A childhood belief about giving birth

At an early age - 4 - I knew babies came from inside the mother. How they got out was a puzzle. I finally decided moms must have a zipper in their sides for this.

Some years later, I realized that was silly, and concluded there was only one logical place of exit...the butt.

Not until I was about 13 or so did I learn the truth in a school hygiene class. I still think zippers would be easier ;)
