Until I was about 9 or so, I thought that to get pregnant, a man and woman had to live in the same house and be married. To account for teenage pregnancy, I thought that sometimes there was a mistake in the "process" or whatever. I also decided that I was never going to have kids of my own, until sex became less of a big deal in like 5th or 6th grade.
