Wow. Don't recall that exception rule at all. Most likely if a girl felt ill for a variety reasons (not necessarily menstrual), she was allowed not to participate in certain activities during class or sit out. But that was extremely rare based on my memory of those classes.
Showering after gymn, was expected but at our own discretion. So if a girl had a period, she just didn't do it if she didn't want to.
Based on seeing some of the jogging teens today from school who are allowed to wear all sorts of attire to jog, there should be some base requirements for looser clothing. Saw teens jogging in tight jeans, etc. Uncomfortable.
