Gay skype forum how to#
Can anyone tell me anything about how and where apartment sharing is most common? Do the schools own housing? Are there some places where you would have to live in a dormitory with the students? When in the process does the housing situation become available? Is it part of the package/benefits whatever the right term is? I am trying to figure out how to make my short list, and the issue of housing should not be the biggest criteria. Here people are forced to negotiate around the issue all the time.I believe that right now, somewhere there is a place that will hire me on the basis of my knowledge and skills and not force me to live a lie. And thank you for the perspective around the idea of stating ones sexuality could seem aggressive or politically, is so difficult. I knew about the shared apartments and that was part of the impetus for my original post. I'd argue that many int'l schools are very progressive in this manner. Also, does your partner bring any non-teaching skills that might benefit the school? That might be a selling point.
That might alleviate the concern from the school's perspective. I'd be expressly clear that your partner does not need a job, nor expects benefits.
Why not try contacting schools directly? Be upfront with the situation. We had a few couples who were living together, although I'm not sure if they were hired as a couple. There was also a gay community in Singapore (though not openly)- though I read that's not important to you. When teaching in Singapore we had a few teachers/admins who everyone knew were gay. Couples with a non-teaching partner sometimes have a hard time getting jobs as schools would rather bring over two people who are going to teach.Īlso, why do you think SE Asia is a significant problem. Your post leads me to believe your partner will not be teaching? If so, I'd say that might be a hurdle that might be harder to get over.
