When I was a child, my grandmother used to tell me not to sit on public toilet seats because I would get herpes. I believed her for many, many years. Now I just don't sit on public seats to strengthen my leg muscles.
Another good one was that my mother used to tell me not to wear underwear to bed because I would become infertile. I think she was confusing the fact that men wearing briefs to bed will potentially lower their sperm count. Thanks mom, I don't have testicles or a sperm count. Great advice!
What awful advice were you given?
