I was im a mall bathroom once there was no nampkins so i was looking all over for napkins (i was only 7) and i saw somthing that said napkins so i put a quarter im it and i rinsed my hands with tampons.....
Funny bone
I used to believe that what came out when you got your period was blue, because of the ads on tv where women would pour blue liquid onto a pad to show absorbancy. I was surprised and a bit disappointed to find out the truth during puberty.
when i first got my period at age 12, i told my younger (fifth grade) friend all about it. i told her about cramps and stuff, and how unpleasant they were. "juliet," she went," you are SUCH an idiot! u can stop it anytime u want by cutting ur finger!" I was like,"?" and she said,"yeah! u can't bleed in 2 places at once!"
she is such a moron. now i'm 14 and she's 11, about 2 be 12. i hope that when she gets hers i don't see bandaids all over her fingers.

When I was in 5th grade they school deicided they would teach us about what a period was. They only invited the girls which I thought was kind of odd but paid no attention to it. We watched a movie about it explaining that a period is when you bleed once a month and that you get it around your early teens. I don't know why, but I thought boys got it as well and when I came home that day I told my brother the information I had found out and told him soon he would bleed once a month. He was only 9 and when I told him this he screamed and ran to my mom. After that she explained only girls got periods and that was the end of that..

i used to believe that you would die if you got your period...because of all of the blood coming out.

When I was in the fourth grade my best friend spent the night. My older brother, being the comiedian he is, asked my friend if she had Maxi Accident Insurance. I knew he was kidding and started to laugh. During my time of laughter she had walked up to my mom and asked her what Maxi Accident Insurance was. My mom looked at her confused. I grabbed her and told my mom never mind. I had to explain to her that it was just a joke!

My cousin once told me that you bleed out of your armpits when you had your period and you had to put a big maxipad to keep the blood from leaking. then when i really started my mom told me it wasnt true.

My mother used to call "periods" "imperial." As a kid, whenever I saw the TV commercial on Imperial Magargine -- yeew, you got the picture.
Missed that bullet
I always thought that women had to keep the plastic part on when inserting a tampon...
Someone on here said that wasn't the case...
How interesting lol...
I'd rather not tell lol!
I used to believe that having your period was no big deal. I had seen all the ads on tv for pads and tampons and thought that they were just being dramatic. I decided that when I got my period I would just ignore it and not go crazy with pads and stuff like those silly women in the ads. When I was 11 I was told by my friends what a period really was. I was horrified to learn that it could last a week and that every women HAD to have pads or tampons. But thank goodness I learned that in time.
when i was little i found my mom's pads in her bathroom and i thought they were diapers...I thought how cool!! and then one day when we were about to go on a long ride in the car i thought what a perfect oppurtunity to ask my mom to use one. when i asked her she was like what the heck are you talking about? to this day i never snoop around in her bathroom
i//was//stupid//
I used to believe, when I found out, that once a woman started menstruating they would menstuate each and every day for the rest of their lives and never stop. I was worried for ages about it, and the prospect that I once I begun, I would never be able to go swimming again.

One time, when my mom's "friend" was visiting, she had asked me to get her a pad. I gave her one, then later that day she asked me for another one and I said to her,"Gimme the other one back and I 'll give you another one!" I smirked at her, but i look back on that day and wonder how it could have been me that said that. My mom still occasionally reminds me of that day!
Confuzzled Little Kid!
when i was 11 i havent had my period yet but one time when i was in the bathroom with my cousin . i saw there was alot of blood in the pad . i asked what that was and she told me when i grow up i'll understand . after that i thought my cousin had cut her self ( down there for it to bleed and i didnt know why women would do such a thing ) . eventually i learn it "a women thing" . i didnt has tocut my self to have periods. lol

When i was young, i usedto believe that periods were a sign that you are officially in the adam and eve family, i didnt think they were there so u could make more family...silly me.
this girl.
One day on the bus my friend was looking in my purse and found a wallet and she wanted to look inside. Well then she did and found my pads. My friend is a year older than me. She was like I am older than you and i still didnt get my period yet. So then the next day on the bus i was looking in her purse and i saw some pads in her purse. The she was like I just go my period. I was like how do you know and she was like because i just had a cramp. Then she lifts up her shirt half way and shows me that she put her pad on her stomach. lol

When I was around 4 or 5 I had a babysitter after preschool. Well one day, I went into her bathroom and found some tampons ( this was when they were in cardboard still). At first I started thinking that it was a prize and she had hidden them around the house. So, I went and looked in the cupboard beneath the sink, and there were so many. I toke them out to her and said ' I found them all! But, you might want to think about changing the cotton candy flavor inside. I think it went bad." I had eaten the cotton in the tampon and thought it was cotton candy. Now when I look back, I am so embrassed, and I still see her sometimes too!
omg why did i have to be a dumb kid ].[
My (male) friend believed until high school that a girl's period lasted about half an hour, although you wouldn't know wxactly when it would come, so you might have to wear a tampon for a day or two.
I also had a boyfriend in college who assumed girls changed their tampons daily, as one changes one's underwear.
