sex

i used to believe that when in singles advertisements people put down "BDSM" they meant "big dick, small man". I always found myself imagining a little pixie or something with like a six-foot long manhood.

when i was 11 i still didnt know what sed was and i had my period already. So one day my bf and i were in my backyard place and he asked me if i had sex yet. I told him i didnt even know what it was yet. He said it was a very complicated process where the man licked the woman's clitoris. I asked him why he brought this up and he said he wanted to have sex. I told him id think about it and that night i said to my mother,"Bobby wants to lick my clitoris. Would i get in trouble?"

I used to think protestants and prostitutes where sort of the same thing, not quite knowing what prostitutes really were i used to wonder how there could be a whole religion about 'women who have sex for money'

When I was little I believed only the most beautiful girls would become prostitutes, why else would everybody want to have sex with them?

I belived from 7-11 that if two people had sex in the shower they would die, i thought this becasue i always watched horror movies with my family and that would always happen when two people where in the shower together

Mizunderstood!

i thought cyber sex was like two robots having sex (i must be a strange child)

When I was little, I used to play with my barbies a lot and make them "have sex", which, for barbies, meant smacking them together violently face to face. It took me a while to figure out that that isn't what sex is.

When I was in lower school I had a pretty good idea of sex from what I'd read, but for some reason I was convinced it was ALWAYS done standing up. Like, in a bathroom stall or something, with the woman against a wall. Hey, at least it was plausible.
I was confused by television that showed couples in bed together, obviously being sexual. Where was the bed supposed to come in if you did it standing up?

When I was 10, my friend Larry explained sex to me. A man and a woman would take their clothes off and get in bed, and the man would get on top of her. Then, they'd rub their tits together.
It made sense; why else would a man have nipples?

When I was younger, I used to think that when I masturbated that I was actually "having sex with myself". Since I am a Christian, I thought that having sex before marriage, even with myself, was sinning.
I worried for ages, and even debated telling my parents that I wasn't a virgin anymore. I worried terribly that my future husband would disown me when he found out that I wasn't a virgin.
Finally, when I was about 14, I discreetly asked my mother what she thought about it (through the old "my friend has this problem.." line, I'm sure she saw right through it, but it was way less embarrassing) and she told me to "tell my friend" it was totally natural and nothing to be ashamed of, and that "she" was definitely still a virgin.
I can't tell you what a relief that was.

When I first learned what a french kiss was (which was like, 5 or 6) I didn't know it was really only for lovers and stuff. I remember french kissing my mom that day (I didn't see anything wrong with it) and she was like "What are doing?" I just told her it was a french kiss and she said i shouldn't do it. lol. Sometimes I think about it and pray that she never remembers it to tell anybody. Yeah, I was pretty stupid

when i first realise what sex is all about (without understanding the mechanism, however), I thought it'll need a very long bed! I thought the heads of the couple have to be pointing to opposite directions...

I knew what sex was, at least as much as I could know without actually experiencing it myself yet, but I thought the birds and the bees was somthing new that I couldn't wait to find out. When my older sister decided to "teach" me all about the birds and the bees, I was so disapointed because I thought I'd be learning something new. I said, "that's it, that's the birds and the bees? I already know that stuff!"

When I was in pre-school I thought sex was a noun a lolly-pop. So one day I came to school and told my friend "I have sex do you want some" Ha Ha

When I was about five or six I had a friend who lived next door. She was three years older than me and knew a lot about sex from her school friends. She always put these ridiculous ideas in my head about what happened during sex. In fact on several occasions things she'd told me had gotten me in trouble.

I don't exactly remember this, but my mother told me that when I was around that age, we were going to go out somewhere, and my parents were trying to get dressed in their room. I kept trying to go in, and finally my mom opened the door and said, ''Can we please have a little privacy?!'' I told her, ''I know what privacy means. Privacy means sex.''

Having bugged my mum on a really long car drive for about an hour on how ladies got pregnant she snapped and yelled 'Becuase a man puts his penis in her vagina!'. Being very young I didn't know about erections, but i did know that the vagina was hidden away between the legs so I came to the horrific conclusion that the man and woman's legs had to be broken so that the penis could get at the vagina! I wondered why anyone would go through that to have a child.

When I was three or four, I went into my mom and dad's bedroom when they weren't paying attention (they weren't in their room either). I found my mom's vibrator and didn't know what it was and (yep, you guessed it) started playing with it. Now, it didn't look like a penis, it was just shaped like one. And you know, since pills are long and skinny and so are penises, I thought the vibrator was a giant pill with HUNDREDS of tiny pills inside. My mom had always reffered to taking pills when she didn't feel good, and that particular night I didn't feel good. So I tried EVERTHING to get the"giant pill" open so I could be a big girl and take a grown up pill just like Mommy did! I even tried getting it open with my teeth (EW!!!). Days later I asked my mom why she kept all her pills in the "giant pill" and when she replied "What giant pill??," I explained to her what happened. Then she told to me what it was, what it was used for, and that I should never touch it again! (You can imagine how akward that was!). Now that I'm 28 and married, I still reffer to vibrators as "giant pills."

My mom is a Labor & Delivery nurse so I always knew where babies came from and that it involved sex. But I distinctly remember thinking (around age 4 or 5) that sex was peeing into the mouth of your significant other. Strange!

I used to believe that sex was only done in the hospital, and doctors would watch as the couple had sex. I believed this until I was 13.

In seventh grade, I became a aware of what they used to call "venereal diseases," but was a little unclear on how you got them.

For some reason I was under the impression that venereal diseases only happened to people who weren't married. Syphilis and gonorrhea were not transmitted person to person; they were instead CAUSED by the act of two unmarried people having sex, the way smoking cigarettes causes cancer.

What I couldn't figure out was how marriage granted a couple immunity to these terrible diseases.
