School swim inspection

I remember one female teacher almost always went through the boy locker to lock the doors to the swimming area. Even as a young kid I noticed this behavior and asked myself why she did that. I guess, she wanted to catch a glimpse of the boys. I never told my parents. And I guess no one else did.

@SabsSan could the teacher have only been doing her job…locking the doors?

Not something I remember from school, but in boot camp for the navy, our class had to swim naked. Our divisional officer certainly had a thing for young boys, as we were then 15/16.

We were always made to compete in races. We would stand on blocks and he would stand behind us and start us off. I am sure he delighted in watching several pink little rosebuds winking at him as we bent and dove in.

We were so busy getting ready, no one thought much of it at the time.

We had regular (non-nude) school swimming lessons. But I remember that our school had its own swimming hall and the teachers had to shut and lock all doors after lessons.

Or maybe they didn't want boys leering at developing girls in their swim suits or maybe something they might have been subjected to during their lessons…..

Thank you for sharing Southern, you have shown how repressive the UK was about nudity compared to the continent. I remember when we first lived there, we were invited to a family picnic at the park by friends at the tennis club. As soon as they got to the park, they all stripped off including our daughter and clearly expected us to do the same. Being Brits we stripped to our knickers as aside from embarrassment being naked in front of our friends, we were terrified we would be reported to the police, but nothing happen and a bit later we were in the buff, and it was so liberating.

Same thing happened at ours, normally only with a few still changing. It was a short cut to the office, but still.

Women can be pedophiles as well.

I had a comparable experience at a public high school, more recent than some of the original anecdotes of all-nude swimming (which I know did happen). All incoming 9th graders were required to take swimming in PE. The process was pretty regimented. Though we weren't forced to swim nude (it was co-ed), they required all students to use school-provided trunks, which you had to line up to get before each class. After class ended, all boys had to strip off suits before returning to the locker room, walk down a long corridor naked to the showers, and then dry off together after an attendant handed out towels one by one. then the towels had to be returned, and it was a long naked walk back to the lockers. Why did they do this? I'm sure part of it was to enforce subservience. It was a humilating experience, but interesting to see how “normal” it became after a couple of reps.

I don’t remember ever seeing nude swimming at the ymca or other public pools even as a child here in the USA. There was quite a bit of skinny dipping in private pools and at town ponds and lakes in off hours. I remember one night swimming nude at a lake with a girl at a party and she jumped out grabbed all the clothes and ran inside. I fortunately found a towel but she clearly wanted me to have to come in nude. However I do recall female gym teachers or coaches occasionally coming through the boy’s locker room because the male gym teachers and coaches offices were in the back of the locker room as well as some equipment was stored in a large closet in back.
