A cinematic complaint

.
Why is it that every film about a male teacher is about how great he is, and how he rescues his students from ennui and cynicism, and transforms the lives of everyone around him even though he's too humble to know what he's doing, while every film about a female teacher is about how cutely mousy she is, and how she can't find love because she's just too into her books, until some generic Hot Guy from her past shows up to sweep her off her feet and take her away from her drab little life and her twenty cats? Films about male teachers are always dramas; films about female teachers are overwhelmingly rom-coms.

Does anyone else see this?
