Mainly boys but what a revelation for me when the first time I saw a Girl slippered!
It was all so matter of fact, not violent like back home but more measured and delivered without passion or feeling.
The first time I got it I was in a daze, I bent over as told for 2 stinging whacks given at what must have been full strength.
When I sat down it stung for a while and when I got home I found two slipper marks on my bottom that turned to slight bruises that went after a few days.
I must admit that when I saw girls get it I felt a twinge or two down below. we boys would all watch with interest, to say the least.
Unlike back home women teachers would be disciplined as well which added to the event.
