Her supporters have come out in force though suggesting that Brown’s appearance has no bearing on her ability to teach.

‘what’s wrong with her clothes? Her dress isn’t short, she’s not showing her chest, she just got curves no matter what she wears her curves are going to show.’ One of her Instagram followers wrote. 

What do you think? Should teachers have to tone down their look for the classroom?
