MEBuckner, that’s almost as good as my high school’s rule book that said that students may not wear clothes!
This was MY favorite part, from the CNN.com article:
“And now this story, from No Shit Sherlock High School…”
And my SECOND favorite part:
“Hey, I swear, Rita put a gun to my head and made me look at girls’ underwear!”
Although I loved the jokes some previous posters made, the actions of this woman were absolutely reprehensible. Under NO circumstances did she have the right to violate the privacy of students in such a way. It’s my opinion that any teacher who was a party to this in any way should be fired - no chance for a “resignation.”
As an aside, what the hell is wrong with the students? If a teacher even asked what kind of undergarments I’m wearing at school I would have contacted the administration and make sure disciplinary action was taken. It boggles the mind that they would passively allow their undies to be inspected.
Blargh.
That’s what my prom date told me.
School administrators can be really fucked up. The other day I heard about our new principal bitching at a girl for braiding another girl’s hair in the hall before school. The principle apparently said that braiding is not allowed in the halls and got even more pissed off when one of the girls asked where that rule was stated. Of course the principle just walked away instead of admitting she was wrong since it’s obvious that there is no such rule. I could start a nice long pit thread about this woman’s actions but not tonight.
If we let girls into dances with thongs on, then the terorists have already won.
I just have to say one thing:
In all the school dances I’ve been to, or even heard of, I’ve never seen any guy dressed in a toga.
This really is a violation of civil rights. You wanna search 'em for weapons? Fine. Use a metal detector. You wanna search 'em for drugs? Fine. Use a dog. Underwear? C’mon. . .
Tripler
I should’ve worn a toga. 
Perhaps it is a generational thing, but “execute” is not the word I would have used.
I think I went to the wrong damn high school…
I wondered that too. After thinking about it, I realized these are kids. They are taught from a young age to listen to and trust their teachers. They probably felt uncomfortable doing it, but didn’t realize at first just how wrong it was.
I don’t understand where teachers like this come from. I have many friends and family in education, and I am going to school for education, and no one I know would consider this appropriate.
SPOOFE, I believe you are on to something. Thong underwear reminds me of the sling that David used to slay Goliath. Such undergarments would also be easy enough to transform into garrottes.
It is clear that we are already overrun with weapon wearing women. As good, God-fearing men, we have a duty to hunt them down and confiscate those weapons. In all cases, though, we must eschew the use of violence and rely, instead, on our charm so that the women in question will willingly surrender those weapons.
Yes, “weapon wearing women” would be a good band name, or so I think–feel free to use it as you like.
I dunno if it’ll cover them, manny, but I don’t think that was really what you were after. 
And if they’re wearing thongs, you don’t even have to pull down their panties to give 'em a bare-bottom spanking. 
When I was at New Rochelle High School 1957-60, the gym teachers insisted that we wear jock straps. Every so often they’d go through the entire lined-up class and check to see if we were wearing underwear instead of an athletic protector. The guilty boys had to walk over to a spot in front of the class, take off their underpants, and hang them up on a hook.
This practice was acceptible back then, I’m sorry to say.
My old English teacher went to an all-girls Convent high school in Birmingham, England in the eighties. They were excused swimming lessons if they were menstruating. But in order to prove this, they had to let the nuns check. :eek:
The school district I attended always had something along the lines of “appropriate undergarments must be worn at all times” in the student handbook. I always said that if a teacher has any idea a student isn’t wearing underwear, there’s more than a dress code violation happening.
I second (or third or fourth) the “Was this woman smoking crack?” sentiments already expressed. I’d love to hear an explanation of how this happened.

And then…
The oral sex!!!

The best part of that story was where it said the girls had to partially undress to prove that they were wearing bras. Now, if you can’t tell whether a girl is wearing a bra or not without making her undress, then what fucking difference does it make?
A relative of mine plays high school baseball. His coach has taken it upon himself to decide that he will hit the boys on the team in the crotch to determine whether or not they’re wearing their cups to practice.
I thought that was a bit sick when I first heard about it, but this underwear thing is even worse.
actually, Bob, it would make ‘fucking difference’, since to many removal or not removal of the bra has a specific role in the fore play…
maybe they thought that was just one of the perks of the job?
She said she loved me like a brother and that’s great, cause she’s from Arkansas!
