social conditioning, teacher student relations as portrayed on television today, but a few short years ago, dawson's creek with many a high school boy's fantasy, beds his english teacher, weird? not that bad, unbelievable, yes, but still, younger guy, older girl, sounds fine, but then today, boston public, female student tricks teacher into dangerous liasons, and i am disgusted, leaves a bad taste in my mouth, yuck. but there is a difference, besides the genders of the two couples. on boston public, she (student) out and out lied to the teacher. on dawson's creek there was nothing but honesty involved. there was no trickery, no lying, no falsities. that was honest pedophilia. boston public, that wasn't. pranksters in love, i'll pass.
