There is absolutely no aspect of male puberty that attracts the ladies.  What he has missed out on is the burning need to touch them, whilst radiating an aura of greasy hair.

Eh, there's also female puberty, where the girls get the burning need to touch men. It's the same both ways. But both just act really retarded, like "OMG, I've got dust in my eyes and they're wet. (S)he's gonna think I'm crying. OMG OMG, someone cover for me while I run to the bathroom and wash my face. I'm gonna act like someone punched me in the eye, to look cool."

I'm sorry but what the hell is the point of these threads? This is like the other teenage advice ones "Omg like how do I talk to girls! Im socially retarded!". Puberty isn't hard, its a natural change that isn't painful. It might be a good idea to just find out for yourself instead of asking bay12.

Because some of us post-18 people have made mistakes that the OP would rather not repeat, I imagine.  Or perhaps he's hoping to find some people amongst whom he will feel included, welcomed, and understood.

I don't really see what's wrong with it.  People will ask "stupid questions," but there's nothing wrong with seeking out common ground with others.  Soon enough, we'll all find it wasn't such a big deal and we can move on a little bit more.

Plus, you know, you can just ignore the thread.

Plus, isn't being like "OMFG god kid, go out and learn something and quit bringing your crap here" exactly what he came to B12 to avoid?

said all the other kids going through puberty.

I think at this point, its just a lot of post-18 people comparing experiences because, hey, it's something to talk about.  I don't see any "advice" being given, it's just stories.

stories can be the best advice.

I just tried not to get worked up. Any real heat and I'd be damned if i could focus long enough.

It's not too bad. You'll grow to hate your hormones because your emotions will be all over the place for a few months, but after that it's fine. Just roll on through!

On the subject of don't wear sweatpants, have I told you guys the story of my horrible zip-up sweatpants when I was like 12 in boy scouts?

Yeah, sweatpants with a zipper, and the zipper was longer than the cut, so it bent outward.  I guess they just thought I really liked scouting.

That's hilarious.

I haven't read the thread, so if anyone already made a pun about how its very frequently hard during puberty but afterwards the hardness is more pronounced but less unpredictable, I'm totally not sorry because that was just fun to write.

[Heron TSG]

I assumed that the joke was implied by the OP.

My puberty hit late... it was probably between my Sophomore and Junior year of Highschool before I really had to deal with the worst of it. Even so, my voice never changed suddenly, I got an electric razor to deal with the stubble (highly recommended if you come from a facial-hair-heavy family), and kept my brain engaged lest I start thinking with something other than it. It kinda sucked not having a male parent around the house at the time, because I had to find out most things slyly, through friends and peers. Even so, I was through it soon enough, and on with the rest of my life... and I got a rather snazzy beard for it.

But yeah, just keep a level head and let what happens happen. Try to remember that most everyone goes through the same thing, and there's nothing you can do to change it; just concentrate on what you need to do in school and life, and the awkward weirdness will pass soon enough.

Oh man, there's this part in puberty where you have to gnaw off your own foot. I am not joking. And you never know when you're going to have to. It just happens.

[Zangi]

Hard?  On a scale of Easy, Normal and Hard....    its rated Insane.


As for puberty? 
I believe I've been too occupied playing games and being a loner to really care about or notice the changes going on with me. 
Never really had much of a zit/acne problem.

Yea, I wasted my early years.  Just like I'm doing now.

[eerr]

To waste, you must have missed something better.

did you?

Won't know till I go back in time and alter things now would I?

This is true.

This is probably my favorite response ever. I literally couldn't stop laughing.
