What was the biggest misconception you had when you were a child?

 Many are there gonna share some cause they are funny.

Answered by an 90’s Kid :

  • Kissing a girl makes her pregnant/going into room with milk and switching off lights gives childbirth

This is because Indian Movies.

Let’s take an example :

Scene : Random Indian aunt advices something to the heroine and sends her in the room.

She is seen with milk and sweets.

Scene : Husband dude waits and they off the light and bammmm!!! in nine months a baby was born.

Just by turning off the light.

But found what happened when biology staffs took reproduction class.

90’s Kids listening to that class be like :

  • If you sleep under a tree in night, ghosts will catch you and you will die

This is the funniest one. Of course I believed in ghosts, because I was a little kid. There were some instances where people have died by sleeping under the trees.

It was again in bio class where I learnt plants release Co² during night and this causes death.

  • People with maruti omni are kidnappers and they may kidnap you anytime

This is again because of Indian movies where the villans use the Maruthi Omni to kidnap peoples.

  • The lorry will definetly kill you if you go behind this and it’s a ghost vehicle
  • If I speak lies, god will take my eyes away.

This is one of the reason I don't speak lies. My mom used to warn me when I spoke lies. I was shit scared when she said this. But later on, I realized that only lies will help you to stay alive and god will punish people who speak truth.

  • Shit I ate the seeds, my stomach will now house the plants.

Another misconception. When I ate watermelon or any other fruit and swallow the seeds, I was shit scared that they will grow as a plant in my stomach. But later biology taught me about excretion system.

  • Keeping Peacock feather inside my notebook so that they will reproduce new ones.

Worst kind of thing !! Peacock feathers don't have a life and I thought this will happen so I kept those inside by book.

There are many but not gonna make this answer so big to bore you.

Share if you have any in the comments.

Spread happiness & Keep smiling
