I used to believe that when a woman had her period, the lining retreated into the uterus by puncturing it and going through the holes. I thought those holes were the cause of menstrual blood. I also thought that the umbilical cord was a kind of tube that shot food into the uterus, so I thought there would be sandwiches and things just lying around in there.
