From the time I first heard about condoms to today after I found out the truth, I used to think that condoms where like glycerin supposatories (Those little lubricated things people stick up their butt when they are constipated, haha) that men stuck up their "thing". Today I learned that they are actually a plastic thing men slide over the thing.
