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

This only happened to me a couple of times. Most of my PE lessons were gymnastics or dance and I wore a leotard with bare feet. In high school for other sports it was tee shirts and gym knickers or sometimes a netball skirt again mostly bare feet.

At primary school, we didn't have PE kit and boys did it in their pants, and girls in just our knickers! At secondary it was single sex and we had gym knickers and vests for indoor PE, with bare feet, but if we forgot our kit we had to do it in our underwear.

@lcclinton4 It was knickers and bra for us if we forgot our kit

The same for us, unless you didn't have a bra. I remember several lessons running round the gym and climbing on the apparatus topless, wearing just my little knickers.

@lcclinton4 Aww poor girl, however I did the same as I’m somewhat flat chested. Wasn’t so bad as the classes were all girls.

@SW-User Yes I was too. It wasn't too bad if several of us were in just our knickers, but more than once I was the only one topless. The I felt really exposed and quite embarrassed. At least by the middle of year 9 I'd started wearing a training bra so could cover my chest, even if I was still in my knickers.

@lcclinton4 I know the feeling. 😔 was kind of embarrassing if I was the only girl. Even worse when we were outside.

@lcclinton4 That must have been frightfully embarrassing for you, but actually quite good clothing for doing gymnastics in 🤔

@GentleLucille Yes, it was embarrassing, particularly having to do it topless! But you're right, in many ways it was actually good kit for gymnastics - nothing to catch on apparatus and it was also quick and easy to get changed!

@lcclinton4 Yay, that's the girl 🤗 Bare legs and feet are great for climbing ropes and bars, even if you are in just your pants!

@GentleLucille Yes, bare legs and feet are definitely best. It was not wearing anything other than a little pair of knickers that was the problem!

@lcclinton4 Well, if you don't want everyone to see your knickers, you should have remembered your shorts . . that's what my gym teacher would have said anyway 😊

@GentleLucille She was right, really!

@lcclinton4 But the main thing is still being able to take part. I would actually rather run around the gym in just my knickers than have to sit out a fun lesson 🙂
