A special class for the girls in their second year.

As she waited for her students to arrive, Professor Goodwitch looked over the material that she'd prepared for the class that she was about to teach, sighed and suppressed a blush with the ease of long practice. As uncomfortable as this subject tended to be, it was something that came up in every Huntress' career eventually, and both history and personal experience had proven that it was better to teach their rising stars about this sooner rather than later. After a final check to make sure that everything was present and in the correct order, Glynda left the room to wait in a hidden teacher's lounge nearby.

Timing things perfectly, Glynda strode back into the classroom exactly as the bell rang, taking a quick accounting of the students present with the ease of both a trained Huntress and years of practice teaching.

Good, all the students that were supposed to be here were present, and no male students had made their way here instead of to Taiyang and Qrow's class.

"Good morning, class. I am sure that you all are curious as to what you will be learning about today, given that the title of this class was blacked out in your scrolls. I am sure you are also wondering why there are only female students in class today." Seeing that she had everyone's attention, Glynda continued, "Most of you are in your third year at Beacon, and those of you who aren't have been involved in a number of rather public incidents." Team RWBY and the female half of Team JNPR studiously looked away as she passed her gaze over them.

"This is a class that is reserved for students that are either soon to enter the public eye as Huntresses or have already done so and started to be more recognizable to the public. As such, there is a subject that you all are starting to be subject to with varying degrees of awareness."

Seeing her class looking at her mostly with intrigue and confusion, with the occasional face of dawning mortification, the Huntress got to the point. "Put simply, this class is meant to make you aware of the sexualization of Huntresses."

The variety of responses to that statement was always a cornucopia of fresh intel on what to expect of her students. Frankly speaking, most huntresses have to deal with, at most, pornography of Huntresses in general and men who found 'Huntress hunting' to be a worthwhile endeavor. A few of them who were more attractive and/or achieve more notable deeds would find the occasional bit of fanart or written erotica featuring them. Their reactions were relatively unimportant for now, especially as they'd be getting the training to deal with such in this class before it became too much of an issue.

The real potential problems laid with those who had already started to grow a following of sorts. Those girls are the ones that she needs to evaluate quickly and effectively so as to better teach them how to handle themselves when lustful gazes inevitably evolved from mere admiration of their bodies to attempts to partake of such.

Ruby Rose was blushing and looking down at her hands as they fiddled with each other, but otherwise seemed unbothered. An interesting reaction from the youngest woman here, but we'd see how she holds up as the lesson continues.

Weiss Schnee was lit up scarlet to a degree that actually led Glynda to worry a little about her health. The way that she's absolutely sputtering in indignation is not helping, but it would appear that the heiress' main reaction was indignant rage.

Blake Belladonna had a small blush on her face and was glancing down and to the side while fidgeting slightly. Hmmm, if she had to guess, she'd say that Miss Belladonna was much more aware of the lewder stereotypes attached to their profession. Given her fidgeting, it would not surprise Goodwitch if she had indulged in reading Huntress-themed erotica before.

Yang Xiao Long's reaction was interesting. She seemed to be attempting to play things casual, but the spots of pink on her cheeks and the way that she hugged herself a bit and seemed to try to sink into her seat a bit implied a further degree of discomfort with the subject than the rest of her team.

Nora Valkyrie didn't seem to have a notable reaction, acting as she normally does. Odd, even such a boisterous girl should have at least SOME reaction to the idea that the nameless masses were likely imagining her naked and performing various sexual acts. Looking closer, she does seem to have a look of slight...confusion? That...is mildly concerning. Glynda might need to keep her after class.

Pyrrha Nikos blushed fiercely, but it seemed that she was already familiar with the concept of Huntresses being sexualized. Likely from her time in the tournament circuit. She's clearly still shy about it, but with how widespread her name was, it's only natural that she'd either find out or have already been told by now.

Coco Adel sported a light blush but refrained from reacting otherwise. It's possible that her previous modeling experience has already prepared her for the fact that a good number of the citizens that she protects would love to see her naked.

Velvet Scarlatina on the other hand looked absolutely MORTIFIED. Ah, she might be aware of how... unusually popular her variety of Faunus was for pornographic productions. Still, it's important that she learns the lessons that this class has to offer her.

Finishing up her evaluations of the students that both she and Ozpin had judged to be most in need of instruction, she continued speaking, "It seems odd, at first, that those who risk their lives to defend humanity from the Grimm might be looked at with a lustful gaze, but gratitude and admiration of qualities such as our bravery and discipline against the slavering hordes turns to admiration of the body and lust all-to-easily." Blushes deepened and several of her students seemed to be developing a bit of anger at the idea that the people that they'd risk their lives to save would turn around and use the thoughts of them as puerile masturbation material.

"I shall clarify that this is NOT necessarily a bad thing." Much of the class looked to be gobsmacked, only keeping silent because of the respect that she'd instilled in them over their time at Beacon. "From a purely pragmatic point of view, men are more likely to listen to a woman that they find attractive, and this phenomenon also helps with recruitment numbers for both Combat Academies and local security forces." Looks of dawning understanding were starting to appear. "What's more, it has been proven that in areas with larger numbers of men that the presence of a Huntress as opposed to a Huntsman reduces Grimm presence more overall as less Grimm are drawn to settlements by negative emotions in the area. I will refrain from explaining exactly why, but I will simply state that arousal and any...supplementary feelings... are often incompatible with the emotions that draw Grimm." Ah, the various looks of mixed mortification, horror, and slightly-aroused consideration were something that she took pride in every year.

A hand raised, the heiress still sporting a blush that looked to be closer to the color of her teammate's cloak than her normal tone. "Yes, Miss Schnee?"

"W-why do we have to acknowledge such a thing! Is it not shameful for people to look upon their protectors, those that risk their lives against the Grimm with lust? Do we really have to accept such a thing, as if we were common p-prostitutes?!"

Goodwitch listened to Weiss' question patiently, before responding firmly, but not unkindly. "I hardly think that anyone would consider a Huntress a common prostitute." Glynda smiled a bit more malevolently, "Indeed, from what I hear, Huntresses can, on average, pull roughly 30% more Lien per customer than non-Huntress whores." Glynda enjoyed the way that the borderline-albino young woman sputtered in shame and confusion for a couple of seconds before dropping her face into a more neutral look more appropriate for teaching. "Just because we have to learn to accept that the sexualization of Huntresses happens doesn't mean that we have to indulge whatever fantasies the public has about us, Miss Schnee, nor do we have to be okay with it happening."

Miss Schnee looked both relieved and slightly confused, "But...then why are we having this class?"

Glynda smiled a bit and straightened up, "We are having this class because as Huntresses, you need to be aware of every advantage and disadvantage at your disposal. I personally teach this class because I am a Huntress that is sexualized more than most." She gestures down at her body and up at her hair, "With my physique and my hair color, I tend to fall into some less-than-savory stereotypes, stereotypes that are not helped by the fact that my name is very easy to make sexual. I side-step the 'blonde bimbo' stereotype by deliberately evoking an entirely different stereotype with my method of dress. That of the 'sexy librarian.' This helps streamline procedures in an emergency when I have to deal with the occasional sexist idiot in charge of a local guard or police ****."

Professor Goodwitch surveyed her class as she allowed her words to sink in.

"Now, our lesson today has several parts:

Firstly, we will be exploring fanart and erotica of Huntresses so as to give a visual as to how the people of the world see some of you in a lustful manner.

Secondly, I will be instructing you all on identifying 'Huntress hunters,' or in other words, men who make it a point to bed as many Huntresses as possibly as often as possible, and whether or not they are worth your time.

Thirdly, we will be discussing how to turn this situation towards monetary gain if you feel the need to. Huntsman equipment can be quite expensive to maintain when outside of the main cities of the Kingdoms.

Finally, we will discuss how to keep yourself and others safe during a sexual situation. This involves more than merely making your partner use a condom so as to prevent unwanted pregnancies."

With the class thoroughly blushing, but paying attention, Professor Goodwitch reached over and picked up her slide remote.
