periods

There was a pad ad which showed a middle aged woman bike riding. Then they shoed a pad. I thought they were for old people in case they wet there pants. Like a nappy for old people.
My cousin who is 2 years older then me had to explain it. Needless to say I then told all my friends lol.

diapers for old ppl?

my stupid little brother walked in the bathroom and seen a tampon sitting on the counter and he said"hey how come i can't get a popsicle?"

I always thought that women had to keep the plastic part on when inserting a tampon...
Someone on here said that wasn't the case...
How interesting lol...

I'd rather not tell lol!

i used to believe that when you got your period you would pee and it would just come out than!

when my fren first got her period, she thought she had some terminal disease and that she was going to die. she even told one of her male friends that!

WHEN I WAS LITTLE,THE CORNER STORE HAD A DISPLAY OF KOTEX IN THE WINDOW. WHEN I ASK MY MOM WHAT THEY WERE SHE SAID A WOMAN PUT THEM UNDER HER ARM PITS TO KEEP FROM SWEATING ON HER CLOTHES. WISH IT COULD HAVE BEEN THAT SIMPLE.

I used to believe that a period was something that you'd get when you wanted to have babies. The docter would do sugery on you so you could have a baby, and then becuase of that you'd bleed every now and then.
I was -so- scared...

When I was really little I used to believe tampons were for keeping a woman's pubes from getting inside her. Some genius on the subject of periods I was. :P

Kai

when i was little,like 8, i thought that a womans period was a subject in school.

I used to believe that when a woman got period for the first time she wasn't virgin any more.

When i was little i believed that the pads(that my mom wore) were like diapers....so i asked my mom if i could have one and she said yea and so i put it on my underwear and when i had to go pee i just went in the pad....then i figured out it wasnt a diaper

I found sanitary towells in my moms drawer and stuck it on my leg thinking it was a big plaster.

Nadine

My friend's little brother (he was 7) thought her mom's pads were pampers. so, he asked his mom if she was hawing a baby and if she still loves him!

i used to think that my period would start red. Well, then i got mine, it was almost black!!!! I thought i had cancer or something!
thank god for mom who didn't laugh her head off- i was sooo SCARED!

not a cancer patient

When I first got my period I thought I was dying.
I started crying I'm like "Mommy I have cancer!" and she's like "what?" I told her i saw blood in my pants and she just started laughing. Don't think I'm a Dee Dee Dee or anything I was ten I wish someone could have told me earlier.

Shannon the comedian

when i was 10 i knew what sex was (im a guy) and then i came here cause i was bored. then i saw the period page and a wondered "whats a period" so then i looked in a dictionary and it said "a woman's bleeding between her legs." i then thought on a certain day a girl would go to the doctor and the doctor would poke her vagina till it bleeds... ZOMG

im glad im not a girl...

I thought the applicator on a tampon was the string, and I thought that the whole tampon (including the plastic) went inside you.

A while ago I was walking to the park with two of my girlfriends, three guy friends, and my 6 year old brother. There was a ripped up box of tampons on the street. My brother asked what they were. We told him that they were drugs. Then my mom drove up. My brother picked one up and ran to show her the "drugs". We havent lauged so hard, and I cant wait till he gets old enough to make that a family joke

When I was nine, I used to believe that tampons were a form of birth control and women wore them during sex.

I used to think that menstrual pads were big band-aids used to cover up a big boo-boo, that a normal band aid can't cover up!
