When I was 3 or 4 my best friend from across the street took me into her bathroom and showed me her privates and I thought that she and I just had sex.

When I was 6 I thought sex was making out with someone. When I was flipping channels in my room in that age and I saw people making out, I sais "Ew! They're having sex!" :B

I used to believe that sex was when a boy and a girl would lie on their sides and hump each others legs.

Till i was 11, i believed sex meant licking each other's bottom. I didnt ever imagine till then that it had any connection with producing babies.

When I was learning about stranger danger, people were so vague with descriptions like "saying things that make you uncomfortable", "touching you in a way that makes you uncomfortable", and "talking about sex" that I thought that:

A) Any stranger who accidentally scared you or tried to hug you when you didn't want a hug, etc was bad news, and...

B) It was illegal to tell a child how babies were made unless you were their parent or teacher.

When i was 8 on my birthday a boy had told me that he wanted to have sex with me and that it would be my birthday present. So i agreed and There was an old bed in the garage we both just laid in the bed about 30 min into our "sex" my mom comes into the garage i jump up and scream mom dont look! and she didnt see us because the bed was hidden and she walks back inside and i wondered how to explain to her that i had jsut had sex by lying down in a bed with a boy.

When I was a little kid, I was talking to one of my friends, and we started talking about sex. I didn't know what it was, so she explained to me that it was when a man and a woman make their private parts touch. So for the longest time I thought that a man had to put his penis between a woman's breasts. I was always confused about how that could be the way babies were made...

I used to believe that only women have orgasms. One can imagine how I learned the truth about this one at age 12 in the bathroom, all alone. I've always been scientific, finding things out for myself...

When I was younger I knew that sex involved a mans penis going into the womans vagina, but the sperm part got me, I didnt know this existed so I thought that man and woman would just stay "together" and the longer they stayed "together" the more likely that the woman would become pregnant.

I used to think that if you swallowed cum you could get pregnant

and i used to think that 'fingering' someone meant running your finger down their body all sensual like haha

When I was younger and on the news people said "She was raped and thrown into a ditch" I thought a girl was scratched up with a RAKE and thrown into a ditch because those words sound similar.

I heard that religious people didn't believe in "stopping themselves from having children", and I thought this meant that they didn't believe in stop themselves that they should stop themselves from having sex every time they got horny.

i used to believe that if you were gay you just kissed and held hands and stuff with people of the same sex, and you became lesbian if you had sex with them.

When my brother was much younger, he and his friend were discussing the birds and the bees. When I came into the house, my brother said his friend (who is supposed to have a genius I.Q.!)wanted to know if men and women had sex by touching one another's private parts. One of my parents overheard him saying this, and needless to say it was a while before that particular "friend" was invited back.

sorry for the graphic nature of this one but...
When I was little I though that you had sex up the a-hole and I was totally unaware of the other hole. So I was confused about where the baby came out and thought somehow it was your pee-hole. Until one day I was talking to these girls and I said something like "in one way - out the other!" and they were like, "huh?" and then i realized my error.

I used to believe that for sex to happen, the man and the woman had to be kissing during the whole process, and if they stopped kissing, it wouldn't work and they'd have to start over.

When I was in fourth grade, I mistakenly thought that a "wet dream" was bed wetting instead of a nocturnal emission. Until years later, I couldn't understand why all the kids thought is was funny that I had a "wet dream" because every child at one time wet their bed.

I had a boyfriend who told me that my best friend had definitely slept with her boyfriend recently because people walk that "certain way" for up to 72 hours.

I remember my mom telling me when I was about 9 that a man puts his penis into a woman's vagina when they make love. I had no idea for many years that a penis actually, literally, GOES INSIDE a woman's vagina, so I just assumed that a penis goes nicely "in" the vagina: like a hotdog in a bun.
