    In our school atm we do swimming and general PE

    The swimming aint so bad as none of us shower without shorts on and getting changed you just put a towel around you ....but as it is a public pool as well the old men come in when we're leaving and have no shame in front of "innocent" teenagers :P Leaving an awkward feeling in the room.

    When we're doing normal PE we just get changed .....there are showers but i doubt they've been used in about 30 years :D

    I never minded, showers would be a bit much, although if everyone was showering it would be ok I guess

    It is the same in my school. PE is compulsory unless you are injured in which case you still have to bring gear and ref a match or whatever. All the guys must shower. The girls have said that they don't have to and aren't checked. For first to third year, the teacher came in everyday and made sure you had showered. We all showered in boxers and you never wore white boxers because they went see-through. If you hadn't showered and were already dressed when they came in to check, they told you to go have a shower and everyone just did. If you didn't have a towel, you were told to borrow a towel off someone when they were finished. If you didn't have a change of underwear, there was a single shower upstairs that you had to use.

    Fourth year, it is pretty much the same story but they don't check in every week. Every second or third I would think. It is still the same story if you didn't shower. In general, I'd say none of us mind showering but if I forget a towel or spare jocks, I won't use someone else's or go upstairs. You avoid the teacher and wet your hair in the sink before leaving.

    I think it's because the first three letters backwards is 'man' and the last three is 'bull' :P

    we always had pe more or less first thing from first year through to third year, we didnt get it for lc though. anyway, only one guy ever had a problem getting changed in front of everyone. we were never offered the choice of showers though, but god i wish we were, stinking for the day, the more lynx you put on the more the two smells combined to form an unimaginable stench. It's kind of ok for me and lads who grew up doing it as when i was 16 and playing senior gaa it was assumed you'd shower after, i can understand why people may be nervous at first, but it wears off!

    The whole things never really been an issue for me, in fact I'd really like showers! People would just bring swimsuits or whatever I'd say, but then I know loads of people would be so uncomfortable in swimsuits in front of other people.

    I wouldn't mind it as much if our pe teacher didn't stand in the middle of the showers looking at everyone making sure they didn't spend too long in the shower.

    Had PE today, showered as you do but today the teacher was standing at the entrance to the showers holding everyones towels. It was better then usual I suppose, but I didnt like that he still had his usual creepy grin.
