  Case: Seriously
I am a Lesbian and will soon be in the classroom teaching. What I find to be discouraging is that students will be able to tell I am lesbian by just my looks. I am worried that they will not respect my title and me as their instructor. How can I bridge the gap between them disrespecting me/ judging me and them respecting me regardless of how I look?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This question goes beyond your sexuality and deeper as a person. Children should be taught to respect people period. This is an important lesson to teach children. I know there are many books and videos on multicultural and diversity. These issues of prejudice and fear need to be address at an early age, so you are at a perfect advantage as a teacher to be able to bring these things to forefront. Education is the key to breaking these barriers of respect, for people of all kinds. The Holocaust is a great example of what happens when a dictator wants everyone to look and behave the same. We are all created equal, unique and valuable...teach them that, they will respect you.

Comments: I appreciated the comment that students (and people in general) should be respectful of all people, not just because the person is their teacher. The last bit seemed a little unnecessary, but the point on respecting people is definitely my sentiments on the topic.
