I used to think that period blood was going to be blue because in the commercials in which they do an absorbency test comparing two different brands of sanitary napkins they use water with blue dye in it.
When I first got my period, my friend and I were talking about this new experience. We thought that you were fertile during your period, and only then. We wondered, "Why would anybody ever want to have sex? Wouldn't it be messy? What man would ever like that?"
When I was 12 I stayed over at my mates house. Her little brother was 7.
In the afternoon her mom came back from shopping, put all the groceries away, and left all the toiletry stuff in a plastic bag ready to put upstairs. My mates little brother rushed in from outside and had fallen off his bike. He had a big graze on his forehead.
his mom had popped around to see a neighbour, so when he asked where the plasters were, we told him to look in the plastic bag on the stairs.
He did look a prat with a sani pad stuck to his forehead as he went back outside to play with his mates......
classic comedy moment.....

When I was little and I heard about getting your period, I thought that once it started, it would never stop, you'd be bleeding constantly til menopause.

At age six, my mum made a bit of a mess of explaining the birds and the bees to me. I asked her if you could get periods anywhere and she said yes. Of course rather than thinking that you could get them in any place that you went, I thought you could get them in any part of the body. Every nose bleed or cut on my knee was a potential period for the next two years until sex ed put me straight!

When my younger brother was around 8 or 9 years old, he was curious and read the directions inside a box of tampons. For years he believed tampons were for cleaning out your butt because of the illustration on the directions.
My friend Theresa's mom told her that if you used a tampon, that you weren't a virgin anymore. She didn't believe me when I told her the truth and for all I know, she still doesn't.

When I was a child my sister told me that a period was a chocalate bar so I used to lokk for one whenever i went into a shop!
Before knowing what a sanitary pad does, my sister used to believe that they were used to skate arourd at home!! We used to catch her skating around the house with them.

My mother told me about menstruation when I was 7 or so. Mindful that this was the same woman who had previously sold me a bill of goods about Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny, I assumed that she was lying through her teeth.

I used to believe that when you had your period, urine came out (and not blood). then of course, i learned in sex-ed about the whole thing...it was kind of frightening.

at about age 9, a friend told me that each month - at the exact same time each month - women lay eggs which are then cleverly caught by Tampoons (cloths with a dip in the middle for the laid egg). I can vividly recall my horror and remained convinced of my imminant egg-layage for another 3 years.

A friend of mine thought that sanitary napkins were like adult diapers -- women would wear them if they didn't have time to stop working and use the bathroom.

I used to believe that tampons went up your butt because you have a hold there!

When I was little I used to believe that Tampon applicators were made so girls could stand up and wee like boys!!! I still think it's quite a good idea...

I don't think I knew about periods at this time but I used to think that ladies had to wear pads every day and change them every time they went to the washroom.

I used to believe that women always had milk coming from their breasts and when they had a baby it drunk the milk, but when women didn’t have a baby they had to put cotton wool in their bras to absorb the milk. I thought this was called ‘having a period’, and these periods lasted until a woman had another baby. And a woman always had to wear a bra to put the cotton wool in to absorb the milk.
My mum told me that if I was naughty and refused to do a poo she would put soap up my bum, and I thought that that would make me poo.
when i was like 2 my older sibling who now had a sex change from a man to a woman told me u put batteries in tampons to make them work need less to say when got to the age there were no batteiries
