In another case (the breast exposure incident – fourth entry) I thought the announced punishment was overly harsh but, as it turned out, it wasn’t.
Also, although I had few dealings with the Associate Headmaster, I trusted him to be fair.
If he thought the offence was more serious than I thought it, I could accept I was wrong. If anything, I felt more animosity towards the teacher who caught us but, credit where credit’s due, she reported what she saw completely honestly.
I never liked her because she was too straight-laced but I could respect her.
Did those two women resent being caned (specifically) or did they resent being punished – regardless of what form that punishment took? I suggest it was the latter.
I the idea the girls resent CP and prefer other punishments, couldn’t be further from the truth.
