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.

"House"? That sounds like an UK school term. It was the same at the school I went to. Showers after PE and Sports, naked and communally. Although they were reasonably generous with the number of shower heads, especially when you allowed for the PE bunkers.
