When I was about 5, my mother recieved these free wallets from a contraceptives company (she was a pregnancy councillor). After removing the leaflets, she decided to give one to me. I immediately searched the pockets and discovered a condom, which she confiscated. I badgered her about it until she revealed that it was a "balloon". I immediatley demanded it, and threw a tantrum when I was refused. My siblings still bring it up sometimes. God, the embaressment when I learned the truth . . .
