The late sixties must have been a strange time for corporal punishment!
For the first time, young people were seeing the world in a different way and going against the established order of authority.
For a late sixties teenage girl, her dad the Headmaster at school, and the Policeman who strolled up and down her street were ‘The Man’.
For the first time, girls would have been saying things to their fathers like ‘Don’t you Man-handle me’ and ‘how dare you oppress me you fascist’!
