Hmmm, I don't knowabout this one: "MYTH501. | The pull out method during sex is an unreliable birth control method. Recent studies have found that the pull out method, if used perfectly, has a 96% success rate. On the other hand, when it's used improperly, the pull out method has a 82% chance of success, while condoms that fail have a 83% chance of success."

MYTH450. | Most people have sex before the age of 16. Only around 30% of people have sex before the age of 16, and this statistic hasn't changed in the last decade.

MYTH418. | The free market can solve all problems. Capitalism, when left by itself, will pursue profit maximization and nothing else. This will naturally turn into monopolies and unregulated monopolies mean small wages, little employment, consumer loss, and increased inequality.

MYTH257. | Panthers exist. Panthers aren't any specific animal. Any cat that can roar, such as tigers, lions and jaguars, are considered panthers.

MYTH316. | Some people don't have dreams when they sleep. Everyone has dreams, some people just don't remember theirs. In fact, the average person has about nine dreams every single night.

MYTH 98. | You swallow eight spiders a year in your sleep. This myth was faked as part of an article about how easy it is for a convincing sounding "fact" to be accepted as true.

MYTH 61. | Caffeinated drinks dehydrate you. If you were only consuming caffeine, it might dehydrate you to some degree but the water that is contained in most caffeinated drinks offsets that effect.
