When I was in year 7, in Sex Ed class, the teacher was discussing periods and how they work. When a classmate of mine rose his hand and asked "if a girl has her period, how does she go to the toilet?" Later when i asked him, he replied "isnt it the same hole?" and thought that the girl had to hold on until her period ended before she could go to the toilet again!
