One of my ex-boyfriends told me that when he was 5 years old he was under the impression that all Jews came from a country called Jew-Land. Seriously.
A childhood belief about places
others believed things like this
- I thought Jews were people who came from Jupiter.Anon
- I used to think the Black Country region in the UK was called that because everyone lived in darkness there.— K
- Until about age 9, I thought there was a country called "Operaland" where everyone sang instead of talking.Anon
- I used to think that
"The land of make believe"
was
"The land of baked beans."— Baked Bean! - i used to think that the term 'necking' referred to boyfriends and girlfriends who rubbed their necks togetherAnon
- I thought the England was EDGE-land but england was ENG-landAnon
