Another question about nude male school / YMCA swimming

Did the adults know, or at least suspect, that many of the boy swimmers were getting a genuine sexual thrill from displaying themselves to any females that happened to be present? That those stiff peckers weren't just the result of “nerves”?

Did anyone ever make any offhanded jokes or comments about that, or exchange any knowing looks?

There was no coed gym/swim then. so there were only males present for school nude swiming.

Never had a female peer in the pool or locker room at the YMCA during nude swims or changing clothes. Don't remember seeing anyone with an erection -but I wasn't really looking.

Swimming for the girls was on a different day. No coed. Pool doors were locked & the only windows were way up high. Teachers had trunks on.

I had nude swim lessons at the YMCA when I was young. It was all male, no females around. Went to YMCA summer camps and the day started with nude swim time at the Y pool and then we were shipped off to a park for the day. Same thing, no females around while boys were nude.

I can not remember any females, young or old, ever being present at the swimming pools at the YMCA. Nor anything about erections or even sexually tinted jokes or making fun of one another. I was there in 1959/60 so almost everyone was circumcised except for myself and 2 or 3 other boys. That was one thing I did notice, but not because anyone even mentioned it. At least not to me

I think you are referring to/asking about stories/accounts that talked about high school nude swimming where there would be occasional swimming meets or contests where the participants were said to be nude and where parents, siblings and such were allowed to attend.

I'm not sure about the veracity of such accounts, though I suppose it was done in some few high schools at times.

This reminds of stories and purported accounts of pupils being naked in school during sex ed class, with someone volunteering to be nude as a sort of living model for the others to see and study. I've read such stories on other forums, even serious ones like Quora. It still doesn't make me believe them really though, what with the sexual hysteria in some schools about the presence of mere books on sexual matters or who is mandated to use which restroom.

I also experienced nude swimming at the YMCA in the late 1950’s-early 1960’s time period. My younger brother and I went to the YMCA every Saturday morning for swimming, bowling and gym. Great times. Virtually all of the guys were circumcised at this small town YMCA in Southeastern Michigan about an hour outside of Detroit. In the summers, we would pile into a bus and spend the day at an area lake playing outdoor sports, including swimming. No girls/women were around except for an occasional visit from the older front desk lady to deliver a message to our swim coach. Saw ”it all” there, and never felt uncomfortable nor experienced any unwanted sexual-like advances. Joined the Y again in the mid-1980’s and everything had changed…and NOT for the better IMHO.
