When I was about 7, I guess, I spilt some warm tea down myself. I was wiping it off and noticed a light brown mark on my leg on the inside of my knee. Well, it was tea coloured and I’d never noticed it before so I kept wiping it and for years afterwards I believed the tea had stained me! Now I know it’s a birthmark but it took years to figure out it wasn’t tea. It still think it’s funnier being a tea stain.

I used to think that African-American people ate lots of chocolate, which explained their skin color.

I didn't know a lot of black people as a kid, but somehow I got the impression they were composed, at least in some part by chocolate. When I was about 4, I turned a corner in the library and there was a tell black man. I blurted out with delight, "hi chocolate face!!!" My mother was mortified. The guy just laughed.

When i was in my early teens my friend and I always made fun of how white I was, so one day i was teasing her about a huge birthmark she has that streches along her right leg. She looked me straight in the eye and told me that that part of her was mexican thats why its like that. I about died laughing.

Once I learned about skin color, I couldn't believe that my mother wasn't white. I'm brown and I swore that my mother was white. Later on I learned that she was just "light skinned."

When on holiday one year I saw a black person on the beach and remarked to my mother "Look, they're black all over!"

Some how I'd thought they just had black hands and faces.

when I was about 3 my mom had to keep a very good eye on me in public. Because if I saw a black person (I'm white) I would try to lick them, I thought they were made of chocolate!! I can remember the horrified look on some young boys face when my mom practically had to drag me away from him with my tongue out as far as I could get it, screaming "I just want one lick mommy!!!"

I used to think that black people were dipped in chocolate when they were babies, Indians were dipped in cinnamon when they were babies, and white people were dipped in vanilla when they were babies. How I got that idea, I do not know!!!

When I was younger I didn't think black people got spots. I wanted to be black, I think believed this until I was about 12!

My Mum once told me that the ink in ball-point pens was poisonous, and that if I wrote on my skin, the poison would soak through the skin and kill me. I still believed it when I left university, and even today I never, ever, write phone numbers or reminders on the back of my hand (I'm 35). Old habits die hard...
