Line 22:
 
This behaviour and hatred of men passed on to her teaching, where she would give lower grades to male students, and distort even basic school science knowledge by including negative references to the male sex. She once deliberately made [[Kevin Thompson]] do an "experiment" designed to crush his self-esteem ("[[Too Cute]]"). She also uses "spend[ing] the period in independent study" as a threat against students like [[Upchuck]] - as "independent study" is a euphamism for being confined in a closet, something that caused Upchuck fear ("[[Fizz Ed]]").
 
She hates Anthony DeMartino and he regards her with fear, to the extent he tried to prevent [[Timothy O'Neill]] from marrying her for O'Neill's own safety. She has physically assaulted DeMartino in "[[The New Kid]]" (to scare him into changing the Yearbook layout) and "[[The Daria Database]]" (for no apparent reason). Despite that, in "[[Antisocial Climbers]]" it was DeMartino who was tasked to translate Barch's traumatised whimperings into English, which he was able to do.
 
In "[[The Big House]]", during a hockey game against DJs, Barch is seen having [[Rock N' Roll Randy]] in a headlock and punching him repeatedly while snarling "It's payback time, Randy!". It sounded like a personal vendetta: was Randy intended to have been her ex-husband?

Janet Barch would start a a romantic relationship with colleague [[Timothy O'Neill]] in episode [[The Daria Hunter]], which would last for the remaining of the series. The relationship was based initially on the attraction of a man with sensitivity, a concept she found paradoxical. In said relationship, she was extremely domineering and assertive, but the situation seemed to work well for both parties.
 
In ''[[Is It College Yet?]]'', the series finale, Barch would misinterpret a comment by O'Neill and assume they're engaged, immediately starting wedding plans. These plans would be halted and Barch would leave O'Neill when the latter finally stands up to her (with the help of [[Anthony DeMartino]]), but she'd come back to him just at the end of the movie.
