I stress that this is only second-hand information, but believe the reason for the change was not a mistrust of the head. Top juniors, for some girls, saw the onset of periods. With girl’s dresses, being thick as well as petticoats, and in those days thick school knickers, to make a punishment effective the bottom had to be exposed. or girls of his age he was regarded as “unpleasant” for all concerned so it was carried out on the hands. I think, if I hand-smacked a boy or girl of junior age before 1960 parents would complain that it was
not effective. I was only after his date, when a move against cp was started, that hand spanking became more acceptable, and not regarded as cp.
