In my high school, the locker rooms had individual stalls for dressing/undressing with a curtain in front. The showers were also in individual stalls with curtain in front. So, no one had to be with another naked person.
I guess, today, the govn. would insist all be naked in front of each other to see if each was equal in portions of their bodies. I’m beginning to think we don’t need a government, period, just live independently with proper security. I’m going to go live with John Galt and friends. “Atlas Shrugged”. If any of you feel the same, I’ll see you there.
No, most Americans truly believe “the government” is there for their protection and well-being.
I went to jr. high and high school in the 80s. We had gang showers, just like boot camp. Showering naked in front of others of the same sex was an embarrassing rite of passage.
Following these stories though, I've read that group showers don't really take place much in high school these days.
Sure, no one ever accidentally left the shower curtain open a bit for a little peek a boo or it never fluttered open or the heat of the shower or you moving about caused it to open. The little freak needs to go back to its own XY locker room.
I was the first and only girl (yes, XX) in ag class so had to change in the storage room and they put a lock on it for me. The next year, they were building a new ag building so had to redraw the plans to accommodate girls. However, there was a boys' restroom and a girls' restroom and no one was confused as to their genders.
In my junior high school and high school, everyone showered in front of each other, it was no big deal.
I was surprised to hear that kids today don’t do what we did in the ‘60’s and ‘70’s...I wonder why it changed?

Did you go to a private school, because I’ve never seen a high school locker room with private showers and dressing rooms.
Schools, college gyms and dorms, frat houses, military.
All open bay. I didn't even know individual dressing stalls existed.
