This happened in the summer of 1964 just after I had turned 18. I was a well built boy with pale skin, blue eyes and jet black hair. Even though I went to a co-ed school, our PE lessons were segregated by sex. Our PE uniforms consisted of short black gym shorts, white trainers and white socks. We did not wear shirts.
We were sitting on the floor of our gym while our PE teacher Mr Robertson called out the roll. The school nurse Mrs Anderson walked in and whispered something to Mr Robertson, who looked directly at me. 'Daniel!' he called out. 'Mrs Anderson needs to see you.' I got up and walked to Mrs Anderson. She told me to follow her to her office. I asked her if I should get dressed but she waved her hand at me and told me to come as I was.
I felt slightly self conscious as I walked with her through the school dressed only in my gym shorts and trainers. When we got to her office, Mrs Anderson explained that all students were required to undergo a full physical before starting college. I hadn't heard about this before so I was a bit surprised. I guess nobody really talked about it. She then told me to take off my shoes and socks, and sit on the bed.
She began by checking my eyes, ears and throat. Then she started feeling around my neck. I realize now she was probably searching for lumps but she never explained anything to me as she proceeded. She then raised my arms one at a time and twisted them in funny ways before testing my resistance by holding my forearms and asking me to push against her as she pushed against me. She used a hammer to test my knee reflexes. I gave the expected knee jerks. 'Now let's check your blood pressure.' she said as she wrapped a cuff around my left arm. 'No problems here.' she said as she removed the cuff and wrote the result down.
She then told me to stand up and face the bed. I felt her fingers poke and prod different areas of my back. I was then told to turn around. She put on a stethoscope and listened to my heart rate, then wrote it down. She told me to do 30 squats to which I complied. When I was done, my heavy breathing was apparent. She once again listened to my heart and recorded it.
'Alright Daniel, now I'll need you to lie on the bed.' she said. I lay down staring at the ceiling as she began raising my leg one at a time and bending them in different ways. She told me to push against her as she pushed down. 'Strong fellow aren't you?' she said smiling. I smiled back proudly.
The next part of my exam was relaxed. I lay down as she pressed firmly on and around my nipples. Then she palpated my whole chest, in circular patterns outward. 'Raise your arms.' she directed. I locked my fingers behind my head exposing my slightly hairy armpits. She began palpating on and around my underarms. 'Hands back down and relax.' she said. She then began palpating my abdomen asking if I felt any pain. When she got to the waistband of my shorts, she undid the string. I began to panic. Our shorts were the kind that had underwear attached to them so if they came off, there would be nothing underneath. I was relieved when she only slipped her fingers slightly beneath the waistband. She began palpating just above my groin which resulted in my penis coming to life. She slipped a hand further down and placed her fingers between my scrotum and inner thigh. She did the same for the other side. I now had a noticeable bulge in my shorts.
