School Knickers
When I was a teenager, there were two private girls' schools near to where I lived. And at one they had to wear navy blue knickers, and at the other they had to wear bottle green knickers. And this absolutely fascinated me, and it still does. At my school they mainly wore plain white ones. I wonder if there are any schools left that still have rules regarding what sort of underwear their girls should wear? I think that these days the girls would strongly object if the teachers took an interest in their knickers, and so would the parents.

I suppose what fascinated me was the idea that black knickers were "okay" to show in PE, mostly under a gym skirt, but not really any other colours. Unless people wanted to be embarrassed and gossiped about.
It seemed "normal" at the time but then after a few years they were allowed to wear shorts, after that on the few occasions when it came up in conversation everyone thought it seemed a bit weird.
