My grandma once told me never to touch my belly button, because if I did, my stomach would explode. It gave me a vision of my stomach ripping apart and gallons of blood gushing out. Of course, I didn't really even believe that what she said was true at the time (I had touched my belly button many times before) but it somehow scarred me, and to this day I can't stand to have anyone or anything touch my belly button.

When I was 6 or so, I asked my mommy what belly buttons were for. She told me that it was the tube that connected me to her before I was born. I spent years trying to figure out, as a topological puzzle, how I could be inside her then come out of her, and remain connected belly button to belly button.

I was told as a child that if I didn't clean out my bellybutton well enough, that potatoes would grow in it... It's a shame they never did, that could have made me a bit more pocket money...

My girlfreinds Mum told her that if she played with her belly button her insides would fall out.

She still won't let me near it...

I was led to believe by my hairy chinned granny, that if I picked the fluff out of my belly button my @rse would fall off!?!

I used to believe your belly button was a knot that held you together - my parents had wierd anatomical views

When I was three my parents took me to a petting zoo for a treat. I went to pet a billy goat who, for some unremembered reason, rammed his head into me. I thought I'd been butted by his horns so I pulled up my t-shirt to see if I'd been cut. Lo and behold I did have a small hole in my tummy. Yes folks, it was my belly button but I didn't know this so for years I believed it was due to being headbutted by a goat.
