rude bits

My friend Kitty used to think a hand-job was when you stuck your index finger in the guys pee hole. Thank goodness her boyfriend had very strong morals. . .

When I was about 11 I believed I had breast cancer because I developed 2 hard lumps in my nipples. I had heard a commercial about checking breasts for lumps. For a year I was scared I had cancer and was totally relieved when I finally asked the doctor and he told me it was normal and I was just developing.

My dad used to tell me if i picked at my vagina flies would fly up it.

I used to believe that the female body part was called "the gina" as opposed to "vagina."

When I was little I used to call vaginas triangles and one day I told my brother that I had a triangle and he told me he had one too so I was super confused until I learned that guys had penises and girls had vaginas

I remember when I was really little, I was taking a bath with my little brother and my cousin, Allie, at my grandma's house. I remember my little brother then saying, "Mom, why doesn't Allie have a pee-pee?" I didn't know either!

I used to believe that your balls and scrotum were a 'hat' for your penis - so-called a 'Penis-hat.'

Tom

whenever i was little, my mom always called my vagina a 'bird'...i thought everone called theirs that, imagine how surprised i was whenever i was getting my talk in 4th grade and they called it a vagina, i was so embarressed!

That masturbation would make you blind

I used to believe that sexual organs didn't depend on gender, but on what family you were in. To this day, I SWEAR when my friend and her brother were running around naked, my very girly friend had a penis.

I was told by an elementary school classmate that boys/men have FOUR testicles. I believed that well into becoming Sexually active... I was always looking for the other 2!

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 think that a blow job was when a woman literally "blew" on a man's penis. I thought men liked that.

I used to think the umbilical cord was connected to the genitals of newly born babies, and that when the cord was cut the midwife had to be very careful-if the baby was a boy she might accidentally cut his penis off, and if the baby was a girl she might not cut enough off and there would be all this excess cord just dangling.

I used to be convinced that a vagina was simply a round hole on the front of a girl's groin

Our family name for girls bits was "pee-pee".. when I was about 4, my cousin and I got into a fight about it because she tried to tell me that it was called a "va-china"... I didn't believe that such a big word would be used for "that"..

My older brother actually had me convinced that "balling" a girl meant that the boy inserted his testicles in a girls' vagina. When the time came for...well....you can imagine MY surprise. Goofy old fart. Nearly left me a virgin.

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.

Rob

I was once told by an older kid in the neighborhood that that all Oriental Women's vaginas were slanted horizontally, because their eyes were slanted as well. I believed this for quite some time and even brought it up in conversations as a pre-teen.

Steve, you don't have to feel bad about your misconception of where the semen seeped out. I used to think it seeped through the scrotum! Furthermore, I thought that because of that, a condom was worn around the scrotum!

Struggling back then
