When I was about 9, I had just started learning about sex. One day my neighbor asked "What sex are you?" I replied "Safe." He obviously meant Male or Female.

Okay when I was younger I happened to catch an episode of Roseanne where the daughter was all pissy and mentioned getting her "period last night." I had no idea what that was, so one day at dinner, I ask out loud "Mom, what's a period?" Her boyfriend looked up and goes "The dot at the end of a sentence." Now, I knew that wasn't it, but I didn't press the matter.

A couple days later I was in the bathroom when mom started getting ready for a shower. She took her pants off and I saw a string hanging from her ladyarea, and I was like "Mom, what's that?" and she goes "That's my period." So for like, years after, I thought the period was when a string hung from your lady part. Haha

I used to believe that moms get pregnant just by praying to God..

When i was 3 i asked my mom how she got pregnant.. She told me she just prayed everyday so that God will give her a baby boy..Thinking it was true, the stupid me wanted to have a baby of my own (at the age of 3!hahaha)..in the end, i kept on praying secretly everyday, even kneeling down to the floor! months passed and i kept on checking my tummy--still flat..so i ended giving up and told myself my mom was a liar..

just laughing at this good ol memory everytime i would have my anatomy class..never thought having babies could be so exciting and complicated..hehehe..sigh* (",)

I used to believe that if you were a girl and you touched yourself, ahem "down there", you wouldn't end up getting your period or it would get delayed for a really long time.

I thought this when I was around 9 or 10. When I was 12, I dissapointedly found out how wrong I was.

Some girl.

When I was 5, my mom was pregnant. I already knew where babies come from so I asked her if the baby would be a boy or a girl. She says it depends on what you eat. If you eat meat then the baby would be a boy, if you eat fruits and vegetables then the baby would be a girl. I always believed her ever since because she ate meat during the pregnancy of me and my brother, and for my sisters pregnancy she ate fruits and veggies...

I got my twisted view of sex from watching Back To The Future as a young child. I remembered seeing Biff with his hand up Lorraine's skirt, and her calling for help, so I naturally assumed that sex involved the man's hands and the woman's privates. I believed this until health class in middle school set me straight. I even made my Barbies have "sex" with Ken's hands up the ladies' skirts. (After all, Ken does nothing to promote a correct understanding of the male body.)

When I was little and heard about how babies originated from eggs in your stomach, i always thought that the egg was originally a seed that grew to an egg. either you were born with the seed or not. I would go to my parents and asked them if they could feel the seed moving in my stomach and was very disappointed when they said it wasn't there.
