Wait, this is supposedly 'new' ?

Fuck, back around 1995, our school system was half obsessed with looking at our junk.

We had a time limit of 4 minutes to not only walk from one class to the next, but also to piss and shit, within 4 minutes.....

I refused to participate in gym class because of that.

They were literally obsessed with limiting the timing of the evacuation of our bladders and bowels..

Yeah, when I was growing up, genital exams were required for a girl to play sports, travel, get certain types of jobs. There were many things I wanted to do that I didn't do because of that.

That loser in High School with the "FBI: Female Body Inspector" shirt can finally get his dream job

I'm so glad I see less of that for the most part. Even the old creepy guys eventually moved on and say, "come on dude, really?" with the overly crassness
