Series: The Hampton Rhodes Interviews 4

HAMPTON RHODES ACADEMY
Mr. Taylor's Interview

On the second day of my follow-up visit at Hampton Rhodes I was fortunate to have an interview session with one of the three male faculty members. Mr. Randall Taylor teaches sixth and seventh grade math and science. He is also the head wrestling coach.

RB: Hello Mr. Taylor, thank you for taking the time to talk with me.

TAYLOR: Pleasure.

RB: You’ve been a founding member of the faculty here at Hampton Rhodes. Were you aware of the unique methodology the school would adopt at the time you joined the faculty? In particular, all the nudity the boys are exposed to.

TAYLOR: Actually, yes, I was. I think to a large extent, I was one who pushed very hard for the program to work the way it is. As a male, I think it is ridiculous for boys to be allowed any privacy whatsoever. They also have to get used to being exposed in front of other males. You should see how they react in the other schools when they find out they have to use a communal shower after P.E. and athletic practice. Used to be it was a matter of course to shower together. Hell, I remember having to swim nude at a YMCA pool. You know moms and sisters and younger brothers and the public at large could come in and watch us swim. Moms and sisters were allowed to come in the boys’ locker room too. There was no privacy. You know now that I think about it the boys need to be touched and handled all over their bodies. This “private parts” stuff applies to the girls not the boys. Boys shouldn’t have any private parts as far as viewing and general touching. Now, don’t get me wrong, I don’t think anyone should be fucking them. But, touching them, stimulating them, is not going to hurt them at all. Where the girls should be respected and be accorded a great deal of modesty, boys should have absolutely none until they are old enough to make those decisions for themselves.

RB: What makes you feel so certain that is a good idea—the nudity and touching?

TAYLOR: Well, there are two psychological factors and a couple of physical factors that play a role in this. First, we know that boys form social networks based on physical prowess. In other words, they tend to set a pecking order or the order of respect, if you will, based on who is more physically powerful. Who can hurt or overpower whom. So, I know punishment when setting authority channels must be swift and physical or they won’t get it. What better way to impress them than a heavy handed strap on their bare backsides? Making them run around naked or near naked sure makes this easier to take care of. The other factor is to get rid of false modesty. They need to realize their bodies are nothing to hide or be ashamed of—thus the nudity.

RB: Did you have to be “on display” while you were growing up?

TAYLOR: No, actually I was quite guarded about my body as a kid. But, my parents made me strip naked at home and parade around the house that way in front of my sister until I hit puberty. I had to swim nude at a lot of places. I, like most men my age, had to share a common shower at P.E. and during athletic events. I had to swim nude semi-publicly at the Y and Boy Scout camp and at whatever friends’ pools they took me to until I was 14 years old.

I vividly remember going to the Marlessi’s pool when I was eleven up until I was about thirteen. Mrs. Marlessi worked with my mother and our families got together for cookouts. Anyway, the Marlessis’ had two daughters. Both were a year or two younger than me. My mother made me strip nude for swimming. She made me stay that way, in front of the Marlessi girls the whole time we were there. Sometimes it would be a whole day. The girls had their bathing suits on the whole time. God, was I embarrassed. Those girls and their mother took every opportunity to feel my penis and testicles. I mean they were all over me. Mom just said, “It’s okay they’re just curious. Let them touch whatever they want. They’re learning about boys.” What made it worse was my sister, who was often allowed to see and touch my stuff at home, was there coaching them.

Dad just sat there the whole time nursing beers with Mr. Marlessi. Didn’t say a word. In fact, the two of them would laugh when the girls pulled on my erect penis. They’d holler things like, “You’ll like that when you get a little older, if you can get it”, and laugh.

I just think the boys will get over that kind of shyness with our program. When they find, themselves being seen and fondled at the whim of the public, they tend to find their bodies more acceptable and it takes away the feeling of guilt and taboo society has placed on such things. Now that said, I don’t think I’d condone sexual penetration by some adult on one of the boys, nor would I approve of oral stimulation by an older member of the community on one of the boys.

RB: What about between the boys themselves?

TAYLOR: Oh sure, they can explore among themselves. It’s normal behavior for young boys. I encourage them to feel each other if they wish. I also know that at times they do orally stimulate each other. The junior matrons sometimes make them do those kinds of things just to embarrass and humiliate them. I think there have been some cases of the junior matrons making them penetrate each other as well. I don’t approve of that, but, out of sight out of mind. The boys might be uncomfortable with doing that and some tears might be shed, but all in all the girls like to see it and the boys soon become less humiliated with it. It’s kids’ play.

RB: And, you think that’s okay. I mean for two of the boys to be forced to engage in such behavior? I mean regardless of being forced to do it or even consensually engaging in anal sexual activities.

TAYLOR: No, like I said I don’t approve of oral or anal activities. On the other hand, when we inhibit them from exploring their sexuality, we aren’t really doing them any favors, now, are we? I mean what’s the difference? Is doing such things behind the garage or us saying to them, if you can do it in the garage it’s okay enough to do out in the open healthier? Our kids don’t hide to explore each other. And, trust me, a little what I call comparative sex is going to happen between boys. It will occur somewhere, sometime. It’s just a part of their growing up.

RB: But the behind the garage stuff, as you put it, is between two or more boys who would be consenting so to speak. It’s not being forced on them. You don’t see the difference?

TAYLOR: Yeah, but the boys behind the barn are hiding because they feel what they are doing is wrong. My point is that it isn’t. The more sinister we make it, the more “wrong” that we make it, the more intriguing it will become for them. You know the “I wonder what’s so wrong about this, let’s find out” mentality. Sometimes we need to teach them it’s okay by condoning it being done in public. In a way, it just frees them from the confines of unhealthy social taboos on their developing behavior. Secondarily, it serves to be informative for the girls. I mean, they get to work through their curiosity about male bodies and functions by actually touching and seeing the parts and making the boys do things they’ve always wondered about. A little female domination isn’t such a bad thing. At least in my mind it isn’t.

RB: Let’s talk about the classroom. Are the boys naked in your classroom?

TAYLOR: Well, we have a boy going to be tagged tomorrow and he will have to be nude from the waist down during the tagged period. He’s twelve and has been a bully to the younger kids so tagging was ordered for him.

RB: Yes I’ve heard of tagging. I’d like to watch that.

TAYLOR: Well, they’re going to do it publicly in the auditorium tomorrow morning. I think you’d be quite interested. I mean the kid is already scared to death. And, he should be. He’s twelve and has been picking on the kids as young as six or seven. He punched them and shoved them down. He took advantage of them and deserves to be humiliated for it.

RB: None of the other boys are naked in your classes.

TAYLOR: No they wear the shorts, but their penises and testicles are visible when their legs are spread. You know the inseams on those shorts is quite revealing. They are, of course, disciplined while completely nude. And, I use the strap liberally as do my junior matrons. They have to be completely nude when they are strapped. Should a junior matron wish access to their penises or testicles, the boys have to follow the matron’s orders which would often mean removing all of their clothing. They are nude for all P.E. classes as are the other boys. They wrestle nude. I like to say it gives them an extra handle or two to get a grip on, if you know what I mean.

RB: So you encourage them to grab each other?

TAYLOR: Let’s just say, I don’t discourage them. I mean they grab each other’s packages to move each other and they sometimes cram a finger up their opponent’s anus to gain leverage and I don’t fault them.

RB: Doesn’t that hurt them?

TAYLOR: Yes it does. But it toughens them up.

RB: Let’s talk a little bit about the strap you use. How often do you find it necessary to apply the strap?

TAYLOR: Oh once or twice a day for the fifteen boys in each of my classes would be about right. If they are late or disrespectful toward me or Jenny or Stephanie, if they defy me or Jenny or Stephanie, they get the strap. When I use it, I really stripe them too. I believe if the punishment is harsh enough they’ll think twice about the behavior. Now, after a good whipping I make them stay naked for a few hours so everyone can see what happens to boys who are problems.

RB: Do Jenny or Stephanie, I assume they are the junior matrons in your classes, do they ever strap the boys?

TAYLOR: Yes. If the offense is against their authority, they strap them, but I follow up as well. If there aren’t stripes on the boys after they do it, I make sure the marks are there after the punishment. There should be some welts that will last a day or two or the job hasn’t been done right.

RB: With all this stuff we’ve talked about, you don’t have parents complaining?

TAYLOR: Not that I know of. If anything there have been complaints that I haven’t been firm enough.

RB: What about the fondling and all?

TAYLOR: Why do you think parents would send their boys to a school with a commitment to publicly exposing their kids? That is actually a big selling point. I think that’s a bigger draw than the strict and physical discipline. Actually, the submission to the nudity really offsets the need for a lot of the discipline. It sends the message of submission from the get go.

RB: Are the boys nude during wrestling matches with other schools?

TAYLOR: No. That would give an unfair advantage to the opponents. As I said before, too many additional handles to gain leverage. But, if I had my way both teams would be naked during matches. Sure does make them more interesting.

RB: Do you feel comfortable enough to touch the boys more sensitive areas yourself?

TAYLOR: Oh, heck yeah. I often rub their penises and scrotums for reinforcement. You know the playful swat on the ass reinforcer, the whole thing. I think we’ve all been indoctrinated into the ‘Oh, it’s wrong to touch them where their bathing suits cover.’ Kind of funny, here their bathing suits cover nothing, huh? (He chuckles at the thought of what his own cleverness.) Sometimes when I find myself in the counseling role with the boys, I’ll hold them in my lap and fondle them while listening to their problems. You’d think if it was so offensive to the child, they’d protect their genitals, but they don’t. They spread those legs wide apart allowing full access. In fact, as an experiment, I asked three different boys on separate occasions, would you rather I didn’t touch you there while we talk, and to a kid they all said, “No keep doing that, it feels good”, or something of that nature.

RB: Not one of them showed discomfort?

TAYLOR: Not one. They like to be ‘touched’ there. They like those little raging hard ons. And, truth be told, they are kind of fun to play with when they’re hard like that. Not to mention, how relaxing it is to cuddle with the little guys.

RB: You know in some circles you’d be thought of as a pervert.

TAYLOR: And that is precisely why I think our kids have the hang ups they have, because the adults have such big hang-ups. Let’s face it I wasn’t fucking them, I was fondling them. There’s a difference.

RB: I’m just surprised to hear a ‘man’s man’ saying such things. I mean the mothers I’ve talked with have no problem massaging their boys’ genitals, but they’re mothers and that’s a little more understandable. I’m not sure the fathers would agree with you.

TAYLOR: Well, ask them. Most of them would like to, but are afraid of what might be said of them for doing it. We need to get over this social taboo against relaxing our little boys. Anyway, Hampton Rhodes has opened that door. Let the discussion begin.

RB: I guess I’m old-fashioned. It does make me a little uncomfortable.

TAYLOR: Wait a minute. Aren’t you the guy who copped a feel of the Andrews kid during the physical exams? You know played with a nine year old’s boner?

RB: Well, I did feel his penis, but under parental control if you want to call it that.

TAYLOR: What the hell is the difference? You felt it and the Andrews said you looked comfortable doing it.

RB: I guess you’re right. It wasn’t a drive. It was a way to calm both of us.

TAYLOR: I don’t think I called it a drive for me either, but the fact remains it isn’t repulsive either. Would I sleep with a kid? No. But, I don’t mind rubbing a penis or scrotum if it helps a kid feel calmer. I mean I’m not opposed to back or foot rubs either. So why are the penis and testicles so off limits?

RB: Well, is there no pleasure to you in doing that?

TAYLOR: I get pleasure out of seeing the kids having some pleasure. On the other hand, I also get some pleasure out of the snap of the strap as it hits their bare asses too. I do like seeing a backside properly striped, a red face streaked with tears and a runny nose, when it’s called for. It’s like being an artist in a way. Let me ask you this, would you feel the same way if Mary (Gentry, the P.E. teacher) was rubbing their package as you would me?

RB: I must admit, I’d find Ms. Gentry doing it a little less difficult.

TAYLOR: Is that because she’s of the opposite sex in general or is it because when women do it it’s more a mothering thing? I mean is it sexual or is it mothering?

RB: I never thought of it that way. I guess it could be either. I guess you’d have to have a better handle on the motive before you could make that call.

TAYLOR: But, because I’m a male it’s different. It has to be sexually motivated?

RB: Interesting point. I must admit I’m always finding new ways to look at things at this school.

TAYLOR: Ask Mary if she doesn’t like to stroke their little balls and wankers. I know for a fact she likes it because she’s told me so. She isn’t looking at having them engage her in intercourse. She’s just pleasured by giving the boys pleasure. She also is pleasured in whipping their asses. And, I must say she’s pretty good at the latter. I’ve seen her do it.

Notes from the Tagging Session

The next day, out of morbid curiosity, I went to the tagging. Jeremy Train, a trim blond twelve year old of average build, was on stage completely naked, standing with his hands behind his head, legs spread, and facing the audience. He sure didn’t look very threatening. His hairless penis and testicles were completely exposed and he was crying. His penis was sticking out hard and straight as he stood there awaiting his punishment. The other boys were in awe watching as the nurse set the implements on a tray next to an examination table.

As I looked around the room, there were the short-short clad boys pointing and commenting. Most likely about the bully getting what was coming. There were the completely nude second graders, totally free of any self-consciousness, giggling as they chatted with each other while they waited for the soon to come call to order. Teachers, arms folded stood by their students discussing their weekends or other non-task oriented things with each other. Overall there was a buzz of excitement apparently more due to the time out of class than for the tagging session to come. I attribute that to the fact this was the first and none of the boys, nor matrons or adults present had any idea what to expect. After today, they would.

Jeremy’s mother and father were sitting on stage next to the table with some very committed expressions on their faces. It was as if they were saying, “Good enough. He’s been asking for this for a long time.”

Dr. Holmes stepped up on stage and held up an electric pink plastic tag which was a little smaller than the average luggage tag. “This tag identifies Jeremy as a bully. It says, ‘This boy has been found guilty of bullying and is being punished. If found to be antagonizing toward any other child he is to be soundly whipped with a cane or strap and proper notification is to be provided to the school.’ Turning toward the still crying boy, she said, “Jeremy, this tag will be applied to your scrotum and will be worn for six months. You may not wear any clothing below the waist except for shoes when needed, at anytime during the school day. This will include during any field trips or other activities at the school. The boys, especially the younger ones, may tug on your penis as they see fit during the day. You will follow the directions of the teachers, junior matrons, and any other boy, if you’re told to do so, during the tag period. You know what will happen if you hurt or threaten any other child, don’t you Jeremy? You will have an additional six months of being exposed with the tag. Any questions?”

The boys sniffled and his shaky voice let out a “No Ma’am”.

“Then let’s get at it.”

The nurse ushered him to the table and positioned him on his back with his legs spread. I was asked to bring the cameras up on stage to get a more clear view of the operation. After doing so, the nurse pinched his scrotum and stretched it out. With a scalpel she made a vertical slice in the skin of the sack about three quarters of an inch long. Because there is no anesthetic used, Jeremy yelled out and tried to move his restrained legs. Cleaning the surprisingly little amount of blood from the incision she lifted the scrotum again and made another like incision paralleling the first about a half inch away. Jeremy thrashed violently but to no avail the restraints did their job. She then slid the plastic strap on the tag from one incision to the other behind the skin of the tight scrotum. The strap coupling was sealed by some kind of heating device and was now attached. She wiped the blood from the incisions and then unbuckled the restraints. Gently, she helped him sit up. His face was red with crying and the boy continued to sob. I’m sure it was comforting to the younger victims to see this antagonist in such a vulnerable state. The bright “electric” pink tag was quite noticeable as it hung from the boy’s scrotum. Dr. Holmes briefly fondled the boy’s balls and then held the now installed tag up for all to see.

“Children, I don’t want you pulling on Jeremy’s tag ever. We don’t want to tear his little sack here. You may pull on his penis as often as you wish, but let’s wait until next Monday to start that so his little sack here can heal. We don’t want to be bullies ourselves, do we?”

(Mr. Train stood up and asked to say a few words. He was granted that opportunity.)

“Boys and you girls too, Jeremy’s mother and I are so sorry for what he has done. He has had many chances to straighten up, but he didn’t take advantage of them. Now, I hope he sees what his behavior leads to. To support the school, his mother and I will be leaving him completely naked while he is at home, until the tag is removed. How long that will be is up to him. So, while you are out in public you might see him exposed to everyone and feel free to come up and give him a tug or two. He needs the humility. Again, we’re sorry our son has been such a problem to you.”

(The assembly was over. Jeremy was nursing some still bleeding incisions. Dr. Holmes asked if I would like to visit Miss Toliver’s second grade to observe the Big Buddies program. And, I was quite ready to see what that was all about. She walked me down the hallway and instructed me that the program was what they viewed as a pre-parenting program. The seventh grade boys each had an “adopted” little brother in the second grade. The sixth had the first grade and the fifth had the Kindergarten. She explained it was mostly a social time where the older boys interacted with their adopted sibling.)

RB: Well, what exactly do they do with the younger boys?

DR. HOLMES: Well they supervise them on the playground sometimes, sometimes they hold them in their laps and read to them, other times they have the responsibility of disciplining them. I mean it’s the whole package. Miss Toliver had mentioned it was a reading visit this time and I thought you’d like to see it. The little guys in the second grade are nude all the time, because of teachers’ choice, but the boys in kindergarten and first grade are made to strip for the session. The older boys hold them in their laps and stroke their little penises while they read to them.

RB: Whoa, isn’t that kind of like teaching perversion?

DR. HOLMES: Haven’t you learned anything here? It’s completely a desensitization process for the older boys. It is also a time to teach them how to raise boys without the usual hang up burdens we instilled in the past.

RB: I don’t know. I just think I’d be uncomfortable with that whole thing.

DR. HOLMES: Well, then you’d be extra uncomfortable if they try what they’ve been thinking about.

RB: What’s that?

DR. HOLMES: Having the older boys strip naked too. That way the little guys could explore their genitalia and anuses as well. You know kill the curiosity of what those parts do when they grow up.

RB: I don’t know how you get away with all this stuff. I mean five years ago, you’d all be in prison for that kind of thing.

DR. HOLMES: Probably. I’m sure glad society is coming to its senses especially about the role of boys in the developmental spectrum. Five years ago no one thought beating their little bare asses was a good idea either, but what we learned when we stopped sure did jolt us back on the right track. Our kids have fewer major behavioral issues than the old school, and that’s a fact.

(When we entered the room I again spotted Jeremy. It wasn’t hard, he was “tagged”. A completely naked seven year old was securely attached to him. The little boy’s legs were wrapped around Jeremy’s waist and his arms around his neck. It was apparent the little guy did enjoy and love Jeremy. I could see the gentleness and pride in the elder boy’s face. Perhaps there was a method to the madness.

What was also apparent though was Jeremy’s hard on. He was stiff as a board as he supported his younger charge by cupping the little boy’s buttocks—one side in each hand.)

DR. HOLMES: Boys please sit down with your little buddies and let’s start with some stroking to clam them down. Just spread their legs and gently stroke them to quiet them down.

(The boys complied almost immediately. There were fifteen sets of mentors and mentees seated on the floor. The older kids were holding their younger charges having them straddle their legs with their splayed penises and tiny ball sacks being massaged gently as they sat. Surprisingly, the classroom had an immediate quiet spell overtake it. Both Jeremy and many others were hard as rocks as they played with their charges little stiffies. Actually, all the second grade boys were sporting stiffies as their older buddies fondled them. It was kind of cute.)

MISS TOLIVER: I think the big buddies should send their little buddies to pick out a book for them to have read to them.

(With that one of the little boys let out an “oooooohhh”, and with an almost disgusted expression stood up.)

MISS TOLIVER: It’s okay Jeffrey. Just get a book and then you can come back and Josh will rub your penis again. Won’t you Josh?

(The seventh grader with an obvious tent in his extremely short, shorts comforted his charge while agreeing with the boy’s teacher.

Books selected, almost one by one, the little boys came back and threw one leg to the opposite side of each of the older boys’ laps. Then seated facing away from their mentors, many took one of their elder’s hands and placed it on their crotches. Many of the older boys literally had to open the books with one hand so as to keep the other engaged where the seven and eight year olds wanted them.)

MISS TOLIVER: I don’t know if you knew this, but the first and second grade boys are kept nude all the time. We don’t want to have to fool around with the shorts and shirts and things. It makes it easier for everyone.

RB: Yes, I saw that when I visited with Miss Armbrewster, but I thought it was only the second grade. I mean the only naked kids at Jeremy’s tagging were the second graders.

MISS TOLIVER: Isn’t she the greatest? Miss Armbrewster I mean. She has such control but she is also so loving. The boys really respect her. Nope, the second and now the first graders are nude all day. Truth is before I came here I was not really exposed to little penises and testicles. Oh sure, I baby sat and got my share of seeing and feeling those parts, but those were really young boys. I guess I was shy, but Miss Armbrewster coached me in stimulating the little guys and now I’m a lot more comfortable. The other thing was I’d never used a strap on a child’s backside. I used to think spanking was barbaric and taught them to hit when they got frustrated. Miss Armbrewster helped me learn the masculine art of striping their backsides with a belt for the sake of keeping things orderly. It sure has been an education for me these past few months.

RB: So you’re comfortable with this program--the nudity, the touching and the belting?

MISS TOLIVER: Oh yes. This is my third year of teaching. I came from a public school. I taught the third grade both years. I must say the boys here at Hampton are much easier to control. Besides the very successful calming methods and firm discipline, seeing those little peepees dancing around all day long is just the cutest thing. I don’t know if it’s making them stay naked, rubbing their little boy parts, or the belt, or for that matter all of the above, but these kids are well behaved and learning. There is a difference.

RB: Yes, it truly is a unique approach.

MISS TOLIVER: I mean look at this. The older boys are teaching the younger boys. The older boys are learning gentleness and love for someone other than themselves. You can’t get this at the public schools.

RB: (I just mumbled in response.) No, you can’t. No, you can’t.

(The End)
