Abstract

Gender order had put female teachers in peripheral position through various legal decisions from the late 19th to the mid-20th century. they were confined professionally and conditioned in all-wrong marital status. gender order was so seriously taken by the State so that women teachers were restricted in actualizing their potential and conditioned to be inferior, subordinated, and domesticated. women have been used as a reserve army when no man was found and were seldom heads of any but the smallest country schools where no man could be found to take the position, except a handful of girls departments in large city schools. Moreover, women's marital status was likely conceptualized to be always 'wrong' in relation to the teaching profession. Even advocates of tenure rights held on to stereotypes of women which affetc them in deficit ways. while earlier generations praised single women teachers for their purity and commitments to their job, the next generations began to worry about their 'deviance'.
