For the random older person. It used to be a bit different, I think. Open showers and no stalls. Plus, The girls and boys had segregated health classes in school. And they had required showers, etc. Seems like my mother said some things, and perhaps I read things about how it used to be different? Foggy on details though.

Now, along with being uptight, everyone is concerned about safety. Especially for their kids. People don't grow up like that anymore.

We had segregated health classes and big open showers that were mandatory. I hated it as the girl that got boobs early. I had the same gym teacher from 6th grade through 10th grade, when gym ceased to be mandatory. She used to bring her girlfriend to work fairly frequently. They would pass out towels as we came out of the shower. Back in the 60s we gave no thought to her sexual preference. I didn't know she was gay until long after high school and met up with her a few times. Nice woman but the girlfriend at the gym was not appropriate. I think in our small town no one had a clue.
