I Remember Physical Education In Vest And Pants [I Hated Physical Education Class]

Definitely more than once too, usually every other lesson there would be someone unfortunate enough to be compelled to run around in pants, vest and bare feet. Normally though it was a good incentive to remember your PE kit!

You'd think the shame of it would, but when you're a girl in a hurry it is amazing the number of times you manage to leave your PE bag on the kitchen table 😒

@QuietSophie That happen a lot to you?
QuietSophie · 26-30, F
@GkB01 Yes 😞
GkB01 · 51-55, M
@QuietSophie What was worse no shoes or no kit?
QuietSophie · 26-30, F
@GkB01 No kit. I don't mind doing PE in bare feet, but I do mind being made to do it in my underwear 😠

@QuietSophie I agree, I regularly had no plimsolls but always had the rest of my kit.

@GkB01 I often forget everything and had to do PE in my vest, pants and bare feet 😞
GkB01 · 51-55, M
@QuietSophie Were there others doing that or just you?

@QuietSophie Doesn't only apply to girls in a hurry, us boys too! But then I believe that the culture of society dictates that boys shouldn't care less about being made to parade in a cold gym in just our underpants and bare feet.

@Ross19 Don't recall having to do PE in underpants in older years, but certainly just shorts with no shirt on occasion, with of course bare feet.
Ross19 · 31-35, M
@GkB01 I'm mentioning our younger years... later on I carried my kit in my reading bag so I wouldn't forget!
GkB01 · 51-55, M
@Ross19 I always tried to remember my kit, bar forgetting on purpose my plimsolls of course so as to do inside PE in my bare feet.
QuietSophie · 26-30, F
@GkB01 It happened to other people, of course, but sometimes I was the only one in underwear in a particular lesson and it was very embarrassing 😥
Ross19 · 31-35, M
@QuietSophie Definitely sounds embarrassing Sophie.
GkB01 · 51-55, M
@QuietSophie I'd have tried everything to remember my kit the first time after it happened to me🙄

@Ross19 The school would phone my mum to see if she could bring it in. But she worked and was often too busy 😟 So then I had no option but to strip down to my vest and pants in the school hall.
GkB01 · 51-55, M
@QuietSophie Did your mum try to get you to remember to bring it yourself?
QuietSophie · 26-30, F
@GkB01 She tried, but the more she nagged the more I forgot 🙄
GkB01 · 51-55, M
@QuietSophie Were you ever told off for forgetting? That would have sorted me🙄
QuietSophie · 26-30, F
@GkB01 No, having to run around in my underwear was punishment enough 😟
GkB01 · 51-55, M
@QuietSophie Having to do something like that once, would have spurred me on to remember the next time.
Ross19 · 31-35, M
@QuietSophie The school phoning mum thing reminded me of the time I forgot my kit in middle school and I was super scared about the prospect of doing PE in my underpants I ran to a nearby telephone box and called home. There was no answer!!! I inevitably did pe that day in my underpants and barefoot.

@Ross19 My mum used to leave for work by 9.30am, so if I didn't call her by then I was basically stuffed. I remember realising in the morning that I had no kit for PE in the afternoon, and suffering all through the day with the terrible realisation that I was going to have to participate in my knickers 😥
QuietSophie · 26-30, F
@GkB01 But I was always in a rush, with more interesting stuff to do . . . 😔
GkB01 · 51-55, M
@QuietSophie I think you enjoyed PE in bare feet🙂
QuietSophie · 26-30, F
@GkB01 Bare feet for PE are fine, pants and vest just a bit too chilly 😬
