Everyone on the show was okay about it, and Ross even blackmails his student girlfriend's father into letting them continue to date.

My understanding was they didn't start seeing each other until after she was no longer in his class.

It's definitely something you'd be fired for as he was teaching her and he's in a position of authority over her
If she was just a student and he was a professor not teaching her or interacting with her, then fine.

But he was definitely scummy.

I think it's a stupid media trope but I don't think it's weird for uni

Edit: while she was his actual student is inappropriate I guess

Wasn't the "genesis" of them getting together her writing a flirtatious teacher review at the end of the semester?

Did it not continue that she was still going to have him next term though?

Ross was creepy as hell, after watching that video of him where they removed the laugh track and music/etc. He really seemed like he was going to kill that guy for eating his sandwich.

Every time this discussion comes up, someone mentions a "position of power". Newsflash: not all relationships involve a power struggle. Sometimes it's just too horny people that want to have fun.

Sure, but teacher/student relationships are not one of those times.

And as someone who can fucking be responsible for her failing her degree, he was in a position of power

Why would it be creepy? Not a good idea if she's his student, sure, but that doesn't make it creepy.

tbf, these shows are written with the laughtrack in mind, so removing them would obviously make things seem way weirder. Not just Friends, too, but any laughtrack sitcom.

Ross is definitely a weirdo, though. Like when he faked his own funeral to see who actually cared about him.

That's creepy
The dude was willing to let him continue to defile his daughter just so Rachel wouldn't find out about a mildly embarrassing pep talk ritual. So Bruce Willis wasn't exactly a role model either.

Ross is also a hypocrite because he mocked Monica for dating a college student (he was actually a high schooler but she didn't know that) and criticized Joey for hitting on women in his acting class.

I don't watch the so I could be missing out on a lot of the creepiness. But Ross was 100% right to be upset. What type of fucker steals somone's food .Fuck those people .

I got so stuck on the sandwich I forgot to comment on the main topic. Yeah that is horrible. Don't date your student in any context .

It went beyond getting upset, he screamed at the dude at the top of his lungs.

Really though, fuck that dude too. People like him deserve to get yelled at a bit.

I refused to date a student when I was a prof. Most universities have a policy against it for a reason.

Definitely, but he goes beyond normal upset. He legit looks and sounds like he is going to invite the guy over for dinner and murder him with an axe.

that asian lady went on to be the voice of amy in futurama
who matt groaning created to see if he could make slapstick done towards a pretty girl funny which is why amy frequently gets hurt in humorous ways

she also played a recurring role on supernatural and was one of the few female characters that didnt die
but she stopped appearing after like the 9th season i believe
