periods

I used to think that women ate their tampons and then pee it out when their period was over.

I used to think that you kept the plastic part on the tampons when you put them in. That is why I never used to wear them. lol

I used to beleive that when a girl wore a tampon she couldn.t go to the bathroom until she removed it. I thought they had to hold their pee all day!

When I was about 13 years old and started my period for the first time, I was quite pleased with myself, and quite proud. As evening rolled around, it started to get later and later and finally my mother said that I had better get to bed. I asked her what time the period was supposed to stop for the night. I thought it would stop for night and then start up again in the morning. When she told me that it didn't, I was completely outraged.

When I was 9 or 10, I'd read all the teen magazines and I'd see all these ads for pads. Confused, I went and asked my mum what pads were and she said it was to avoid staining your underwear. I thought to myself, "I could use some pads," because I was starting to get discharge and it was staining my underwear, and that's what I thought my period was.

When me and my best friend first started our periods niether of us used tampons (my mom was scared i would lose my virginty if i did lol).

My friend was the first to use one cuz she got her period on vacation and afterward she was telling me about it. She said at first she started putting it in the wrong hole and i was shocked cuz i thought there was only one hole down there! i was about 12.

My Grandmother told me that if a girl kisses a boy too soon it will make her have an early and difficult ministration. So I saved my first kiss for when I had my first period.

***I used to believe that when you started your period you would just pee blood and then it accured to me, if you just peed blood then why would you need pads.

I used to believe that when a woman got her period, she had it every day and when it happened to me i would have to steal pads because it would be very expensive

I used to believe that when you had your first period blood would run out like it does on a sink.

when i was a bit younger and in the 5th grade my best friend had just gotten her period. and i wasn't completly sure what it was. and i remember her saying she had to wear a pad. and so i thought that once you got your period, it stayed with you forever. so i was sooooo scared to get it. cause i just thought that you would have to wear a pad until you were an old old lady. and so i was scared that once i got it, i'd never be the same. and so i "cherished" my time period free.....

* i learned the truth in the 7th grade when we had to watch the sex video..ahahaha*

i used to believe that the blood came out of ur butt

not tellin' you

When i had my first period, i wasnt really prepared so my Mom had to go buy me some of my own pads, my sister who was a very curious little girl snuck into the closet and found the pads, later that year my family was having a get-together and my sister blurtted out to me, "Sissy! Do you still have to wear those diapers?" I laugh now, but back then I was so embarassed!

When I was around twelve, (I was kinda slow) I thought that sanitary napkins were for women that can't hold there bladder. I was at my relatives house joking with my uncle. I called him a big woman, and said he should not forget to get his maxi pads. I thought it was funny, but when my mom asked me what I thought they were for, and she corrected me, I actually laughed harder.
