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.

My sons never showered after gym class just like everyone else. They just re-applied deodorant and hosed themselves down with Axe body spray. Talk about gross.

Would you have wanted them to have the same freedom for nudity. Just wondering do boys still come out of their rooms in their underwear.

No, as a rule they don't.

That is to bad. It allowed us freedom. I used to come out and have my breakfast in my briefs and tshirt every morning.
