Some questions about gym. Yeah, it's stupid, but I kind of want to see if the culture was the same across the county.
1) Did you shower after PE in middle school? High school? Did you get towel service?
2) Did your schools have gang-bang (one-room) showers or private stalls?
3) Did the toilet stalls in your locker room have doors?
Seemingly, no one showered after gym in middle school (Longfellow); there was no time. Most people got towel service, wiped off, and applied deodorant.
In high school, again, most people didn't shower and there was no towel service (at TJ). While I never ended up showering in gym, I would sometimes shower after pick-up bball if I wasn't going home immediately. Our locker room had both gang-bang and private stall showers, with the former being much cleaner.
The toilets at TJ had stall doors. The toilets at Longfellow did not. There are few things more disgusting than walking in a bathroom and seeing some kid pounding out a growler in full view of everyone. Seems like having no stall doors encourages more crime (possible fights, pranks, etc.) than it might prevent (like doing drugs or smoking).
