When I was little I used to think that all girls were born with a baby inside them, but it was really small (like the size of a nail) and it just grew bigger as you grew up till you got married and then it just came out of your tummy. on finding out how babies really came to be, i was devestated!

- I used to believe that little boys grew up to be girls and little girls grew up to be boys. — Darin
- i used to think that if girls were "flat" when they grew up...they would turn into a guy
