A childhood belief about reproduction

When i first got 'taught' about sex, it was by a very stupid man and an equally stupid book as his aid. The book was about the human body, and was designed for children, and in the part about reproduction, it had a picture of a metal box with a spring coming out of it(which was suppossed to represent the male reproductive parts) and another metal box with no spring (the womans parts) and arrows showing that the springy thing went into the other metal box or something. It was really dumb and thanks also to the person 'explaining' it to me, i was left thinking that sex was something these weird robots did for us, so we could have babies, but I had no idea how them having sex made us have kids.
