in my youth, i asked my mother where belly buttons came from. she said that when we are born we are cooked in an oven and they poke you to see if you are 'done'. you're belly button was the scar. she added we were all different colours because some people are cooked for longer.

When I was little my Mom told me that if I kept playing with my belly button my arms and legs would fall off. That's why they call it a belly button because it holds your body together.

I knew that the belly button was associated somehow with birth, so I thought that when you were going to give birth, your belly button opened up like the old CBS logo on TV - like an old camera lens! Then the baby would easily come out and the 'lens' would close up again.

When I was a pre-schooler, I was FASCINATED by my dad's belly button. I would always be tempted to poke my finger in there, but he used to warn me that there were TEETH in his belly button, and it would BITE me if I did it!

I used to play with my navel as a child, and my mom told me if I didn't stop rubbing my belly button it would burst, and I would fly around the room!! That sounded terrific so I wound up rubbing my belly button raw until a sore delveloped. I was very disappointed.

My father had my brother and me convinced that if we unbuttoned our bellybuttons, our legs would fall off...for years, whenever I washed my bellybutton, I was so afraid that I would accidentally release the mechanism that held my legs on. My brother spent hours actually TRYING to unbutton his bellybutton, and was very disappointed when it didn't work.

My Mom used to tell me that she could take a screwdriver and unscrew our belly buttons and our legs would fall off. But I always had a great sensitivity in my belly button and couldn't stand for it to be touched.
