This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

High school gym classes are usually separated by gender. That said, I think this is fake - pinnies/vests are not very expensive and can be reused for years.

That's US/EU standard. In many countries schools it's normal to not have luxuries like colored vest

You segregate by gender as well?

Definitely real, I did it in the 90s and hated it. You don't take your shirt off, you keep your arms in, but you raise the front behind your neck so it all bunches up at the top. I was chubby then and that was definitely a core memory of self-consciousness.
