For some reason my parents used the word “teeny” for boobs. I never heard anyone else use that word, so even though l knew what it referred to; l was convinced it was a bad word. So, l saw a movie where a girl was nicknamed Teeny and l thought it was terrible they named her that

I thought your parents CHOOSE if you're a boy or a girl when they have you (or at least the mother chose). I learned this was wrong when I asked my mom why she made me a boy instead of a girl.

I thought that masturbating was another word for pooping so whenever I’d hear the word ‘masturbate’ I imagined someone taking a dump

Church wasn't mandatory in my family, so I rarely went. I had a bible and thought "Titus" was pronounced "tit-us. I was trying to talk about Titus and my mother said, "You better not be saying tits!" I was ten and didn't know what a tit was. Now eleven years later I laugh at this!

When I was young, I used to believe that, all babies lived in a "contry" before they were born. When I had a brother, I was sad because I thought that all his friends had to said good bye to him... And when I learnt how we babies are made, I was very very sad too and I was crying... Since this moment, I don't believe that anymore !

I thought that when a woman got cravings when she was pregnant, then whatever she craved would become her offspring's favourite foods.

Conversely, I thought that if a woman was put off a specific food while pregnant, then that'd become the food the child didn't like.

I only realised this was not true when Mum told me she didn't like tomatoes while pregnant, even though I like tomatoes.

When I discovered a pearlescent green camo… adult plaything, I thought it was some kind of clown’s tool or a massager. I knew not to use it, though, and put it away.

I used to be confused about why a game of hugging and kissing is meant to be a bad secret that you had to tell and get help for, before knowing all the obvious sex stuff now.
