I was just shown this New York Times article https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/23/world/asia/indonesia-gay-teachers.html
It begins:
JAKARTA, Indonesia — Agree or disagree, the exam asked: “I would feel uncomfortable knowing my daughter’s or son’s teacher was homosexual.”
Or this, true or false: “The gender composition of an orgy would be irrelevant to my decision to participate.”
In recent weeks, foreign teachers at some private schools in Indonesia have been required to answer these questions and many more like them in what has been billed as a psychological exam.
It goes on to allege discriminatory hiring practices based on a belief in a link between homosexuality and paedophilia. Sigh.
Only one school is mentioned by name as admitting to screening like this, Mentari Intercultural School in Jakarta, but the implication is that all schools do it.
Have any of the teachers here experienced this?
