I said most, and therefore avoided generalisation. Clearly, furthermore, I was referring to teachers who I have had contact with, further limiting the number of teachers I defamed.

Also, I never said that I don't appreciate those teachers.
Why are you placing so much weight on the looks of an individual? The worth of teachers is measured not in their physical appearance, but in their ability to teach. Not one of the teachers I mentioned failed to teach me- in fact, those teachers (save one) were some of the best teachers I have ever had.

It's interesting, however, that you equate a lack of height, obesity, and flatulence (that wasn't a joke) with disrespect, thereby implying that individuals with such physical characteristics are somehow inferior.

Debate aside, I retract my previous statement. It was unfair, as it could be seen as an attack at all female teachers in the UK rather than a commentary on the physical characteristics of a select group which I have had contact with.
