the kids touch me, but some of them are just hypnotized. I strongly discourage it. I'll be working with a group at their desks and one of their pencils will drift over and touch my arm. I'll withdraw and the pencils reach out again. This happens all the time.

I can't help it if my arms are hairy like a monkey. My family genes made the leap from ape to man, but just didn't leap far enough. When I was a kid, the tops of my arms and palms were hairy, but the hair has circumnavigated the arms in adulthood. One girl in my class asks me during a lesson last week why I don't shave my arms. About five other kids chime in with their support of that concept. Abandoning the chess notation lesson for a moment, I explain that shaving my arms would take a long time, plus they really should be thinking about their math lessons. The one girl won't let it go.

"You'll get more dates with the girls if you're less hairy," she tells me. I decide not to tell her that my boyfriend prefers me as furry as possible, instead thanking her for the advice and that I'll look into it. Back to chess notation, at least for another fifteen minutes.

Here's an equation for ya: Furry = good. :)

And pitching her out the window would have violated school rules, I suppose?

I shave my arms, and I don't get shit for action with the lay-deez. Your little friend is all wrong.

It was all I could do to keep from rubbing my hands up and down your arms. So furry, so nice!

Boys make more passes at boys with hairy asses?

Just quote Palochi's little saying the next time. I bet they'd find that a memorable lesson.

So, shall I stop by and nibble your neck, stroking your arms? That might shut them up.

Jeez, this reminds me of last year's faculty meetings in which we'd discuss how in the hell to deal with kids with absolutely no "limits", zero idea of what's appropriate.

I had one overly-mature 7th grade girl (held back a year) who'd seize every opportunity to embrace and rub her breasts on me.
