When i was 10, i use to go at pharmacy near where i was living with my mom and sisters, near the casher, there was aller candys of differents colors, each time i was asking my mom to buy somes but she never wanted to and each time the sallers were laughing at me... Now i realized that it wasn't candy, it was condoms !

My older sister and I shared a room when we were young... one night she explained to me that there were actually people in Hollywood (apparently ONLY in Hollywood) that has sex for fun and not just when they wanted a baby! imagine... she went on to explain they managed this by wrapping the man's penis in Saran wrap and a rubber band. for a long time i thought only people in Hollywood had sex without a baby and when I was much older and learned of condoms I naturally thought that whole Hollywood-Saran wrap thing must have really caught on!

I use to think that condoms had to be used because whenever a man and a woman slept together they automatically had sex and couldn't stop it. Why else would you need them.. there's no reason to intentionally have sex if you don't want to become pregnant.

I once walked into my parents' bedroom (no, this isn't going where you think it is!) and saw that my mother had left a box on the bed, marked "Oral Contraceptives."

For a while, I became convinced that a woman could get pregnant by giving a man a blowjob, and she had to take oral contraceptives to prevent pregnancy.

My brother and I were watching TV (about 7 and 5 at the time) when a condom commercial came on.I remember my mom rushing from the kitchen to the living room to see if we had any questions. After a few minutes she asked us if we knew what a condom was. I said that it's something the boy puts on when he kisses a girl so they won't get sick. When she turned to my brother he said:"Don't worry mom! I'll wear it all over my body so I'll be safe even if the girl touches my hand!!!"

I thought that a condom was a person who had a penis at the front and a vagina at the back, and a man and a woman could have sex with the condom if they wanted to stay virgins...

when i was realy young, i used to think all of sex was deep kissing while nude, and that condoms went on the tongue of the man to prevent the woman from becoming pregnant -- i could never figure out why only men could wear condoms for the longest time.

I used to think that condoms were just "willy warmers" and that they were woollen like a tea cosy and used to prevent the penis from getting cold and falling off
