For some reason until I was a teen I thought not every man had a penis. Some were lucky to have them and some just had hair there and nothing else. Now I'm thinking that the idea could be from censored R-rated movies.
A childhood belief about rude bits

others believed things like this
- When I was younger I thought MTV was an x-rated station because I thought M stood for Mature.— Aeris
- I used to believe that in old times the world was grey (black and white, i got the idea from old movies) — Bryce
- ‘Unadulterated’ meant that something wasn’t rated 18+ and was therefore safe for kids— Evie
- For some reason, I used to think that a 'condom' was a kind of hairstyle. No idea why.— SW
- I had my mom buy a box of lucky charms because I thought the little leprechaun would be inside. — Catherine
- when i was very little, i thought that all girls must do ballets, and that i was lucky who wasn`t forced to. — little miss from norway
