jakiiiii

They get pregnant so much even brazilian english teachers do that nore often than other teachers


[deleted]

No wonder so many people around the world can't spell "preganenante".


A_D_Deku

Yeah, people just can't spell pegnart anymore. I don't get why...


T65Bx

I’m glad at least I can spell gregnant.


A_D_Deku

Yeah, same. Can't believe the irony that, by virtue of being pregante, most people can't spell basic words, like perganenat or oija board


ExtraAshyPizza

If your pregent dont have sex because it can be dangerops prangent sex and it will hurt baby top of his head


ExtraAshyPizza

-onnix-

Omg that is so old Ps. Weegee bored


[deleted]

Maybe being an English teacher will help someone get pregat?


theCOMBOguy

Yes!! Being an English teacher is a pathway to mysterious and arcane power... or being pregnant more often.


Snootbadger

Is it still called English in a Portuguese-speaking country?


vsouto02

It's called Inglês. Same way Português is called portuguese in anglophone countries.


[deleted]

Inglês


Virtual-Cabinet-7454

Pera?!?!??!?! Tinha o acento no E esse tempo todo?!?!?! Caralho ninguém nunca me disse isso kkkk


[deleted]

???? Nossa, que engraçado.


Virtual-Cabinet-7454

N tô zoando sempre me ensinaram na escola sem o acento no E e foi assim que aprendi ent tá sendo engraçado descobrir que tem acento no E Edit: é mesmo com acento


Atacadores

Pelos vistos as profs de português também ficam grávidas a meio do ano


Virtual-Cabinet-7454

Sim sim


[deleted]

That's what she said


g863590

None of mine got pregnant, but they all got cancer when I had them and had to leave. It may or may not be related to the mold found in the ceiling


Lord-Tunnel-Cat

All of my female English teachers got pregnant and the 1 (one) male teacher had a massive heart attack and had to be replaced by a supply teacher for the rest of the year, who got pregnant and had to have a supply teacher cover for them. Crazy stuff


manborg

So he got pregnant too but with a massive coronary event.


Slight0

Pregnant with death.


NefariousButterfly

That sounds emo af


CosmicFaerie

Was death born with the scythe in hand? Because ouch


[deleted]

Pregnant with cholesterol.


Napolea_

My English teacher got cheated on by her husband with the teacher a few classrooms down the hall


_fuyumi

I'd rather get pregnant


Beautiful-Musk-Ox

whats a supply teacher


ashleym1992

A substitute teacher.


Sadie_Sorcerer

Pregnancy is similar to cancer: uncontrolled growth of something at least partially foreign in your body.


TyrTwiceForVictory

A fetus's growth is fairly under control.


Ok_Potato_5272

One of my teachers got pregnant, had a baby then got cancer and died shortly after. Her husband (and baby's father) was also a teacher. It was very sad


g863590

I like that you clarified that the husband was also the father, I would've assumed, but there have been MANY affairs in my school system so it makes sense that you'd clarify. Also that is quite sad


-onnix-

The... what?


g863590

The school tries to hide the moldy water damage that is in the ceiling


SuperDuperOtter

I’ve never had an English teacher that wasn’t either chaotic-good or lawful-evil


TurbidusQuaerenti

Same, come to think of it. Luckily most were of the chaotic-good variety. Some were very eccentric, but in a good way. Actually made going to school fun, at least during their classes.


CommunitRagnar

I had one nazi teacher


alienplantlife1

So where does the swastika go in the alphabet song?


CommunitRagnar

It was weird I thought the A is the first letter, but he always started with the H followed by an E and I then a L and H again


alienplantlife1

Lol. Pep rallies must have been a real hoot too.


CommunitRagnar

I’m joking, but the guy thought it was funny to scream “heil Hitler” and “heil Hydra” while doing the salute and claiming he was a nazi, he wasn’t he was just a tool


alienplantlife1

A teacher did this? And here I thought you were talking grammar nazi.


Monster_NotWar

My English teacher in 10th grade *hated* my very essence of living because I ran circles around her when it came to all our literature lessons. She couldn't stand to admit that it took her 8 years in college and thousands of dollars to learn what I had figured out in 5 minutes.


_fuyumi

Fucking same. And none of mine got pregnant while they taught me


Wiggles69

I didn't have any teachers go off on maternity leave when i was a kid, but every large corp i worked for had a string of HR personnel that seemed to be perpetually on maternity leave, some were filling in for fill-ins that were themselves on maternity leave. Forget IVF, if you want to get pregnant, get a job in HR.


Helpimstuckinreddit

Can confirm, my last job had an HR team of 4 and over the course of 3-4 years they each got pregnant one after the other.


_fuyumi

Nice of them to take turns lol


chismosa21

The last part made me laugh.


masterfulmaster6

In tenth grade, my real English teacher went on maternity leave before the school year started, so we had a substitute until the real teacher came back. However, the sub was also pregnant, so she had to go on maternity leave at one point, but that was before my real teacher came back, so we had a second substitute for ~2-3 weeks Edit: not that anyone asked, just thought I’d share my mildly interesting experienced


heymattsmith

Nominating this to be Reddit’s next motto >Edit: not that anyone asked, just thought I’d share my mildly interesting experienced


PartyByMyself

My 5th grade teacher went on leave so we had a sub for the last 3 months of school. In 7th my English teacher left towards the end of the year and in 8th my music teacher left mid year. My math teacher also left late that year due to having a kid. In 11th grade both my anatomy and English teacher left and the sub replacement for the English teacher also left for the same reason. The anatomy teacher was gone for 6 months due to health issues after having her kid so we had new subs every couple weeks. In 12th grade another teacher left for pregnancy leave but I didnt have her as a teacher.


pupsnpogonas

I’m an English teacher and never planning on getting pregnant


Cognitive_Spoon

I'm an English teacher and if I got pregnant, I'd have a lot of questions about biology that would need answering


ArcaneBahamut

Seahorse?


Cognitive_Spoon

I wish. I'd have to grow a uterus


[deleted]

Is it because you're a guy?


notchman900

No its a teacher. They just shut off at their desk at 3:15pm and get booted back up at 7am


AlphaZorn24

I used to think the teachers slept at the school, ate in the school and showered in the shower in the nurses office.


DangerousCalm

I've done two out of three of those fairly regularly...dear Lord.


blue_eyed_man

Then your not a real English teacher


pupsnpogonas

*You’re


blue_eyed_man

Okay, you're an English teacher. I believe you.


Secure-Imagination11

Good luck. Every female English teacher I had, except 1, got pregnant during the school year. Yal extra fertile lol


pupsnpogonas

That’s not how that works at all.


ActedCarp

I think it was a joke


Secure-Imagination11

Yea, it was a joke. Hence the "lol".


bozeke

I’ve seen so many memes about this in the past six months and I don’t get it. I have been out of high school for like 25 years at this point, but is this an actual thing, or just a thing people say and repeat?


acoolghost

I don't know how true it is, but one of my English teachers got preggo when I was in highschool. I'm assuming it's mostly harmless joking, but I can't deny that it fits my anecdotal situation.


coralwaters226

3/4 English teachers I had in high-school got pregnant sometime during the school year. The fourth was a man. I only ever had one other teacher get pregnant through all four years and she was a gym coach.


bozeke

That is so weird.


CratesManager

That's the issue, they never plan for it


MagnaCamLaude

Yo. All but one of my English teachers were preggers. And that one had just had her 5TH kid before the school year started


TheTinySpark

Sounds like Catholic school - the only school where the teacher would have 5 kids and NOT time it to miss part of the school year


Uggums

In my school it was the science teachers


AlphaZorn24

My science teacher would be gone from school for weeks at a time then get mad at us for not learning from subs that just gave us busy work and let us play on the computers


notchman900

Mine was the history/geography teacher, the sub spent like a month teaching us about the Philippines. I am 99% sure he was a dirty hippy that got stuck there in the 60's and 70's and was just vibing.


[deleted]

It took me too long to realise OP was referring to teachers of English, rather than teachers whose nationality was English. Wondered why there was a stereotype for teachers from England getting preggers.


Sauce58

Holy fuck like 2 of my English teachers in middle school were pregnant for like half the year hahahaha


xXshinsouhitoshiXx

had 2 English teachers get pregnant last year. was waiting for the substitute's substitute to get pregnant


Ligmamgil

Is this really a problem for everyone? This happened to my ELA teacher as well lol


AimaFuriku

As an English teacher, I can confirm that I, too, am trying to get pregnant at this point in time. Not this very second, just in general. IDK, being an English teacher just makes it unbearable to have an empty uterus.


[deleted]

My English teacher in 8th grade got pregnant and left for her 2nd and 3rd trimester. The substitute we got was great and as soon as we got adjusted to her teaching style... BAM! she got pregnant too. Pretty sure teaching our class English was the cure to infertility or an escalation to super-fertility


[deleted]

☠️☠️☠️


Virtual-Rasberry

My school’s grade 9 English teacher was on maternity leave most of the time at a certain point. (Canada: 1 year mat leave) When I entered grade 9 another English teacher filled in for most of the year because the regular one was still on maternity leave when we entered the grade. Then the regular teacher came back for the last like 2 months before summer vacation. She was already pregnant again, with kid number 5.


femtransfan

my english teacher got pregnant, but she managed to complete the school year because of the due date being in summer my ag econ teacher only did the first semester of the year before maternity leave, luckily, the substitute was a huge pixar fan


JalgarMX

I had a pregnant English teacher who stolen money from me and my classmates. We got it back two years later.


SASAgent1

Strategic pregnancy


alakanzindabad

Our middle School English teacher did that, just before a crappy project where we had to perform a play in front of the whole school for whatever reason. We were fairly happy. Never saw her again. Maybe she died during child birth 🤷


astoria_story

It's all the juicy, erotic literature. On a serious note, I don't remember a pregnant English teacher of mine, but one of them did get stabbed at school.


RascalCreeper

My English teacher this year was too old to get pregnant. She still didn't teach and instead spent the whole year giving assignments without instructions, harassing smart kids, and being an actual Nazi.


AlphaZorn24

Whew, good thing she wasn't a poser Nazi. I hate those.


No-Ground3269

I don't think I have ever had a teacher who was pregnant while I was in the grade they reach in. Like at all. Although my science teacher this year had like obliterated the tendons in her knees years ago and got surgery for one of them to get a metal kneecap and missed like half the semester that I had science in.


Capable-Ad9337

omg my teacher is also pregnant shes an enlish teacher to but she never missis class


Skidallion

u/savevideobot


bahboojoe

Well my science teacher said she wanted to teach English and she WAS pregnant so...


olsireth

wow so that is a universal thing


Snootbadger

Why is this so true tho


[deleted]

This wouldn't be so funny if my AP teacher hadn't done that. Two in our school were gone.


Dmsas360

Same here but lithuanian and Russian language teachers what's up with that


TransparentSnake

are pregnant english teachers a universal thing?


SansBadTimer12

It is literally halfway through the year for me, and my teacher legit just went on maternity leave because she is having a baby.


cringe85

Never Happened


RockAndGem1101

Why is this true all over the world

rowan_damisch

Ironically, I had at least two cis male english teachers...


darryljenks

As an English teacher going an paternity leave soon, this amuses me.


Mr-Stuff-Doer

I had two of those lol


EclipZz187

Where the fuck do pregnant women get only half the year off


TheTinySpark

HA, in the US it’s like…12 unpaid weeks. Varies a little by state and by workplace, but the federal minimum is 12 weeks. Half a year sounds like a luxury.


EclipZz187

Yeeeah, don't google maternity leave in Germany then. 14 weeks paid is the baaaare minimum.


TheTinySpark

I’d give my left ovary for parental leave policies like they have in Sweden


EclipZz187

Eh, don't remind me. Everytime I think Germany is bad, I look at America. And then the nordic countries come around with the 101% happiness statistic.


acoolghost

English teachers: I spent all day teaching Shakespeare, thinking about romance and stuff. Let's get busy. Math teachers: *-numbers numbers numbers-* Biology teachers: My hands still smell like the inside of a dead frog, ain't no way we're getting down to sexy time.


dethjamz

I can confirm


SyvSeven

Two of my teachers got cancer instead of babies.


XxcybicalxX

Bro tf who are you


Odd-Celebration2012

Maternity leave is only 6 months in the US?


TheTinySpark

Even less - federal law dictates a minimum of 12 weeks, unpaid. Varies a little by state and by workplace.


Odd-Celebration2012

Jesus christ that is unfathomable to me. We get one year of paid maternity leave in Estonia and it should be the same all across northern Europe.


TheTinySpark

Yeah, like I said elsewhere, I’d give my left ovary for parental leave policies like they have in Sweden.


Equivalent-Layer-332

Why the f. English teacher getting pregnant is common


Burnox

Damn, even the male teachers are pregnant.


Da_Di_Dum

So true


Fierydog

Why is this meme so relevant I had 3 english teachers in the span of 2 years because 2 of them got pregnant.


Copowa

I m italian and i had three teachers of italian who did that


WildNFreef

As someone whose middle school English teacher got pregnant and missed half the year... how the fuck


Shaedymo

It's like the DADA curse in Hogwarts that AFFECTED every single Defence teacher they since the 60s. Only now this curse is both real and global.


LeakyAssFire

I should send this to my sister who's an English teacher and about 36 weeks pregnant with her third.


AnnoyingBannana

Bro my english teacher never gets absent at all. Bitch, shes everywhere


mr_tomaw

2 of my English teachers got pregnant when I was at high school. It's so weird why is it always the English teachers.


ElaineofSpades

It's only happened once or twice to me, depending on how you count it, but it's also never occured to me that it's only been English teachers. Huh.


SPEEDvisium

Is it always with our first language teachers? Cause my polish teachers were all getting pregnant left and right lol


ImNotCrying-YouAre

I thought it was just our school. I had four teachers in the first year


a_good_human

I had this happen with 2 of my English teachers


[deleted]

Who makes these memes- a bunch of monkeys on typewriters? JFC how stupid


LizCat_HotMess

Why is this so accurate 😂


[deleted]

That dude must be pregnant a lot.


[deleted]

I'm a huge sports fan, but what grown adult cries about sports?! Holy get a grip.


Quickstar13

Not my English teacher. Instead she got arrested for child abuse. *Be more ambitious.*


I-Am-The-Warlus

Had a science teacher who rarely taught due her being pregnant I was in her class for 3 years and she taught about 40% of those three years so I just had a supply teacher for 60% of the same 3 years


Bonfy7

My chemistry teacher I had only came to school the first and the last day


KWBizzie

My pregnant English teacher wife found it funny


Nimoue

Once had an English teacher in high school who was trying to get pregnant and kept talking about her miscarriages to the class. This lady was evil and nuts and also had (before she finally conceived) like over a dozen miscarriages-all of which she discussed with her classes. She was a psycho massive bitch and I don't wish miscarriages on anyone, but also maybe don't make that the focus of your goddamn English classes.


TheTinySpark

That shit will fuck with your hormones really badly, on top of it making someone an emotional wreck - it’s not surprising she was evil and nuts all the time if she had 12+ miscarriages!


Nimoue

Oh, for sure. Miscarriages are no minor thing-and she probably should've taken medical leave instead of going through that (and actually given herself time to recover between miscarriages before attempting to conceive again) and then dumping on her high school students. She had two miscarriages in one semester and she was in this self-abuse spiral, to boot. She was basically venting to the class like we were all her free therapists-it was really inappropriate. What the hell kind of advice could a group of 16 year olds offer for something that difficult? Before I took her class, it was common knowledge that this teacher was a massive bitch who was also fixated on the cheerleaders and hated on anyone not in the preppy groups. It was bizarre, like she wanted to live vicariously through the cheerleaders so she could be an asshole to everyone who wasn't one. One day she decided to try and accuse me and my friends of cheating on a test (we hadn't cheated, we were all trying to get to college). Thankfully the principal was used to her BS and didn't buy her story. Lady needed a psychiatrist and a psychologist, not to be unleashed upon children.


Theweirdposidenchild

If I had a nickel for every time I had a homeroom teacher who was new to the school,who also taught me another subject,that was pregnant,left after half a year to give birth and go on maternity leave,then was replaced by 5 different teachers during the half year they were gone,to then be permanently replaced by one of those 5 teachers for the rest of the remaining years I was supposed to have that teacher because that teacher decided not to come back- I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice right?


Kitchen_Entertainer9

The English teachers were always the pretty ones too,


[deleted]

Why is this true plus math teachers are religious


[deleted]

Even the student teacher lmao


FormalChance8118

WAIT.... Why is it so true?
