I was 13 years old when I was told by my pal that condoms are "things" used to prevent having a baby after sex. I used to see women taking pills to avoid pregnancy on TV. Thereon, I mixed up my conclusions and started to believe that condoms are actually tablets used to avoid having a baby and thus come in different flavors - strawberry, chocolate, etc. LOL!
