A childhood belief about getting pregnant

When I was about five or six -- old enough to realize that pregnancy and genitals were somehow connected, but too young to have acquired any solid knowledge of the specifics -- I "figured out" that women became pregnant when a man and a woman peed in the same toilet without flushing in between. That's why public bathrooms are "men only" and "women only", but homes with one potty are where mommies and daddies live.
