As everything from the allegations made against Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity to the prosecution of an innocent British geography teacher tends to indicate, men are well-advised to professionally steer well clear of women and girls:

A geography teacher cleared of raping a pupil has warned that men should steer clear of the profession, after a false allegation shattered his dream career.

Kato Harris, a former head of department at an all-girls school in London, was accused of attacking a 14-year-old three times in a classroom during lunch breaks in autumn 2013, but was found not guilty after a trial last year.

The 38-year-old said before his ordeal began, "life was like a wonderful dream", and with a successful career and a child also on the way he was "looking forward to a great future".

In an interview with the Mail on Sunday, he has disclosed that "one of the biggest challenges" he now faces is forgiving his accuser, something he said he will do, "just not now". He told the newspaper: "I would certainly advocate that no man qualify as a teacher. It is just not worth it. What is the lesson here? There is nothing to protect the male teacher."

A jury found Mr Harris, from Richmond, not guilty of all charges following his trial at Isleworth Crown Court.

When people can tie up two years of your time or end a decades-long career with nothing more than a dubious accusation, you had better keep well away from them. They can talk up "women in science" or whatever all they like, but a man would have to be utterly insane to mentor any woman who isn't directly related to him.
