Teacher suspended after video shows him walking around school in a dress: students stand up for him
A high school teacher in Texas has been suspended after a video surfaced showing him walking in class in a tutu and talking to students in a dress.
SSPDaily tells about it.
In one video, chemistry teacher Rahmad Tiahyadi is shown in a pink dress, while in other photos he can be seen writing on the board in a colorful tutu.
The videos, captioned "This is a grown man," have generated a number of negative responses calling for the teacher's dismissal: "He should be arrested," "Keep your fetishes behind closed doors."

As a result, he was suspended from work.
Meanwhile, students rushed to support their teacher and created a petition on Change.org. They claimed that the footage of Rahmad in the dress was taken on "spirit day" and demanded that he be allowed to return to class.
More than 3,500 people signed the petition. "He is called a pedophile, but he is not, and he is loved by many students," wrote petitioner Julia. "He is a great teacher, he explains chemistry very well and has created a very fun and safe environment for his students. In fact, many students in his class encouraged him to wear this dress in the first place. He has pushed many students to become better and shows genuine concern for his students. The recent decision to place him on probation has left our community disappointed and saddened. It would be a great loss for Gevron High School to lose a teacher like Mr. Tiahadi."
