when i was about five (and way too young to fully understandthe cycles of a woman), i saw an advertisment on tv for pads, i asked my mom what they were for and she said that it is for when older women have accidents, this lead me to believe that as you get older, you have less control over your bladder, so for about three years this knowledge scared the hell out of me.

When I was little, I used to believe that tampons were for putting between your breasts for some mysterious purpose. I think it was to absorb the milk so it wouldn't stain your shirt.

When I was little, about 7, I was rooting through my mom's purse while we were driving someplace, and I pulled out a tampon. Of course being 7 I didn't use them yet, or even know about them so I asked what they were and she told me that it was a bandaid... so the next week, my friend came over to my house and we were playing and we got cut, cause kids play rough, so we went up to my mom's room and grabbed 2 tampons and started trying to use them as bandaids, till my mom found us, and after she died laughing she drove my friend home and explained it all to me.

when i was 11, i used to beieve that if you wore a tampon u were NOT consider as a virgin
the stupid one
When I first heard about periods, I somehow misunderstood and thought that when you have your period, you pee out blood instead of pee. So after that I would always check the toilet for blood.

i used to believe that in order to put a tampon in you would have to push the piece of cotton out before you could push it up in you. After countless waisted tampons my mom finally told me how you were really supposed to do it. i felt like such an idiot!!!
ANON
I used to think that when you had a period you only bled when you peed and that you had to wear pads because the pressure made you dribble pee on yourself all the time.

My friend told me about a guy one time that asked her if she had got her period yet. When she replied that she got it every month, he said in surprise, "You mean you get it more than once?"
when i was little i used to always ask my mom what tampons were....she would never tell me she said something like "um...i dunno" and i would be like "oh ok" and one day i desided that i would figure out what they were so i went into the bathroom got some and started doing expeeraments.....like i wonder what would happen if i used them as hairpins XDDDDDD i was so stupid

When I was little, I thought pads were a fashion accesory. I didn't find out until Grade 4.
Fashionably Challenged
When I was in 3rd grade my friend (also in 3rd grade) Valerie told me that you could'nt were the "Stick" kind of tampons things until you had a baby, so there would be a hole for the thing. Then I went to my cousins house she's was 16 and I was looking for hand soap and I found a box of "The Stick" kind with my cousins name written on it I thought she was STUPID and had sex before she was married and then hid the baby in her room so then I went and turned her whole room upside down then she walked in and said "What the heck are you doing?" "Looking for your baby" I responded. She was SOOO confused.

not telling
When I was in about 3rd grade I still didnt know about periods so I always used to tink that the pads in my moms bathroom were things kinda like diapers, so when my mom had to go pee in public, shed just go in the pad. So one day I went to school with a pad in my underwear and during class I had to go pee. So I just went in my pants. Then, to my surprise the pee didnt soak into the pad to well, I ended up going home that day early because my pants were all wet. Once I found out wat pads were really used for I felt so embarassed and so stupid...

I used to think masterbation (i think I spelled that right) was the same thing as a period...so I used the word masterbate a few times instead of period, no one ever corrected me
I didn't find out I was wrong until i was 12...man was I embarassed because I said "I mastrabated last week." everyone made fun of me because of that.

im in 8th grade,and the boys in our school havnt been educated yet about the female body,just the male. so some of my male classmates were discussing tampons within earshot of me. one said "dont they go up there and suck up all the blood?" and another said "no,they explode and suck up the blood"...then they turned to me and asked me,and i yelled at them and stayed out of the naive conversation and thier akward explanations
When I was little and I saw my mom getting undressed I used to wonder why she had a piece of blue string out of her bottom.I used to offer to pull it out for her.
Silly Lily
When we were little my sister and I believed women put tampons up their butts to either prevent them from pooping or to catch the poo. I have no idea what caused this belief, but I remeber not questioning it. I totally believed it. Consequently, I thought that all women used tampons every day.

When I was young my girl scout troop went to this mother daughter breakfast at a country club. It was a nice place and me and alot of the girls were hanging around in the swanky bathroom. In the stalls there was a box that was marked napkin disposal, and I (along with the other girls) was under the impression that this was where we out our dirty table napkins, so we all put them in there. It happens
a few months ago i was babysitting a young girl. i had set my purse down and had gone off to make the dinner for a moment. when i came back she asked me "what are these?" and had taken out my sanitary napkins and was examining them closely. i didn't know what to do, and i didn't think it was right for me to give her the birds-and-bees talk without her parents consent, so i told her they were surprises. she took this to mean that they were wrapped gifts. after all, they were wrapped in pink paper! i have never seen a kid so dissappointed when i told her she couldn't open them.
