When my parents explained sex to me I was pretty young, around 7. I understood how the parts met but never understood the rest. Though young I was very scientific and just could not figure it out. Finally in the car with my mom at a red light, she noticed that I really looked like I had to pee. She asked me if I had to go and I shook my head yes.
She pulled off at a gas station and I refused to get out and go. Finally I told her that I did not want to pee because I would be killing my tadpoles. Upon further questioning she realized that I thought I had to pee in a girl to get my "tadpoles" to seek out her egg. The shear thought of flushing my "tadpoles" down the toilet when I peed horrified me. Today I have a bladder of steal, wonder why?
The best part of the story is that I had apparently relayed the tadpole "Theory" to my playmate Mark(son of my mom's best friend). For days he had a coke bottle on his window sill. He told his mother that he had a tadpole in it.This was nothing unusual so she took his word for it. The water in the bottle became cloudy and stunk up his whole room. This prompted his mother to find the bottle full of old pee :)
