body parts: general

As a result of misunderstanding the words to the first line of the song "Ball and the Jack" ("first you put your two knees close up tight"), I thought that there was a part of your body called a "toony," of which you had two.

well when i was a small girl of about 4 i used to wonder how women breastfed their children.i figured out that they had stacks of hay inside their boobs and that's how the milk was produced. i derived this theory from the fact that cows ate hay so that's what helped them to produce their milk.

When I was about four years old I used to believe that everyone could chose their sex and
I was disappointed when I discovered that I wasn’t “the one” who decided that I was borne as a girl.

My 4 year-old cousin thinks that any area of your head above your eyes(both internal and external) is your brain, so when she saw that I had a small scar on my forehead, she thought my brain had split open and she was very upset.

The very first time when I was old enough to use the toilet myself to do the "number 2", I looked at my hips and they were so huge that I thought there was a baby inside each of my hips!

my brother told me that if i ride my bike with my mouth open i will swallow my tounge.

after watching cartoons i was convinced that we all had outlines....i mean....if we didnt have outlines....what could possibly keep all our organs in right? ;) i searched for my outline...i was almost convinced that i found my outline :D

i used to believe that people were made of hotdogs. like if you got a finger or a limb cut off, there wouldn't be bones or veins or anything. just "meat".
but if you got your head cut off there would be a tube in the middle of the hotdog, like those cheese filled ones...

I used to believe that you only had a belly when u were older, and when i was 10 and i went swimming and my grandmother said look at your little belly i got worried and thought i was too young

I used to think that only girls had pink fingernails because they painted them. One night I was round a friend's house and I noticed my own nails, and was pretty freaked out, because they were pink. I think I went skittling to my mum about it.

When I was about 5 or 6, I assumed that since blood was red, it was strawberry flavored. My siblings and cousins must have thought I was crazy when I asked if I could lick their cuts.

i used to believe my mum had 3 feet because once there where 3 of her socks drying on the radiator and i couldnt work out that they were just odd socks so when i asked her why there were 3 she jokingly told me she had 3 feet! i believed it for years!

when i was little i used to think that your teeth had tiny hairs on them and if you didnt brush 'em food got stuck to 'em & it gave u cavities.one day i asked my dentist if when u get old your teeth hair fell out.he laughed histericaly & left the room to tell my mom

When i was real little, i used to believe that the only way to tell a boy from a girl was by their eyelashes. I thought only girls had eyelashes and boys didnt, because that was the way it was on cartoons.

I use to believe that hair wigs and press-on nails used to come from dead people. I would never wear any. Even up to today if i require long hair and fingernails I much prefer to grow my own.

I remember learning the names of body parts, and being confused about my mouth. I thought it was called my "face". I had probably heard about "smiling faces" or "a smile on your face", and assumed that the part that does the smiling, with the lips and teeth, was called the face.
