When I first learned about sperm being single cells I still did not understand what sex was, I suppose I wasn't paying attention in class. At any rate I understood that getting pregnant had to do with sperm getting to the egg. I thought sex was just a man and woman being in bed naked together but I thought that would be so embarrassing so I tried to come up with ways to circumvent the embarrassment. I decided a man could take a bath or shower and then the woman would come and use the bath/shower immediately afterwards if they wanted to have a baby.

I remember when I was young I saw my mom eating a birth control pill, but I didn't know what is it for at that time. So I asked her and she said if she didn't take it, then I would suddenly have a little brother or sister. I thought when woman reach the age where they can have babies, the babies will automatically grow inside their stomachs and can only be stopped if you eat the pills. And if you forgot, then the baby will develop and you'll be pregnant.
Well, I was half right, but I never thought man had anything to do with that...

When I was in the sixth grade my best friend's sister, who was a year younger than us, thought she would get pregnant if she sat on a toilet seat after a man had used the bathroom.

When I was about 4 I used to believe that when my parents said "Make a baby" I thought they were gonna make it with flour and eggs like a cake and cook it in the mums belly.

When I was about 8 yrs old, my cousins stayed the night at our house. Because all the other beds were full, two of my cousins and I would be in the hide-a-bed together. I was the oldest, and one of the younger cousins was a boy. After my parents went upstairs, I started to worry. Panicing, I ran after them. I was worried that I was going to get pregnant. I thought that when adults said "sleeping together" that they were being literal. I told them I thought that my cousins "tadpole thingys" would crawl across the bed and into me, causing me to have a baby. I can only imagine how hard it was for them to supress their laughter while giving a better explanation of the birds and the bees than they had previously given me. ("Tadpole thingys"-- really!!)

I used to believe that women could get pregnant from oral sex (as in a blowjob). A scoolfriend told me that some time in primary school. I actually believed that sperm could travel intact all the way through the woman's digestive system, then end up making a baby. I never thought of the idea people has sex not to make babies, but for fun...

My sexual education had a few details missing - when my parents gave me the "birds and the bees" talk, they completely left out the part about sexual intercourse. Therefore, I believed, until I was almost 16, that you could get a woman pregnant simply by sharing a bed with her. I subsequently deduced that the reason silk sheets were considered sexy, was because the sperm could travel on the slippery surface far easier.

when i was little i thought a man had a baby seed in his stomach and through sex the seed would jump through the mans belly button into the woman where it would grow

When I was little, I thought that women got pregnant by sleeping next to a man and that the sperm traveled through the belly button into the woman.

i used to think that babies were born at any time and without sex.and that the momma would just have babies...lol

???

i took a sex ed class and i guess the teacher didnt explain it very well. i thought the the sperm crawled out of the boy and into the girl. so i never sat near a boy because his sperm might crawl into me and make me pregnant.

When I was little, I saw "Look who's talking" on TV. Because it was edited, the only thing they showed for the sex scene was john touching kristie's knee. For the longest time after that I thought that if I touched a girl's knee, I would get her pregnant. Just goes to show you, you shouldn't censor movies on TV (and how dumb of a kid I was)

I believed that you could get pregnant from sitting on the toilet seat after a man used it. And that if you went to the bathroom after a man that hadn't flushed, and the water splashed you, you would be pregnant from it.

I used to believe that if an adult woman ate a bunch of food she would get pregnant. That always explained to me why they got so fat while they were pregnant.

when i was about five years old mom told me and my sister how babies were made. i replied "you and dad did that TWICE" with a discusted look on my face. (she has two children) she just replied "yes"
