Hey thats one of most cute and heartfelt thing that I have read in a while. The things that we go through while we are growing up and adding to our knowledge of the big fascinating world. I remember discovering a few condoms in my cousins toilet kit when I was 11. The packets looked like some kind of lollies to me so I tore open one and saw this rolled up rubber band like thing, that opened up into a longish pipe or pouch. It would be another 5 years, by the time TV [DD] reached the boondock town I lived in and showered me with Nirodh ads from the family planning department, that I really understood what it meant.
