I was told that when you "do the deed" by yourself, you grow hairy palms. Funny thing is I was 17 when they told me, and I looked at my palms. Needless to say everyone got a good laugh at my expense.

i used to believe girls laid eggs
I had a very sophisticated idea of how babies got here when I was 7.
Every baby starts as a vegetable. You can tell what veggie people's mommies' ate to get them by what they looked like. I had been a string bean and other people were peas and others yet carrots and celery, etc. This only happens when the mommy eats the vegetable and is in love with a daddy and they decide they want a baby.
And I proceded to tell everyone who'd listen and one evening took all my 16 year old sister's male friends one by one in private and told them exactly how they came to be. Needless to say, she was mortified. What veggie were YOU?
The ironic thing is I always hated vegetables. lol

When i was yong, I asked my mom how did my father and her made me. She answered that my dad put his penis in her vagina. Three days later I woke my mom telling that I taught I got my teddy bear pregnant because I put my penis in her vagina.
I used to believe that women could only have babies once they were married because there was some biological connection between wearing a wedding ring and being able to get pregnant. Obviously I'd never heard of unwed mothers at that tender age...

I used to believe the little bumps on a womens nipples spelled out "suck here" in braille for blind babies
I used to believe that the way adults "did it" was to lie in bed, sound asleep, separated by about 12 inches. While sleeping the man's tallywacker would point toward the womans privates and shoot her. Of course she was totally oblivious to this. I about had a heart attack when I saw my dog and a neighbors doing the wild thing. My mom had to sit me down and explain the birds and bees to me. It blew my mind away and totally grossed me out.

When I was about 2 years old I saw my older brother naked briefly when my mom was putting him in the bath. I was convinced a penis wasn't attached to the body, but rather something boys had to hold between their legs. If they moved their legs apart, it would fall off. No idea how I came to this conclusion.

I used to believe…
When I was about 9 I thought I was pregnant because my stomach was a bit bigger and rounded. I was so scared and was thinking about how to tell my mom. After a bit of logical thinking I realized that I had to get my period before I could get pregnant. After even more logical thinking I realized I had to have sex too. Needless to say I was VERY relieved!

When my cousin and I were about 10 or 11 we thought that if you rub butter on your chest every day and don't wash it off, it would make your breast grow( we were anxious ). After about a week of horrible body odor and still no breast we were convinced that it was time dump the Parkay and head for the shower.
