When I was very little my mother insisted that we asked for attention when we needed the toilet. For years I thought that what I was saying "I need a tension" and therefore thought that a poo was actually called "a tension".

This is disgusting, my apologies up front. I was told as a kid that to conserve rations whilst at war, soldiers would only ever wipe their bums with one piece of loo paper.

I was told that they'd tear a small hole in the centre of one piece, put their finger through the hole, wipe up all the mess with the finger and then wipe their finger with the remainder of the paper. I believed this well into my teens and shuddered at the thought of joining the army.

I had a really scientific explanation for why poop was brown when I was little... First of all, people eat lots of food at picnics, and picnics only take place on sunny days, and the sun makes your skin brown, so the color of poop was caused by the food rolling down the inside of your skin picking up your sun tan.

I once saw my sisters drinking and wetting doll nude. It had a small hole in its right cheek to wet it self. So naturally I thought all women had a small hole in their right cheek for peeing.

When I was little, I used to take off all my clothes and threw them as far away from the toilet as I could before i pooed. For some reason I believed that if I left my clothes on while taking a dump, they would become contaminated and stinky. To this day I still don't know what gave me that idea!

When I was little my grandmother used to refer to taking a dump as 'the miseries'. I misheard this and for ages thought 'Miziwiz' was another name for poo.

When I was VERY little...about three or four...I used to think that since white people made brown poo, black people must make white poo.

When I was very little, we had a friend from Germany visiting at my grandma's. I went into the bathroom once and someone had forgotten to flush. The water was red, and I didn't know about periods at the time, so I used my youthful logic to conclude that German people must pee red, and went on with my life without giving it a second thought.

I used to think that you "weed" and "pooed" out of the vagina... girls only had one hole (not even a urethra) and boys had 2 holes b/c they can't poop from their penis

I don't remember exactly how we even started talking about it, but I discovered my boyfriend at the time thought girls peed out the 'back'. I was his second girlfriend he'd been 'intimate' with, and he was 20 years old. couldn't believe it... I told him girls aren't some weird birdlike species

When I was about five, I used to think that if you went to the toilet whilst eating a sweet, it would come straight out the other end if you swallowed it!

When I was little, I thought it was harmful to eat while you were going to the bathroom.

I know it sounds mean but to help my toddler, who was terrified of monsters, potty train, my husband and I told him that monsters lived down the toilet hole. The "potty monster" ate poop and pee and if my son used the bathroom in his pants the monsters would come out to him. As long as he used the toilet to feed the monsters they would stay happy and in the toilet. He has been potty trained since he was 2 but now he always flushes even before wiping to make sure the monsters are feed in a hurry.

My husband believed that woman peed through their vaginas, and held onto this belief up into his 30's. When I asked him how he expected a woman to pee when she is on her period and using a tampon, he couldn't come up with an answer.

I used to believe that a little woman and her kids lived in your rectum.When you pooped she was making them go outside to play. Sometimes they wanted to go out and sometimes they didn't.

I used to hate to go poo. But my grandmother convinced me that if I didn't poo, it would come out of my mouth. Just like a fart can be reversed as a burp.
