When I was little I thought tampons were just rolled up pads and you would use it by taking it out of the applicator and unroll it. It wasn't until I watched a video in 5th grade explaining about periods and pads and tampons that I understood what it was.

In my family sex isn't really a talked about subject, so when I was younger (almost in high school) I thought sex was just a dirty thing perverted people did and had nothing to do with getting pregnant. I remember thinking I'd be so embarassed if I ever found out anyone in my family had ever had sex. By the way, my mum has seven children.

when i was 12 i tricked my friend into thinking that oral sex was talking dirty on the phone like on those dating hotlines on those late nite tv commercials. a year later (i forgot that he had actually believed me), he came up to me and said that he had oral sex with dads cell phone, alone when his family was sleeping. I thought he was sucking his own penis!!!!
I once thought tampons were diapers but then when i found one in the garbage i told my sister i found a diaper in the garbage.

when i was younger i asked my older sister where babies came from and she told me the man had to give the women a special seed. So i thought you could buy "baby seeds" (that the man would hand to the women and she would eat it) in a garden centre next to the plant seeds! Untill I was about 7 i always used to look for them when we went shopping!

when I was really little, my mom told me that babies came from eggs. I had an image in my mind of a giant chicken egg, thus why a pregnant lady's stomach was so round. I asked her if my shell was hard or soft, did the yolk spill when the doctor cracked it.

After I had hit puberty, I thought that only girls got hair "down there" because I'd only ever seen women naked. I was really suprised when I started getting sexual years later!

I use to believe that the man peed in the woman to get her pregnant. Didn't know about sperm until sex ed.
I used to believe…
Up until i was about 9 i thought that you could give birth to a baby by yourself, without the help of a man, but maybe a man would help speed up the pregnancy or make the baby healthier.I think i made that mistake because i didn't understand how single mothers came about. So whenever I saw a single mother with a child i imagined her as being a bit irresponsible and silly for not getting a man to help her make the the baby first.

Just a few days ago (I'm 13) I found out that the penis and the testicals were different. My dad was telling a story about his friend on a boat. He said that ONE of his testicals were hanging out. I was confused until I asked my mom. It makes more sense now

When I was little, I believed that there was many different types of sex and that the main one was getting naked and rubbing your butts together, I thought this was just something adults did for fun, I didn't know the actual purpose for it.

When I was young I went to a farm and to cows were, ahh, "having fun". A girl about my age told me that they were training for the circus. So every time I went to the zoo and I saw two animals "having fun", I would say "Look, they are training for the circus". This continued until 10 when i found out where babies REALLY came from.

I used to believe that Test Tube Babies were babies that were born with problems, and they had to run Tests to make sure the babies tube was working properly.
I thought Viagra was an allergy medication. When I mentioned this to my dad, he laughed. I then asked the question he was dreading. "Well, what is it then?"
He said, briefly, "It's for men who's penises aren't straight."
So for a few months, I imagined boomerang-shaped penises!
