When I was in elementary (about 2-3rd grade), my classmate and I were talking about penises and one of them said that once you get really old your penis will shrink until it disappears. So after hearing that story, most of us believed that our Granpa's just have long sagging balls.

When I was like 6 I saw the hooters sign. There was an owl on it with big eyebrows. And I thought that was what hooters were; eyebrows. So later that night I walked up to my dad and said "LOOK I CAN MOVE MY HOOTERS" when I was really just moving my eyebrows..... my sister won't let me live that one down and that was like 7 years ago....

When I was little, I went to a clinic and accidentally misread the information on the poster there. So, after that I came to think that women get "big boobs" (as compared to having no chest at all) only after they give birth to a baby and breastfeed him or her. For some time I went around looking at womens' chests and "knowing" whether they already had children or not.

When I was little, I used to think that girls didn't have any gentals, just a hole for pee to come out. Then I got a sister and saw that girls had vulvas.

Once my aunt told me that if I was a bad boy, they would send me to the Oscar Meyer plant. She said that is where the cut off boy penises to make hot dogs. I believed her. I never liked that aunt very much.

When I was little I thought that my big brother had a penis and I didn't, NOT because he was a boy and I was a girl, but because he was older. I thought I would later grow a penis (and that everyone did when they got old enough). For a long time I thought that whenever I pooped, THAT meant that I was trying to grow my penis, or at least that it was the growing penis inside oof me pushing the poopoo out!

As twisted as this sounds, I was young and naturally very curious. Whenever others would use the term "balls" to refer to a guy's testicles, I was never aware of what testicles actually were, but that his penis was an arrangement of 3 small balls ... kind of the same idea as a snowman.
It looked this this: ooo

As one of my chores, I had to fold clothes. When I was younger, I thought the hole in my brothers' underwear was a place to hold an icepack if they got hit in the balls.

I used to believe that a woman had 3 body openings: The anus, the "pussy," and the vagina. The vagina was between the other 2, and was where the people "did it" and where the baby came out.

Until I was about ten and saw my first live penis, (a baby), I thought that a penis was shaped like a fig leaf. Since all the pictures I saw of statues, etc, the penis is covered by a fig leaf!

I thought a nickname for women's breasts was "standards" because I was a little kid standing in the lunch line at school and I hear a high school girl talking about how her neckline wasn't down to her standards yet.

i used to believe that every one was born with a penis, including girls, and girls had to chop it off when they wanted to become moms and have sex.

When I was at nursery school, they had one of those dolls, the ones that you would give water to and then they would urinate. This particular one was a male, and as a result, had male genitalia. As a three year old girl, I had no idea what these were, and believed the doll had swallowed its tonsils.

When I was young, around 7, my Dad warned me that if I played with my penis it would eventually turn black and fall off. Well, he was a recently-retired nurse, and I had absolutely no reason to disbeleive him - he'd given me tons of information on the human body already. Of course this was completely and totally untrue. However, I beleived it for a long time, and didn't really discover masturbation until I was thirteen, after I managed to convince myself that it was a lie. Actually, in his mind, he wasn't lying to me - I asked my Dad about it and he said he really beleived it, as a kid and still today.

He's 70 years old. For his entire life, ALL SEVENTY YEARS OF IT, he truly and totally beleived that masturbation would cause penises to turn black and fall off. He's probably never masturbated in his life.

The thing is, though, it was probably because he was raised in a family that were very likely prudes. I guess we can't really blame him. Still funny, though!

When I was a little girl I read a poem that talked about a woman and her 'baubles'. I didn't know what baubles were so I assumed they were her breasts. Even now that I am grown and know the truth, I still affectionately think of them as my baubles.

I used to believe that pinocchio lived inside people and that boys were liars because pinocchio's nose would grow so long that it would hang outside their bodies. (Now I know what a penis is) I thought girls always told the truth because they didn't have a long nose thingy, 'penis'. How wrong was I!
