I've seen a few people on here give other people what I believe to be bad advice, based on a myth or misconception. For example, shaving makes hair grow faster and thicker, the hymen is impossible to see, and trimming makes your hair grow faster.
I thought I should ask this to give everyone an opportunity to correct (properly, preferably with an explanation and some research done) the myths/misconceptions that they've seen. So, anyone?
Also, if you feel that any of these myths -are- true, and can prove it, feel free to do so.

I don't believe any of those myths. Shaving just makes it look like your hair is growing faster.
One of my biggest peeves is tampons can make you loose your virginity. Ignorance.
And the pregnancy one, I only had sex once. Once is plenty. Be informed.

The misconception that a relationship is to be-at all times-a 50/50 relationship responsibility. A successful relationship requires ever changing ratios of give and take depending on the needs of the partners since needs naturally fluxes.
That an ideal partner "makes you happy"-happiness is something each individual must strive for and not lay that burden on a partner.
That a partner "completes" you. If you are not whole and sound entering a relationship then you are not ready to have one. You need to be complete in order to give as well as receive. 8:)

My favorite is that when someone asks if she is pregnant and ANYBODY says either "no" or "i don't think so". That's a myth. Anytime you have sex, you can get pregnant.

One misconception is that blacks are cool people. No they're not! They are loud, rude, and ignorant.
Hispanics are cool people.
