    What the fuck kind of school gym class doesn’t have any alternative to kids taking their shirts off in class?

    Even the poorest public schools have crappy colored jerseys that go over the regular gym clothes.

    In the grand scheme of shit that never happened, this is near the top.

        Highschool in hicktown, our salty freak of a gym teacher would let girls stay inside and walk laps.

        Boys go outside to play whatever sport, or sometimes go to the tiny wrestling room for dodgeball, and it’d be shirt v skins. Usually he’d pick the fat kids to be skins cuz they needed more “motivation”.

        Weird to me that people think shirts v skins is fake when there’s way weirder shit schools do to kids. We had our biology teacher take the class to his barn down the road and help shear his alpacas for extra credit. Like, school staff can do whatever the hell they want, and kids will just say “okay” if they don’t know any better.

          Meh, we played shirt vs skins in summer when it was getting hot outside. They had sashes but people just wanted to be a bit cooler.

            We played shirts vs skins in the middle and high school gym. If we had sashes I never seen them.

            One of many reasons I didn’t dress out and got suspended every 3 days for 3 days until the principal figured out it was happening.

            God I hated my gym teacher.

      Literally every school in the 70s and 80s. EVERY SCHOOL. That shit really did happen, because I got a F in PE over this exact issue.

        No idea why everyone is defending a 4chan green text with anecdotes from 30+ years ago.

        It’s a green text, it’s fake. That’s just a general rule. But even if we pretend it’s real, it’s 4chan, it’s being posted by a kid, probably 14-17, but no current school is going to go anywhere near that type of shit, they’d be sued immediately in this society.
