A childhood belief about periods

A few years ago my brother, who is 7 years younger than me and was about 10 at the time, found my tampons and came running in to ask me what they were. Here is how the conversation went:

My brother - Hey, what's a tampon?
Me - What do you think it is?
My brother - (sniggering) Female condoms

We've never let him live that one down
