Why? It's the most woman-dominated field in the world, it must be utter torture to do it every day.
I can agree that female preschool teachers can be fkn annoying and the fact that every document I have to sign and which treats me like a woman is beyond degrading (in polish almost every verb is gendered; most documents created for preschool teachers simply don't have space for male verbs or pronouns) but thanks to me some kids have a fatherly figure for the first time in their young lives. I might suffer from time to time, but the knowledge that those kids will have a better future makes it all worthwhile in the end.
Edit: Thank you guys for all your kind comments. It's rare for me to hear a compliment and your comments gave me energy to keep going.
I couldn't do it, but good for you man. I'm impressed with anyone who can deal with all the bullshit that comes along with being a male teacher in order to make a positive impact on young kids.
If all teachers were men the world would be in a much, much better place. That's not to say there aren't many great female teachers, but for every one of them there's probably 50 who are total psychos.
