Working at a school as a teaching assistant

[NickTwisp]

I texted my buddy David & asked the question about what if a girl forgot her swimsuit. His answer: She would just be excused from that class that day. It was a definite double standard requiring a forgetful boy to swim in his underpants.

In my school it was similar — they also had spare swimming trunks for boys who happened to forget theirs, although no one wanted to wear them and usually in such a case we'd pretend to be sick. I remember one time I noticed in the locker room that I had forgotten mine, and that day I really wanted to swim (I don't remember why). I was 15 then. I told the teacher that unfortunately I couldn't participate because I didn't have a swimsuit, and he said they had spare trunks and a moment later he brought me a pair and told me to change. I remember my surprise when I put them on — they were probably about three sizes too big, but I figured I'd just tie them tightly with the drawstring and it would be fine, I didn't want to make any more trouble. Of course, that only helped a little, and I already knew that next time I forgot mine, I'd pretend to be sick ^^

Yeah, I can imagine it being kind of nerve-wracking swimming laps with the constant worry of the too large swimsuit coming down.

What was the worst when you forgot your swim suit at a school a day of swimming lesson, to be proposed to wear a too big size or a too small size?
or of course to be told to swim without a swimsuit but I doubt that it could happen in a mixed school ?

as regards to skip the swimming lesson by telling that you were sick, it would have not worked at my boys only school because we might have a medical form filled by the school nurse and it was difficult to lie to her since one of her first instruction when you arrived at the nurse's office was to remove trouser and brief and lift the shirt and sit in all fours on a medical table to let her take rectally your temperature.

later after the bebinning of year, we have heard that it was a rule fixed the previous school year after talks between her and the Pe teacher to prevent boys students of lying about their possible sickness.

I have to admit, rectal temperature measurement in a school just seems impossible.

I also find it hard to believe that any school would measure temperature rectally, sorry.

As for the rest of the questions — if the swimsuit were just a little too small, then of course I'd prefer that option over one that keeps falling off me. But usually, if it's too small, you physically can't squeeze into it.
As for swimming without a swimsuit — cotton underwear at a swimming pool is an absolute no-go where I live in Europe to this day, and going completely naked probably wouldn't be acceptable either, even if there were no girls around.

Certainly not now, but some very sketchy things probably went on in private schools 60+ years ago. Normally, rectal temperature checks are only done on infants & small children.

A rectal temperature reading is actually more accurate technically as it measures core body temperature.

[Happy Eastermann]

you are wrong it was possible of course it was in a far past in the first half of the 60 s at middle and high school
the school nurse could do it without any risk nor complaint by by students nor parents, it would have been useless since it was the most common way to check the temperature of minors, not only small kids but also teenagers not only at schools but in some doctor's offices who thought that the result was more accurate and also always at hospitals for the same reasons at least until 18 or 21 age. It was obvious that the school authorities did not have forbidden her to practice rectally taken temperature if it was her decision and practiced in her offfice, a least for boys because the idea that they did not need much respect of their privacy and modety was widely spread at that time.

During military service at the end of the 60's , it was also the common practice when you went to see the doctor , he wanted generally to take first your temperature and it was rectally, and very easy since you might strip before entering in his office under instruction of his assistant, not latter was the reason of your visit !

I went to a co-ed school but swimming lessons were gender segregated. There was a rumour that if you forgot your swimming trunks they would make you swim in the nude as underpants were considered unhygienic and the school didn't provide any spares

We thought it was just a joke until when we were around 14 years old, one boy did forget and was ordered to swim naked. The kid refused point blank at first. The teacher said "Ok then, go to the headmaster's office and get the cane for disobeying me". The kid swallowed his pride and spent the 45 minute period in the nude. Those of us standing in line on the edge of the pool who got a view of him diving in full length with penis pointing towards the water never forgot the lesson. He was the first - and the last - in our year to ever forget his trunks. We always took the bloody things with us every day just in case after "what happened to Lovett".

Too bad the classes were segregated.
