Is "yeast" a bad word?

[Anonymous]

I am curious to know because my 8 year old son got detention for using it. During free time in his English class he wanted to explain his classmates how his mom makes bread. He said "you put flour, water, and then yeast," and his teacher was offended by the last part he gave him detention for two days. The principal warned him not to use profanity again.

Since, when has "yeast" become a curse word?

Since when has that become a bad word? Sounds like to me don't that I say now probably thinking that he's referring to a yeast infection of woman in the beginning which is obviously have to do with sexual health. The fact that the principal and the teacher gave him the tension over that show that you need to put him in a different school and have their bums investigated. There is no indication that he was saying something out of term. Like honestly.

I don't know if he was understanding what he was saying or not. But after reading what you're saying it sounds logical to me. Maybe they'll assume that he was just being whatever, and just wanted to recommend him and and Show an example out of him. Which I think right there indicates something is obviously wrong and there's no actual warrant for it. Again please get your kid to a different School.

What the actual fuck? No yeast isn’t a bad word, never has been. Take that shit up the chain of command and make the teacher apologize to your kid.

Huh. I don't get it. Is that all there is to it? I could see if the kid was like, "Then some yeast!" and grabbed the teacher's crotch. But otherwise I'm confused.

Yeast isn’t a bad word. It’s either a ingredient or a infection. Either way it’s not a bad word. So I would fuck that teacher up if that was me.
