Most embarrassing moment due to lack of knowledge?

When i was 11 i got my period...so i had no idea how to wear tampons..my step mom showed me cuz we were going to go to Sea World and my mom agreed to let her teach me. So we were at sea world and i was all proud of my tampon and all...then i was ready to take it out because it was bothering me..i pulled at it in the bathroom..i started sweating and crying..it hurt and it was stuck!! I yanked on that sad pathetic little tampon but it wouldnt come out..so i went back out and was bawling...my step mom asked if i was ok..and i waas like no im not ok..my tampon is stuck and wont come out... what do i do...i need a doctor..she said sweety..did you try peeing to take it out? I said no..um you never told me that..she started laughing hilariously because i never knew to pee to take out my tampon...lol that waas embarrassing!!!! I still cant live it down and shes not even married to my dad anymore!!

lol want to hear another one?

When i was little i started masterbating...well i had no idea what the heck it was....and in my mind i was afraid i was going to get pregnant...for some retarded reason...i didnt really understand how it all worked..i was told about it but couldnt put two and two together...so i put a belt around my waist thinking that if my belly didnt grow then i would never get pregnant...my mother was like what the H*ll are you doing...and i just told her about the belt and having babies...but i was terrified that i was going to get pregnant..and wanted to buy a pregancy test and get on birth control at age 7!!!! Let me tell you when i found out how you made babies and it stuck in my head...that was embarressing!!!

Ooooh Inny thats too funny!!!!! I just recently had a tampon incident......I'd forgotten in. Kinda like yours, but in my adult life LOL.

A few months ago I was on my period and had an appt with my neurologist. I changed tampons, but the new one didn't want to go in right. I think I used a super but wasn't bleading enough. I could tell it wasn't in right, so I tried to pull it out, but you know how that cotton kind of adheares to you if you're not bleeding enough, so I couldn't pull it out. I had to drive all the way to my neurologists office with it not in right, praying I'd be able to take it out once I got there. I parked and went straight to the bathroom, and its so uncomfortable to walk when a tampon is not in right! Luckily, the 25 minute drive to the doctor had allowed it get moistened enough that it popped right out....talk about relief!!!

Oh, yeah...the douche...

I found out what a douche was when visiting relatives in W. Va.

I only saw them once to twice per year. Mom and dad were gone and there was another one of those "weird" commercials.

I asked aloud what that was and boy, oh boy, that was interesting. I found out in a room full of relatives....grandparents, aunt, uncle, cousins. Hmm.

Sorry. Maybe I shouldn't be laughing... but you guys are too much!! Now I KNOW I'm old because there's NO WAY I would post anything like you guys have! Does that count for the embarrasing part? I can admit I've had several of the same experiences but AIN'T NO WAY I'm gonna say which ones!

Lol, my life is an open book. I'll share anything. =) Maybe in a few years I won't be so open lol!!!!

peeing to take it out? i've never heard of that one...

i don't have trouble with tampons, but i know of plenty of people who do have trouble with them.

one thing you can do it make it a little easier to get them in is to smear the end with a little KY or lubricant that is okay to go internally. i had a friend who used to carry a little tube of KY with her tampons for precisely that purpose. another thing is to make sure that you use the smallest size that is appropriate. i often wear a liner or a pad (on my heavy days) as well as wearing a tampon so if i misjudge and it leaks that is fine because the pad still won't fill up as much as it would without the tampon.

i remember being really nervous to try tampons... but i was really hating having to do the two pads thing. had to do that because when i was sitting down i needed one further back and when i was standing up i needed one further forward and i could never seem to place one pad in quite the right place (maybe it simply wasn't long enough). i learned how to do it by reading the little information instructions on the tampon pack and at school (in our puberty change unit) all the girls got a free starter (sample) pack of tampax with this case for them and a little book with diagrams on how to insert them and questions and answers that people have about them and so forth. it really was easier to insert them with the applicator too. i remember being quite nervous about switching to carefree because of the lack of applicator...

I hate tampons..i think that experience i said above tramatized me ...i dont wear them unless i absoluty have too!!! Oh Another embarressing moment anyone? I have tons of them believe you me but this so funny that you guys might relate alittle more too!! My friends and I walked into Spencers...the store that has tons of weird and cool stuff and some of it can be um....sexually interesting to put it nicely. Anyway. There were a ton of really hot cute guys and i was kinda flirting with them. My friend walked up to be and put it in my hand..it was pink and a fluffly and like a pillow...I held it up and turned it around and said what the heck is this...and then i turned it the way is was supposed to go and it was a pillow in the shape of a p*nis!!!!! I almost died. all i could manage to say was..."OH" my friend took it and was dying of hysteria and all those cute hot college guys started laughing...i grabbed my friends arm and high tailed it out of there
LOL

Haha! Gotta love girlfriends!!!!

Does everyone here know that they shouldn't douche?

I was about 7 yrs old in Brownies and we were learning about first aid emergencies and what to do. The leader pulled out a maxi pad....my mom hadn't covered the purpose of a maxi pad to me yet. The leader asked the group what are these (the maxi pads) for? I said aloud...they are for fart stains in your underwear!

AAAAahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I, too, would never post such stories, and didn't read all of all of them either... I kind of hoped it was meant to be about ANY subject, but gather that I was wrong on this one I have stories because of lack of knowledge, but not in this category. LOL y'all tc!

Oh tell us! It doesn't have to be about tampons!!! LOL.....tell us tell us!

I never heard of the peeing to get a tampon out, either, alexandra. I've had slight difficulty in getting them out sometimes, but nothing major. You're supposed to keep them in until they're slick with blood (sorry to be so gross), which makes them easier to pull out. Of course, this is much more difficult when you're having a lighter flow. But as alexandra said, I have heard of using a little artificial lubricant (like the KY Jelly) to make it easier to take them out.

You guys have some great stories! This is a fun thread!

And isn't Spencer's a fun store?

I learned long ago that you're not supposed to douche, and never have.

Before I went to kindergarten, my mom taught me some basic manners. Like "please & thank-you". I was 4 yrs old at the time. I asked my teacher if she could help me zip up my jacket for me. After she did so...I said "please & thank-you (teacher's name)"! The teacher later in a parent-teacher interview told my mom what I said....and they couldn't stop laughing! My mom came home and told me when and how to use "please" and "thank-you".

Good luck getting away with that excuse SeptemberMorn -- remember when there weren't adhesive napkins and you'd get the belt hooks stuck in your hair? OUCH!

I love the things kids say. I'm an only child; my mom had a hysterectomy from cancer after she had me. When I was a toddler, a lady in the grocery store was saying how cute I was and did I have any brothers or sisters. When I said no, she asked why, and I said, "My mommy doesn't have a ooterus." Maybe she explained too much to me when I was a child, lol!

I've had MANY embarrassing moments in my lifetime but the one that comes to mind that I care to share is when I was in labor with my first baby. It was a very long labor and the nurses and doc would come in and out of my room to "check" my status. Each time I would hear someone coming in I would pick up my feet and put them in the stirrups to get ready for the "check." Well, this one time I heard someone coming in and I got "ready" like I had done a million times before. This time, with feet in stirrups, I looked up at this strange man looking back at me. He said "lady, relax, I'm just here to fix the tv."
