'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

Friday 23 July 2010

A sex education teacher has said he is "not ashamed" of having juggled a job as a porn star alongside his teaching career.

Benedict Garett, 30, was suspended as Head of Personal, Social, Health and Economic Education at Beal High School in Essex when it emerged he had been pursuing his career as a porn star and stripper during the school holidays and weekends.

Speaking about working for the porn industry, Benedict told The Sun: "It is something I do in my personal life that doesn't go against anything I teach the kids.

"There are many more immoral ways to earn money than romping in front of a camera."

Benedict also admitted that he doesn't always practice what he preaches as a Sex Education teacher, revealing that he rarely uses protection when working.

He insists: 'I firmly believe the risk of catching anything from a fellow porn star is minute. The industry is strict about performers probiding sexual health certificates".

Benedict began stripping as a student to earn some extra cash. He then auditioned to be a porn star, enticed by being paid £300 a scene and getting to "romp with beautiful girls".

When he started teaching, he promised to put a stop to the stripping and porn but found himself reverting to his old ways in his spare time. He was sussed by his students via a website that promotes him as a stripper by the name of Johnny Anglais.

He realises he may never teach again, and hopes to become a sex and fitness expert.

Do you think porn star Benedict should be allowed to teach?

If he wasn't in a job that involved interaction with the public then no problem, otherwise it can reflect badly on the school. I know this as I also did porn etc as per my story if you look me up on here Allyson Capron aka Leah Caprice

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

i think it would be good for a porn star to be teaching sex ed as the kids would probably want to listen as he knows what hes talking about! porn stars always have safe sex and hed probably be able to talk openly and honestly without being embarassed! i was taught sex ed by my science teacher and it was crap because she was embarrassed made everyone else embarrassed! the only problem is that if the kids decide to look him uop which im sure they would, its not really professional and its slightly immoral to have seen your teacher having sex! porn isnt a crime!

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

Yes we get checked every 28 days and I am very very off about unsafe sex and lecture everyone. I have applied to be a volunteer at a local GUM clinic as I know about my STI's. I want to reach those who think pregnancy is all you can catch though xx

good for you para and i bet if you told people that you do porn they'd listen more because your not a prude who they think is looking down their nose at them! why are we so closed off about sex eberyone does it its not dirty the more we talk about it the more eductaed people will be and there might not be so many teen pregnancies and sti's! para how did you get into porn?

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

Haha we didn't mean show them porn, please re-read. What we meant is we know more about safe sex, STI's and how to out a condom on than your average Joe. Announcing they're a porn start however would defeat the object but hey maybe they'd be too busy masturbating over the teacher to have sex. Underage pregnancies and STI's are rife, as well as in the under 25 group.

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

Through a friend, was working full time and saw an ad for lap dancing and it went from there over the years lol. I would never show my bits for free in pulic, I am not promiscuous and I do not have unprotected sex until me AND my partner have a clear STI result. Please note a regular test does not pick up on warts or herpes, both can be silent too (symptomless).

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

im all for teaching kids about STI's. i have nothing against people who choose to work in the sex industry, but at the end of the day it is a career in which people are paid to have sex, as is prostitution. teachers are in a position of trust, and if pupils find out that their teachers are in the sex industry then they are more likely to think it is ok, and although i am not criticising people who choose to do it, no parent wants their child to aspire to be a porn star!

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

whilst i agree with your comment lily grace, we are only talking about sex education not a whole curriculum, i see it is as kind of like a workshop, when i was at school we used to have talks from all kinds of people like ex offenders and people who have had addictions as they know first hand what they are trying to teach, it doesnt mean that those kids then thought it was ok to do drugs. is your view the same for actors who sex in films? because essentially they are also being paid to have sex on camera.

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

pornography and sex scenes in films are not the same, the films have age ratings and if these are adhered to by parents then they will not be seen by underage children. pornography is a lot more explicit, which is why it is rated XXX
people who talk about their experience with drugs or crime to school kids are doing it to try and discourage the pupils from making the same mistakes as them, hoping that drawing from their own bad experiences will prevent who they talk to from making the same mistakes as them.
i wouldnt be happy with my child being taught by an ex drug addict or convict either. sorry but thats just the way i feel. and i dont think that would happen anyway as school staff are CRB checked and the slightest petty crime can prevent someone getting a job in a school.

Not all drug addicts have criminal records.

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

never said they did, however it is quite often obvious that someone has been addicted to drugs by the damage it has done to their teeth/skin/etc. at the end of the day i am a parent and i have the right to an opinion about who is put in a position of trust with my daughter.

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

It's not like they'd be on their own with your child. It's merely advice from those who actually have one iota of knowledge on a subject. Not what they've 'heard', they've BEEN there, done it, sold the t shirt for smack haha xx

We digress, this is about a supposed porn star/teacher. Just because he's done porn does that make him any less of a good teacher?

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

I think this is a complete sham though tbh, no male porn star gets £300 per scene (googled his other stories), I know cos I've done porn for years! Never seen or heard of him xx

Me too, hate to think how much money you could have earned but you'd rather give it away. Maybe you couldn't get paid for it?

You're the one who decided to state "and you get paid to be filmed having sex. i know which person id rather be!". I don't know if I can take you seriously with such a slender grasp on grammar.

"Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?" If you need to ask the question then you're too dumb to be a teacher, that's why!

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

And it takes an intelligent person to do a 9-5 does it? I have a University education and it took the intelligence to realise I would make more money using my body at this time in my life.

LOL at flyingvic, I'm not saying I agree with him - bit dumb to get caught!

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

Lol @ Lily-Grace. I thought you were saying the debate was over but you've gone and posted again. You couldn't have had such a clear-cut argument then, especially as Benedict Garrett was getting Jiggy AND teaching for a living, he was obviously clever enough to get his university degree. What a shame for you to post this as the subject of intelligence came up, makes you look twice as stupid.

Btw, don't presume you speak for everyone. Using terms such as "our children" means you assume that everyone has the same opinion as you. You can only represent yourself, which, if you mean to look like a narrow-minded, conservative, prude, whom it seems would assume anyone suffering with eczema and/or gum disease is a drug-addict, you've done a good job of. I for one am worried that you may be infecting your own child's mind with your small-minded views, you don't need a CRB check to be a parent though do you. If she's lucky then your daughter will be getting taught by a good teacher who, regardless of what they do in their spare time, will teach her to think for herself, treat people fairly and not to be prejudiced and all the while making the learning process fun and interesting. Maybe Benedict Garret was one of these teachers, we don't know as there is no mention of his teaching abilities in the story above. This should've been the most important question asked but it seems the trivial matter of what he does in his spare time (and it is trivial, make no mistake) is all that's been focused on.

what a load of s**t i never said anything about anyone with health problems! cant you read?!
no you dont need a CRB to be a parent, and if im honest the child protection in this country is appalling!

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

I think that person is referring to your post where you say you can tell a drug addict by their skin/teeth so therefore in your narrow mind those with acne, eczema, gum disease etc MUST be addicts. Maybe it is you who has difficulty reading?

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

Not at all, i have just seen a lot of people with drug and alcohol problems and know the signs. at the end of the day i, along with many parents, would not be happy with their children being taught by a porn star! and just because you have get paid to have sex on film does not give you the right to tell anyone that they dont have the right to an opinion about who is trusted around their kids!

I have read the article on this in the closer magazine. Oh my god i cant believe the airhead girlfriend is in there defending him after only knowing him for 5 minutes. Not only has she made a show of herself but she has exposed her two children for absolutely no reason. She has made a ridiculous statement that refers to her son growing up to become a porn star. Seriously, what the hell was she thinking. I feel so sorry for the kids, they are too young and innocent to have been made a part of this.

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

It's just your small minded opinion about it being degrading, people have sex all the time, for free! I think it's degrading stacking shelves. It is saf about the girlfriend saying about the son growing up to do porn though. He should make his own mind up!

If you take the time to read this weeks closer you will actually see what the girlfriend meant by what she said about her son following in his footsteps and that she never actually said she wants her son to be a porn star!

RE: 'Why shouldn't I be a teacher and porn star?'

lily-grace - the more u force ur child not to be something, and close them off from something, there more likely to do it. i have a degree in youth work, and oh how i wish you knew how often teenagers run off doing drugs, or becoming 'porn stars' because there parents have acted like is the devils doing.
you think being filmed having sex is degrading, and it instantly means your not intelligent? if you had a brain atall you would know jobs are hard to come by now, its a fucking recession! if it came to it i would prefer to have sex on camera than claim benefits. maybe its pride but i would not live off money i hadnt earned it. also, i know alot of sex workers who have background in the sex industry. i used to work with an alcoholics daughter, the alcoholic is now off drink and works for the samaritans. you obviously have a narrow minded view of the world. and personally, i would love to see you teach a sex ed lesson!
