Before they gave us the sex ed talk in school - you remember, don't you? You went to a seperate room from the boys, they showed you a little movie, gave you free tampons and pads? Yea. That talk.
Anyways, before then, i thought that women got their periods in their breasts. I thought that the tv ads with women in towls and always grasping at their chest when they got out (you know, the dainty 'who me' look that one commercial had).. yea. i was a sheltered kid. A weird one too.
