Kind of related, but telling comment. I teach 5th grade and we're starting a program to get more dads into the school setting and I'm the school liason. We have a lot of stay at home mothers that voluteer frequently. When we started talking about getting the men into the school, a teacher, and many agreed, that we should make sure we get background checks on the volunteers just to make sure none are on the sex offender registry. I've never heard anyone suggest that with any of our predominately female volunteers. I just found that kind of interesting.
