My brother and I (yeah, I'm a girl) believed for the longest time that feminine pads were to be used as peel-able window-sticky decals, and that tampons were to be used to whipe your butt after taking a crap, in those hard to reach places. We thought it was the "fancy" way to clean your butt out instead of old school toilet paper...Boy did I learn when I got my first period where those things really go! haha...
