When I was younger, I heard my parents having sex one night. I didnt know that they were having sex at the time, I thought that they were just having a jumping on the bed contest, and I could tell that they were getting tired because they were breathing hard. The next morning I asked my mom who won.

— Britneysex : sex

My mother told me that when I was 4 and my brother was born I said "that one ugly and bald bring it back for a pretty girl one"and when my grandma brought me to the hospital gift shop and wanted me to pick out a stuffed animal for my baby brother I refused because "I dont like him, he is ugly"

I used to think that your period was this, red, gloppy mess, that would give you a stomach ache until you went to the bathroom to get it out...much like a bowel movement.
I don't know what made me think this. I'm glad my idea wasn't true though.

When I was little, I asked someone what sex was, and they told me, "When two people put their private parts together." I misunderstood and thought that a man had to place his penis between a woman's breasts and just lie there until the baby was made.

— Luckysex : sex

I was pretty clear on what happened during sex - the penis went into the vagina. But I had no clue about erections. I thought that the penis just went straight down, and that in order to have sex, a man and woman would need to lie head-to-feet, with one of them faced to the side, fit together sort of like jiwsaw pieces.

I concluded that it was a very complicated process, that required lots of practice, forethought, and a good grasp of geometry. I'm not sure how I rationalized the idea that people had sex facing each other. I just thought that was another myth about sex.

After being allowed to eat as many beets as I cared to at lunch one day (my gramma was minding me), I was horrified to see later that when I weed, the water turned red. I was convinced I was the first 6-year-old to get her period. When my mum came home, she noticed I was very preoccupied and after getting the horrible truth out of me, proceeded to dress down my gramma for overfeeding me beets and scaring the tar out of me.

I'd once heard maxi pads referred to as "feminine napkins", so for a while I used to think that when I got my period I would have to put a dinner napkin down my pants.

My brother told me that my parents got me at the Salvation Army, and I was thrown in a sale bin, and the only other candidate for adoption in there with me was a kid with no arms or legs.

I had no idea what maxi pads were for and stocked my Barbie townhouse with maxi pad beds one day

i used to believe that you got pregnant from kissing someone, cuz everytime there was a kissing scene in neighbours.. the next episode would start with that person saying they were pregnant.

— s00z dotcomsex : rude bits

When my two daughters were pre-teens I heard them snickering in the back seat of the car. I asked them what aws so funny and they replied that I wouldn't understand, it was something new. I convinced them to tell me so I would not feel stupid not knowing what this new thing was. Well between snickers they told me what it was--------- Condoms!

I used to believe that gay sex involved a man sticking his penis inside another man's penis.

When I was five, my three year old brother and I had found our father's box of special ballons, in his dresser. One day, Mom seemed particularily worried and frazzled, and announced that the banker was coming to meet with our family about backing us with a loan to get us through a rough season. It was essential that the house be clean and us children scrubbed, and on our best behavior. Given there were six of us, Mom lost track and my brother and I were on our own, as usual. We decided to help and decorated the kitchen and living room with Dad's Special Ballons while he and Mom showed the Banker around the farm before lunch. The adults didn't notice our hard work, until after they had come in, sat down and in the middle of grace my mother let out a scream that could be heard, I am sure, miles away.

— Sandy Welchsex : condoms

I remember once my mom was explianing periods to me. She told me that when I had my period, I couldn't go near water. Wide-eyed, I asked, "I can't even drink water?" I thought that for a while.

Before I really knew what condoms were I used to believe that you would put them on like scuba gear...I really thought it was something you wore allo ver your body!

I usedto believe that Maxi pads were to soak up underarm sweat. I was shocked to find out their real use at a Mother daughter night in the 5th grade.
