My name is newlyironman and I was I my late teens before I knew what TLC wasn't saying that the guy was yelling at the girl out the passenger window when they said he was "hollering" in the song " scrubs". I couldn't understand why he would try and get a girl by yelling at her.

I just recently (age 29) discovered that you can buy blackberries at the grocery store. ? My parents and grandparents always had blackberry bushes, so when we wanted them, we would just go outside and pick them. I thought you had to pick them yourself. ??♀️

I got schooled by my ex when I was ...... what 21? That the female urethra is in the same place as the vaginal opening. I thought pee came out of the clit.
I was like no way!!!! Then we googled it an low and behold yes.
I am so embarrassed about this.

"Hangin out the passengers side of his best friends ride, trying to holler at me"?? that's my jam lol
But before I fully understood what sex was, I had a dog so I thought a mans penis had a "red rocket" also that had to come out and go inside a girl and that would get her pregnant ???

When I was in High School the song "Throw Some D's" was big. I thought D's were dollas but apparently they are rims.
I think it was just embarrassing because I always pretended to throw money during that song lmao.

When I was a kid, I legitimately thought guys just had a bump in their crotch like ken dolls. Don't remember how old I was when I finally figured out I was wrong but I was definitely old enough to remember thinking that for years.

I learned at 15 in health class that women don't bleed and pee from the same hole.

I always sing song lyrics incorrectly, one such example is The Shamen did a song called "Ebenezer good" you would think the clue was in the title .... but no I used to sing "he's a goat he's a goat he's just a lazy goat" not "He's ever so good he is ebenezer good"

I only discovered today that the place in Scotland called the "Peak District" wasn't called the "Pete District" like I had been calling it my whole life.

Omg I just realized we where we actually pee out of and I am mind blown as well! I feel sooooo stupid ? and I'm completely mind blown at the fact that I had no idea there was even a hole there! Like wtf!
I just used a mirror to look while I peed because I literally couldn't believe it. Lol. My mind is like so blown right now!

It makes me sad that children are not educated about their bodies:( please don't let yours grow up not knowing basic human anatomy. Books are great if your not comfortable with the subject, they need to know.

I found out (at 20yo) that you could put the microwave on 75 seconds. I literally thought the numbers were for minutes only. My brother talked about me for almost a week. He still brings it up when I visit. ???

Well you learn something new eveyday. I definitely thought Alaska was like a big island like Hawaii as well. Lol

At 24 I found out cows were all female. I thought cows were cows and bulls were bulls ???

I didn't know that you inhaled a cigarette until I was almost 17. By that point I'd been through 3 health classes that talked about drugs. When I was a kid we used to play with the plastic smoke pipe that you put bubbles in the end and I always remember my parents saying "don't suck in, only blow out!" I thought the same about cigarettes. Needless to say, I've never smoked and when people seemed surprised that I never "experimented" I tell them I don't know how ?

Some of these are ridiculous. Lol
It took me a really long time to learn that errands were just that and not Erin's. My mom's name is Erin and when I was little we used to run her errands together. Only I thought we were running her Erin's, so naturally if I had something I wanted to do, I'd ask her if we could go run some Grace's.
Lol I was about 14 before I learned how to spell errand.
