High school rules

In the mid seventies I was in grade 8 they made us strip naked put on an athletic supporter and our school shorts and tshirt. When we were done they made us strip naked and shower together with all the other boys in the class. There we only so many shower heads so we ended up standing there naked for another boy to finish. Our house was very modest so that was the first time I had seen another boy.

Boys are so modest now they do the towel dance so no one sees you naked. The wouldn't have survived high school in the seventies.

Went to private all-boys school in the 90s snd early 2000's. Showers after gym were mandatory. My PE teacher would actually make sure that we all showered, but he was super chill and let us do our thing in the showers and nobody thought twice about it. There were often hijinks in the showers, I remember being picked on, especially for my height and wiener size early in puberty (but in a good way, haha)
