I'm glad my gym class experiences were a lot less severe o_O

Some guys showered, but you weren't required to take showers except for pool, and you could do that in your swimsuit...as for getting dressed after pool, I'd hurry into the locker room and quickly switch into my clothes without even hitting the showers...so I reeked of chlorine all day ;D

Changing into gym clothes was okay...all my shirts were long, and nobody ever got flak for wearing a towel.

As for being called a sissy...well...not exactly "sissy", but kids sure threw the word "gay" around a lot :roll: And a few less savory terms that I won't mention on this forum.

Aye, I had that too. It usually stopped by the time I reached 16. I've never been called 'sissy' though, but it's not a word that's used much where I come from.

No, at least not to my face. I think the word "sissy" is a little old fashioned.
