When I was around five or six and I didn't know how babies were made I used to believe that babies were part of a sort of "package deal" that included getting married. You get married and boom! you've got a baby.
When I was like 8 I thought I understood how babies came about and how they looked similar to their parents. I knew after marraige came babies and that, to have kids that looked like the daddy too, there had to have been some transaction of something. Alas! The wedding kiss! Yes! when they have that special kiss at the wedding the mans spit gets in the ladies mouth. Yucky! And then the have a baby. But I thought "wait, what about those people have babies BEFORE they get married?" oh.. They musta had that special kiss before they got married. I thought I had it all figured out
when i was little i used to think that when the groom kisses the bride at the wedding was when a woman would get pregnant. i thought this because usually after i attended a wedding, the bride would always end up pregnant afterward....
When I was very young, I believed that women became pregnant just by getting married. It was very disturbing to me when I learned that my widowed great-aunt had a new boyfriend. I figured they would end up married, and something just didn't seem right about a 70-year-old woman having a baby.
As a child, I thought that by getting married, you would be able to have kids and if you weren't married, then you wouldn't be able to have kids.
My logic was this: Since you a man and a woman to make a baby, the only way for them to "connect" was by kissing. And since I knew that the bride & groom kissed at weddings, the saliava in the kiss would mingle and when the lady swallowed it, she would have a baby.
And in case you're wondering, no, I didn't know about "sex", then.
I used to believe that when the bride and groom kissed at the wedding, it was a special kiss and that's how the bride's body knew to become pregnant.
I used to believe that a woman got pregnant by taking a pill that was in her wedding ring, and then she would have as many babies as she was supposed to have. I suppose I was watching "Underdog" with his magic energy pill, and hearing about "birth control pills".
When I was four I thought that RIGHT when a man and a woman got married that the woman just became pregnant out of nowhere. I remember telling my grandma I would never get married.
When I was little I thought that a woman got pregnant when she kissed a man on her wedding day. I thought a seed got shot out of the man into the woman's stomach, where it grew into a baby.
This is actually chronicled in a story I drew as a 5 year old...
I thought when a girl turned 20 she automatically got married to a random guy, and getting married caused her to automatically get pregnant. In my picture book I drew them falling in love, then walking out of the church with her hand on a bulging belly. Wow, I was messed up.
When I was really little, I used to think that you autmoatically got pregnant when you got married.
I never wanted to get married because I didn't want kids. Thankfully, it was all explained to be around the age of 7 or 8.
when I was a child I thought that when a man and a woman got married, when the man kissed his bride the woman became pregnant. That's how I thought babies were made.
When I was little, I thought that a husband and wife immediately went to have sex in a designated area (like a shower) in the same building they were married in on their wedding day.
I used to believe that pregnancy was caused by the kiss at a couples wedding.
I used to believe that when a couple kissed at their wedding, that was when the woman got pregnant.
When i was young, i thought that as soon as you were married, the woman would automatically get pregnant.
I thought to get pregnant that you had to have a wedding and get married to the man you wanted to get pregnant with...thus leading me to believe that my parents got married twice...
When I was younger, I used to think that getting married was how people get pregnant.
I used to believe that when the preist said "you may kiss the bride" it was how they got pregnant. As if the preist had said a special prayer that when sealed with a kiss God made the bride pregnant, and thus, i used to believe in god.
When I was about 4-6 years, I used to think that women got pregnant when they french kissed at their wedding, so I thought you automatically got pregnant if you got married!
