This isn’t super interesting but it’s haunted me since 2001. I hit puberty early, I got my periods when I was barely 9 years old. Something they don’t(or didn’t at the time) tell you about puberty is the vaginal discharge, there can be quite a bit of it during puberty, and occasionally I could feel it almost leaking out of my undies, so I’d have to readjust in my seat and wait to go to the bathroom. One day I was sitting in class, and I felt that familiar gush, and was squirming a bit, but eventually had to reach down to adjust my undies, I realise how conspicuous I looked, but I didn’t want to leave marks in anything. So, I’m adjusting, and suddenly my teacher comes over and YANKS my arm away and gives me the dirtiest look, she genuinely thought I was masturbating and yeah it probably looked like it lol, but I wasn’t, and I couldn’t say that, I can’t say “I wasn’t masturbating I was adjusting my undies because of the discharge” in front of my whole class. It was so god damn embarrassing, she really made a show of it without saying anything, she could have been discrete but nope she was insistent on shaming me. Worst part is I really liked that teacher, everyone did.
Sometimes when I think about it, I think about boys who have to deal with boners at school, like bruh I’m so sorry you have to deal with that shit, I know that kind of humiliation, it’s sucks.

Contact her now, even though it happened long ago. Just tell her your want to put the matter to rest, and tell her that you weren’t masturbating and you want her to know that, so you can get on with your life with peace of mind and a clear conscience.
Just be friendly and relaxed about it and say it’s not a big deal and you’re not holding a grudge, but you just want her to know the truth.
She’ll be taken by surprise and probably won’t know what to say, so might fumble for words, but that’s ok. It will sink in to her brain eventually.
You can maybe even ask her to please pass the message on to any other teachers or significant others she may have told about it. Ask her to undo the unintended hurt, through an innocent misunderstanding.
