My guy friend and I were hanging out one day at the school playground afterhours while our parents were in a PTA meeting. We wanted to be rebelious, and so we went against the school rule listed on the gate: "every one must wear shoes, no opened-toed shoes or sandles permitted", so we took off our sneakers and socks and showed each other our bare feet. We were convinced that this was sex. Why else would there be a school rule against it?

At about 10 years old, I understood the concept of 'gay' people. I'd heard the word 'homosexual', and knew what it meant. However, I'd never encountered the word 'heterosexual' and thought it was another word for 'lesbian'. In school once, we were told that some of us might be homosexual and others heterosexual. I raised my hand and said: 'So, we'll all like people of the same gender?'

I used to beleive sex was just kissing naked. So because of this I wonderd if you could get pregnant if you kept one sock on, or stood real far apart while kissing.

I thought parents had sex only one time, right after they got married. In fact, I pictured it happening in a stall of the restroom of the Mormon temple where the wedding had just taken place. I was shocked to learn both of the activity's frequency and its close physical proximity to my own bedroom.

When i was younger about 9 or 10 i use to think that when a mand and women had sex the penis would get stuck in the vagina leaving the man and women attached together...so the man and women would lay helplessy stuck to eachother until medical assistance came to take them apart! LOL

My dad has a t-shirt with lots of pairs of skeletons in different sex positions. He used to wear it a lot when we were little and he convinced us that the skeletons were dancing...

I think I was about 10 when I discovered masturbation. This was in the mid-80's, and AIDS was a very big epidemic. I remember being concerned that if I ejaculated, I could possibly give myself a disease such as AIDS.

When I was a child, I thought masturbation was a credit card. So my mother and I were checking out at a grocery store, and the cashier asked her for her credit card. I responded with "Yeah mom! Get out your masturbation card!".

I meant MasterCard. Heh...

For a long time, I didn't know that guys got erections, so I thought that during sex, their penis would still be pointing down. Because of that, I couldn't envision how people could have sex. I'd seen sex scenes in movies where the guy would be on top of the gal, but I came to the conclusion that people just did that for a little while before having sex, and then they'd get into a new position where they'd lie with their heads at opposite ends of the bed, and would both move their legs apart really far and scoot close enough so that they guy could get inside her. I thought it was this huge physical feat.

When I was 10 years old my labrador retriever impregnated my chihuahua. From that moment on I thought men's penises could get stuck inside women's vaginas.
p.s. they eventually unstuck and the puppies were adorable.

Fascinated and Mortified

When I was younger (about 3-4), I was going for an after dinner walk with my parents. I was complaining about walking and my dad was walking behind with me while my mom got mad and walked ahead. My dad says to me, "Go up there and tell your mom that she is being mean." and I came back with an, "But Dad, mom is always nice to you...she sucks your penis." They just stopped dead in their tracks, "WHAT?!" I replied with a, "It means drinking wine!"

When I was little I thought that little fairies would jump up on my parents bed making it squeak all the time.

When i was about 5 or 6 i told my mom that i knew what french kissing was, when she asked me what i thought it was i told her it was when a boy and a girl put their lips together and moved their heads around saying mmm mmm mmmm.....moaning of sorts....i guess i saw it on television.

I was once told by a friend that a dildo actually required pushing a large wooden stick through your rectum,and OUT your genitals!which would either kill you or require surgery.I was so stupid to believe him...i also thought just HOW horny do you have to be to do that...

I used to think that prostitutes cut off their body parts to sell them because my dad told me that they "were women who sold their bodies" and I couldn't figure that out.

Susan

When my mother and I had the sex talk (I was 9) she went into detail about how men produce sperm in their testicals and this comes out the penis. However she never said how it came out. Well I thought for a long time afterward that during sex the woman would have to squeeze the mans testicals for the sperm to come out if she wanted to get pregnant. Thank goodness for sex-ed, cleared that up before I hurt anyone.

Vickie

When i was like 9 i was watching Mad T.V. and there was this skit about masturbation and the guy was talking about a hot tub soo for like 2 years i thought that when you go in a hot tub by yourself that was masturbation

My 11 year old son came downstairs one morning and said he had "hormones" coming out of his body.I asked him what he meant and he explained..he had a wet dream but had just had some sex ed. and they were teaching about hormones..thus he put 2&2 together and this is what he had come up with.

I thought when you had sex you just rubbed your "parts" together.
Eiether that or the man had to pee in the womans vagina

I used to believe that a boy can squirt milk from his penis. I lived on a farm and it looked like my older brother was milking a cow when he stroked his penis. I was shocked when I saw what appeared to be milk actually squirt out.
