When my sister and I were girls and saw femenine pads in my mom's drawer we were so excited to find small pampers for our dolls, we actually attempted to go out with our dolls wearing those "pampers", of course our mom didn't let us, so I asked her what it was and she told us that they were used to remove make up, so we believed her until 6th grade when we actually found out the truth.
