I’m 16 and I go to school near NYC. I got hit in the face with a wiffleball in gym class and went to get ice. We were playing ‘tournament style’ but I asked to sit out because my chin was throbbing. My male gym teacher replied with, “you’re beautiful” and wouldn’t let me sit out, despite my objections. After i finished another round, i complained to him that my face still hurt and physical beauty didn’t have any correlation to that fact. He just said, “well it’s true! you are” and wouldn’t let me sit out or hold the ice to my face as i played.
