When I was like...I dunno, 10 or something, I believed that to use a tampon, you must put it in your urethra (that'd be the pee hole). Imagine my friends' surprise when during a sleep over birthday party us girls were all discussing periods, pads and tampons and I said I couldn't ever use a tampon...that I couldn't imagine putting it in my pee hole.
