I also have to say that maybe the scene in question might be of relevance to some other discussions here. I would point out that in 1961, Walt Disney and his company apparently saw absolutely nothing wrong with the underpants clad bottom of a 15 year old girl (Hayley’s age – the character was 13) being displayed all over the world for all to see. Apparently nor did Hayley’s parents, nor did millions of filmgoers as far as I can tell. It’s a very popular film and I haven’t often heard much controversy about the underwear being visible. So in that case, why should we be incredulous about the idea that a school teacher might have had any hesitation about exposing a girl in that way?
