Something you thought was true but isn't

Just for the fun of it post something to educate the rest of us who might not be aware of a truth we perceive that is actually false.

Mine:

Bats Are Not Blind. The saying “blind as a bat”, simply isn't correct. The truth is that all 1,100 bat species can see and often their vision is pretty good, although not as excellent as many other night-hunting animals. ... They actually rely on their daylight vision and cannot fly during moonless

Well when i was little and first trying to grasp the rotation of the planet , i was under the impression that if i was to stay jumping up and down all day , then half the time i would be in the air while the world rotated underneath me that i would end up half way around the world for free ,

sadly after a few hours of getting nowhere i gave up !

Much worse than that was Madonna winning "best live act of the year" at the MTV music awards a few years ago!

Right, on a serious note, he had the outward appearance of a woman for less than a year. That's not the same thing as saying he was a woman for less than a year. It's not as clear cut as "Hey, I think I'll be a woman tomorrow" and boom, the next day you're a woman. For us lads in our fifties who were young lads during the homophobic seventies and adults during the homophobic eighties this notion of being a woman trapped inside a man's body took a bit of time to get our heads around. I would have expected that fellas who are ten years younger would understand it though.
