Somewhere in the Midwest, two teens wrestle in Gym class in what people in my generation called a "Coed Class." Coeducational, meaning mixed boys and girls. The young man looks decidedly uncomfortable as he wrestles the young lady. I must admit, I wrote this story so I could repost the Twitter comments, which are epic.
