sex

i believed until i was about five that as people grew into adulthood they sometimes changed sex, their genitals either shrinking or growing into the opposite sex. i used to study my dad (naked) and mum (ditto) and it just seemed that it was something that was quite likely to happen........... weird! strangely though i didnt expect to change into a guy..... was quite sure i would always remain female - and i have!. lol

I was in 8th grade and my best friend STILL didn't fully understand the whole process of baby making. She thought that you could get pregnant just from kissing, because her mom and other family had said so in an attempt to keep her from fooling around with boys. I tried despretly to convince her that you could kiss a boy and be fine. I guess it worked, we're not friends so i can say this, she's kinda slutty now.

Not understanding that women could have children out of wed lock my brother once asked his Chinese friend who's mother had just had a baby but wasnt with the father "how much did you pay for your sister"

when i was a kid, one of the elders used to tell that i was born due to reproduction . I used to feel so bad. i used to see that elder guy in a bad sense. Actually i didn't know how was i born. I had some kind of feeling that i just came in this earth. Now when i remember those days i feel like laughing. Still we don't say to kids the actual reason abt. how they are in this world. We just say they are the gift of god. Later they gonna know theirself.

when i was little i had a childrens bible (you know, easy to read, censored, pictures.) Anyways, the children's bible refered to sex as "lying down with eachother". When i read about a woman being forced to "lie down" with a man, i'm all "That's not a punishment!". Then it said, "She soon gave birth to 14 children" I was worried cuz i used to lay next to my mom all the time!

I used to think that a guys "balls" were back-up toys. When a guy got bored, he'd take one of his balls out of his pants and start playing with it, like a bouncy ball. lol i was so stupid!

One time when i was about 9 or 10 i was at my friend's house, and somehow we got onto the topic of periods. My friend said, "My mom got hers the other day, and there were bloody towels in the sink." Then i said, "That's impossible. You stop getting your period after you have babies. Your perioad makes it so you can make babies, so once that's done, so is your period!" My friend believed me and went, "My mom must'va had a nosebleed or something."

When I was little I used to think my cousin could take his penis off when he wanted to. I thought he would have it off when at home and put it on to come to our house, or if we were going to his house he would put it on before we got there. He is a year older than I am.

When I found out about sex and pregnancy, I could never get myself to believe that my parents could have done such a sickening thing. I had seen my mom visit the hospital a lot of times before my sister was born so I decided that my mom had got injected with my dad's sperm to get pregnant! See, there was a better way of doing things rather than having disgusting sex!!

I come from India, where talking about sex is considered highly taboo. In my school, there was nothing called sex or health education. So when I moved to an American school in the 6th grade, I was shocked to hear the other kids (who were quite half-knowledgable) talking about periods and sex, which I had never heard of or even wondered about before. Being an only child, I didn't even have to face the question of where do babies come from. Tired of being teased by my peers, I went to the library and took out a book for kids, which showed the biological process of the sperm meeting the egg and the cycle of ovulation. I still didn't get the sex part, and thought that when things got hot between a couple, the sperm (which I assumed to be the tiniest-- as mentioned in the book-- little invisible dust particles) jumped from the man and into the woman's body to impregnate her!! I had no clue about the vaginal hole either!!

When I first saw a sanitary pad I thought it was used as a sponge to clean the bathroom, beacuse that's where I usualyy found them. Later I saw the packaging and thought that maybe they were adult diapers.

I used to believe…

When I was a kid all I had heard about sex was that it hurt, so i thought that the guys penis had a stinger on the end of it, and that he would run around stinging you with it untill you were pregnant... I was very scared of every ever having sex for many years after that.

When I was about 11 years old I was asked a few questions as part of a sex survey. I told them I have had oral sex (as at the time, I thought oral sex was kissing).

I used to believe…

When my sister was younger, she couldn't pronounce words very well. Me, my mom, and her were playing trivial pursuit when she my sister was about 10. Her job (cause she didn't like playing) was to read all the answers to me and my mom. We couldn't quite figure out what a pe-neese (accent on the neese) was....until we looked at the card and it said penis.

when i was like 8 yrs. old, i used to think that condoms where like those lane bryant strecth pads. when i saw 1 at the layne bryant store, i said "LOOK MOMMY! CONDOMS!" we all did somthing stupid at our age, right?

I used to believe…

My belief is one simple and wide-spread among youngest children: I believed that after I was born, my parents never had sex again. Oh, no - but unlike other kids, this, I could verify.

From infancy to adolesence, due to a very strong fear of aliens abducting me in my sleep, ghosts killing me, and other such things, I slept in my parents' bed. Obviously, if I was in the bed with them, my parents couldn't do anything, right? End of story. No hanky-panky there.

I blissfully went on believing this until the age of sixteen, when my dad dropped the bombshell: when he and my mom wanted to..."get it on", for lack of a better term, they would slip me NyQuil to make sure that I slept the night in my own proper bed and wouldn't interrupt them!

He told me this when I was behind the wheel of a thousand-pound SUV, too. He was lucky I didn't cause an 18-year pile-up.

I thought that when girls got their period every month it was a one-time thing, like you're sitting watching TV and all of a sudden a small bunch of blood comes out, you change your underwear and you're done. I was too shy to ask anyone and only discovered the truth that spring when I was 12.
