I never played it in school, but definitely at like summer camps that were less organized..

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.

This is the world I grew up in.

I transferred from a middle school in a different county and showering was required at their junior high. Compulsory fully nude showers seems kinda weird looking back Not that long ago either, pretty sure it was well after that was a common practice.

There were showers in the locker rooms when I was in school, but the ordinary gym classes never used them. (Maybe the sports teams did?) I think I would rather have dropped out than showered naked in school.

Exactly. Not at high school gym class.

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.
