when i was about five (and way too young to fully understandthe cycles of a woman), i saw an advertisment on tv for pads, i asked my mom what they were for and she said that it is for when older women have accidents, this lead me to believe that as you get older, you have less control over your bladder, so for about three years this knowledge scared the hell out of me.
