My flat mate told me this one:
When he was 8/9 yrs old, people at school started to learn about sex and rude words. One boy had overheard the word frigid but somehow managed to mishear it and misunderstand it.
A story then went around school that people who had never kissed anyone were called "fridges". Some smart kid deduced that people who had kissed someone must then be called freezers!!
A childhood belief about sex
