In my young, impressionable years, my sadistic older sister informed me that when you get to 8th grade you have sex education, and the teacher would randomly call on a boy and a girl to come to the front of the class to drop their pants for illustrative purposes. The rest of the class would gather around and stare while the teacher would point out various anatomical features. I lived in fear of being the unlucky victim of this mortifying exercise.

Fortunately, when I finally reached 8th grade, the teacher picked someone else :)

my mum told me when I was about 6 or 7 about reproduction, and the different body parts. She explained that girls had 3 holes- 1 to poo, 1 to pee, and 1 where the baby comes out. I found this interesting, but it also made me worry. I knew that my penis needed to go into the one where the baby gets born, but I was scared I would never be able to tell them apart.

In second grade it was common knowledge among us boys that the way you made your penis bigger was by holding pee in for as long as you could.

Some time well before puberty, I used to wake up with a hard-on in the morning. As I usually had to pee in the morning, I put two and two together and decided the hard-ons were due to my penis getting filled up with urine overnight.

I used to believe that there was a wise, bearded, old father figure in the sky who cared about nothing in the entire universe so much as what I was doing with my penis.

One day in the elementary school playground some other boys and I were drawing in the dirt. With a certain amount of pride, I drew a penis -- I don't recall what term I used at that age -- and drew it like my own, uncircumcised.

The boy I was playing with scoffed and told me I'd drawn it wrong, and drew a penis presumably more like his own -- circumcised.

I was shamed and believed I was deformed.

I asked my older sister what a thong was and she said
"undies that go up your butt"
SO I imagined that it was underware with a pole on it that you would stick up your asshole.
Believed this one until high school when thongs got popular: why the heck would people WANT to stick poles up their butt?

I used to think that "outie" belly buttons were really tiny little penises, and "innie" belly buttons were miniature vaginas. I thought that the real equipment was only used for the bathroom and it was really the belly buttons that were involved in sex. So, since I have an innie, I was always afraid to hug my friends with outie belly buttons, even if they were girls, 'cause I didn't want to get pregnant.

When I was little, I thought If I wore my mother's bra to bed, I would wake up with big breasts. Much to my surprise, when I woke up the next morning, there was no change. I was puzzled.

I am probably the last virgin bride in the history of my family. And I grew up in a very protected and rigid Catholic family, so I really didn't know very much about sex in general, and the opposite sex in particular.

When I was a sophomore in college, one night after "lights out" we all gathered in one girl's room to talk about sex. One of the girls said she'd actually seen a naked man, and described his parts in great detail.

THe first time I ever saw an adult naked male was on my wedding night. And I was astounded. I asked my husband why his penis didn't have "concentring rings of hair." He looked at me and laughed and laughed and wanted to know where in the world I picked up that strange notion. I told him about the night in the dorm and said "Mary Francis (not her real name) said that's what men looked like." For several years I thought that there was something wrong with my husband because he didn't look like the dorm-room conversation had led me to expect.

Guess I was in about third or fourth grade when I heard some boys in my class talking about a "dick." I didn't know what that was, so I asked them, and they told me it was something a dentist puts in your mouth. Along the line I got some conflicting information and really wasn't happy about the idea of going to the dentist for a long time after that.

When my brother was 4 years old he asked my Mother if penises have bones in them. My Mother said, "I don't think so Honey." And my brother said, "I think they do Mom, and I think when they do it's called satisfaction!"

A friend used to tell me that oriental (Asian) women have a horizontal vagina. I never figured out if he really believed that or was teasing because I was hanging out with an Asian girl at the time.

When me andmy sister were little we used to call farts blow offs. So obviously when everyone at school started talking about giving somebody a blow job i thought it was really disgusting because i thought they wanted to fart in the guys face!

I used to believe that when a guy was circumsised that the whole head of a guys penis was cut off, so I thought I was uncut until I was about 19 and saw what it really meant.

Ouch that would hurt!

I used to believe that girls must have something similar to a "hard on". I thought that the outside of their vagina would get hard like a rock. I called it a "rocky".

My folks tell me that when I was a youngster of two or three, I came into a room full of guests and announced that my vagina itched. I am (and was) a male.

I used to believe that I had traveled to China and bragged to a cousin that my "booty's been to China". My mother overheard me and realized that I had misunderstood her when she had informed me of the proper name for my genitalia (vagina).

I am the only girl in my entire extended family and the youngest to boot. My brother saw my grandmother changing my diaper one day and was freaked out by the fact that I lacked a penis--it was the first he'd seen of me being at all different, so he snached me up off the changing table and ran with me to my mother to stop her from cutting off anything else. He was acute one--when he was told my mother was having a baby he asked if she would have me under the kitchen table like our dog Pepper. Fortunately for me the answer was no.
