Depends if you went to school in a prison or not...
EDIT: Mind you, our school building was so old the showers didn't work.

haha well if that were the case here, (no offense intended by this) but our fat/ghetto kids would never pass p.e. then, they would have hell trying to do some of those things everyday. they do participate but in the most minimal way possible (walking around the track doing nothing basically), and most teachers don't want to have them in their class again so they pass em with a D ( D is barely passing, idk what your grading scale is based on)Jonluw said:Apparently. I'm absolutely dumbfounded.trollnystan said:So showering after gym is something only Scandinavians do?Wow. Your P.E. sounds really lax.gmaverick019 said:well in our P.E., the kids who want to participate (me and my friends) we did so, had some fun, but we didn't sweat like hogs so the slight use of some deoderant or maybe body spray worked just fine, and for the people who didn't participate they just would walk around the track or w/e and not break a sweat either so they didn't really require showers either..
most of did shower once or twice a day as it is, so adding one into p.e. didn't change much, the people who wanted to be smelly were smelly and the rest of us just smelled like axe or w/e deoderant we had mostly.
honestly besides the people who never showered anyways (which we did have those, i'm not sure if they were just too poor to afford the shower at home or if they just didn't care..but you could DEFINITELY tell who did and who didn't) , we didn't smell bad at all.
Over here it works sort of different. First of all, participation is required like in any other class, and you get grades, again like in any other class.
If you manage to get through the class without breaking a sweat, you either have a broken leg, or you are going to get a really poor grade.
A normal P.E. class consists of us playing basketball or bandy or football (that's soccer to you), which doesn't really wear us completely out (we're still pretty damn sweaty though).
However, certain parts of the year we will focus on strength. Then, an average class works like this:
Do push-ups for 2 minutes, 1 minute break. 2 more minutes of push-ups, 1 minute break.
Pull-ups for 2 minutes, 1 minute break. 2 more minutes of pull-ups, 1 minute break.
Sit-ups for 2 minutes, 1 minute break...
etc. for an hour or so.
Then we have the parts of the year when we focus on endurance. Those are the worst parts. Last time, we had to constantly run and jump our way through an obstacle course for an hour. I was practically dead at the end of that lesson.
Two times a year, most schools (after 7th grade) will also ask you to either run 3000 metres (2 miles) or take the Cooper test (run as far as you can in 12 minutes).
My personal record on the 3000 meter test is 11 minutes and 17 seconds.
I do worse on the Cooper test for some reason. I only reach 2900 metres.
As for the showering twice a day thing: I have P.E. class first thing in the morning, so I just skip my morning shower and take it at school instead.
Also (not a reply to you per se): People get stalls in their showers? Wow. We just have an open room with showerheads sticking out of the wall.

(Dave cleans underside of Mark's penis.)
"This sure is a nice cock."
"Well, buddy, I can't even see yours with that towel in the way!"
(Cue the dated midi-funk.)
Having a bunch of macho guys comparing their sizes in a school shower ranks right up there in "list of experiences I never want to have any part in" somewhere in front of "slapped with a fish" and right below "having my cock bitten during oral sex".Jasper Jeffs said:I do it all the time with my brother.

Those are called never-nudes, and it's a very serious and not at all funny phenomenon!Jonluw said:Just like the rest of adolescence.Palademon said:Why do it?

When we were, like, 10-12 years old there were some who didn't want to shower, and some who showered wearing shorts. Still, when we had passed 14 people grew up and managed to not be so shy about being naked that it kept them from showering after having been sweating for an hour.
It's still sort of unbelievable to me that you don't shower after P.E.
Makes me want to create a new stereotype on British/American people: Smelly...

Also: I'm trying to find some porn-funk like that, but I can't find anything.
Which is hardly what I'm thinking of.
This is more romantic than porn-y.
You would think so, but you always get the kids who are too chicken to shower, or just decide that showering in Axe is good enough....Jonluw said:I thought that was pretty common practice. I certainly wouldn't want to walk around school soaked in sweat for the rest of the day.
Yes, that's really him.Jonluw said:snip
Our's is on a scale from 1 to 6, where 6 is best, and 1 is failing.gmaverick019 said:haha well if that were the case here, (no offense intended by this) but our fat/ghetto kids would never pass p.e. then, they would have hell trying to do some of those things everyday. they do participate but in the most minimal way possible (walking around the track doing nothing basically), and most teachers don't want to have them in their class again so they pass em with a D ( D is barely passing, idk what your grading scale is based on)Jonluw said:Wow.

Thanks. I'm not in that good shape now though. That was back when I was 15...p.s. nice job on that 2 miles time, thats pretty damn good
if you told me to go play soccer/football for 2-3 hours i could do that and be just fine afterwards
Hahaha, it used to happen at the school I was in. There were a lot of athletes and gym goers. Nearly all of them would pretend they were gay by making grunting noises, grabbing people's dicks or doing other gay shit like licking their face. I don't know why they did it, I assume to make people feel uncomfortable. They saw it as a joke, I don't think they realised how gay it actually was. It reminds me of this:ReservoirAngel said:Having a bunch of macho guys comparing their sizes in a school shower ranks right up there in "list of experiences I never want to have any part in" somewhere in front of "slapped with a fish" and right below "having my cock bitten during oral sex".Jasper Jeffs said:I do it all the time with my brother.

Sure, guys whipping their dicks out in a shower to flash them around sounds ideal for a cock-loving sexual deviant such as myself, but the reality of it is that it's one of those situations that's better left in potential fantasies, since in reality it will always be a MASSIVELY awkward situation at best, the set-up to a pre-planned gangbang at worst.
hmm, this is... interesting, to say the least. >.>Nimcha said:I have no idea. But let me just say, I used to compare my boobs to the others. So I can understand why guys would do this.![]()
