With all these nonces in the past I am beginning to feel left out.

Does those creepy uncles who tickle you a bit too much count?

not in rude places but just excessive.

[Maravilloso Marvo]

I must admit I have started to have a few moments where I have questioned why nobody ever touched me. Was I not good enough for the nonces? At least you got over tickled by your "uncle". It does seem as though I am in the minority in having a childhood with no abuse.

I had a teacher cuddle me 'to keep warm' rather too enthusiastically on a chair lift while on a school skiing trip. Oh, and there was the other one who used to 'check we'd showered properly', but other than those minor incidents, I grew up in the noncetastic 70s and 80s pretty much un-fiddled

This 'checking you'd showered properly'. Did it involve rolling and unrolling the foreskin rapidly?

Did Barry the nonce Bueno flick your private parts ?

No. We used to just have to stand naked briefly with our arms in the air and do a quick twirl for inspection while he eyed us hungrily. No touching was involved.

Similar scenario in my mid 80s educational voyage, a form teacher who took it upon himself to make sure we showered properly.

Also made himself liked by handing out free cigarettes and on the odd occasion booze.

Now this lad was a Christian Brother so quite clearly (in hindsight) a nonce but to the best of my knowledge he never touched a pupil’s ***** nor buggered them for kicks.

Yes. It's sort of hard to explain these days that you kind of knew certain chaps were that way inclined, but that most of them didn't feel as though they represented any particular threat.

'Blob' Shuttleworth, for example, used to touch a chap's bottom with the flat of his hand, given half a chance. I suppose that today it would be classed as sexual assault, but it didn't seem like an assault. It felt like Blob's little pecadillo which one avoided if at all possible. Nothing to get a chap excited, in therapy, or even arrested.

No. I can't say I ever felt threatened by any of this. Or even particularly uncomfortable. It's a considerable leap from someone touching your bottom or looking at you naked to buggering you - logistically, if nothing else.
