I went to a private religious school and they made a rule that there couldn’t be any PDA (public displays of affection) between opposite sexes. And they ruled that pretty well with an iron fist.

So we took that in the opposite direction, and I don’t think the administration ever saw so much guy on guy slapping of butts, “Hey bigais”, or pecks on the cheek in their lives.

bruh some of my friends weren't even allowed to talk to the opposite gender in their schools.

This is honestly one of the weirdest things I've heard in awhile. Seriously, are people not allowed to have opposite sex friends? Jesus.

eventually my friend's class had this rule after a parent complained about their daughter talking to a boy at 11pm. i mean india is a pretty conservative country if you exclude big cities.

School: not allowed to have opposite sex friends

Society: not allowed to have same sex relationships

Parents of millenials/gen z: why is everyone antisocial, not talking to girls, and not having kids?

Lol
