I didn't care about puberty, but mostly because I had bigger problems, like being bullied. By the time that was over, I was 14 and mostly adjusted to the whole hormone thing.
Puberty: How did you react?
- Thread starter Jonluw
- Start date
Meh, didn't care. For the most part, I didn't realize what was happening, but the effects weren't particularly noteworthy. Hey, spontaneous erections, I've had you before. Hey, pimples, I've had you before. The body hair was significant, but I really didn't notice, since the various areas seemed to grow in at different times. I was more concerned with the faint mustache I had coming in. I didn't really consider any of this "puberty" until
I remember thinking "So this is puberty." Also, this could become potentially annoying. And it did, until I figured out how to relieve these fluids while conscious.
my first wet dream. Muhammed Ali threw me into a swimming pool, while I was wearing a long shirt and no pants or underwear. I felt the cold water on my undercarriage, and then bam, I had to go change my pants.
I more or less deduced puberty before I knew what either of those words meant. My memory is a bit fuzzy, but after giving a few second's remembrance on how I thought as a kid, I imagine my reasoning was something like this, albeit less structured:
1. Dad is a human.
2. Dad is older than me.
3. Dad is big, deep voiced, and hairy.
4. I am a human.
5. I am young.
6. When I age, I will get big, deep voiced, and hairy.
Lo and behold, I was right.

didn't really care much about it, didn't notice much except hair and that I liked to stare at things a lot.
Something like that happened to me:Jared Domenico said:
1. Dad comes from a tall family
2. Hence, I'll be tall too
3. Wait, mom comes from a short family
4. Skip 10 years forward and you'll find me smaller than Tom Cruise
5. CURSES!
6. Also, early bald pattern cortesy of moms & dad's family.
I cracked on with it... (read: cracked one off regularly til I realised it wasn't just meant for me!!!!) Voice broke, people laughed... I learnt to crack one off... Bargain if you ask me!!

I really don't want to admit this, but the breasts were the first sign. By the time I was 14, my breasts were fully developed, and I was wearing baggy sweaters to cover them because people twice my age were hitting on me because they thought I was much older.
I covered my acne with makeup and started wearing Proactiv around 15. I gained a bit of weight, and I didn't grow very tall. I maybe shot up to 5'3" from 4'10". The doctor said that I would reach 6', and even though I will not technically stop growing until I'm 23, I do not think that I will grow much taller.
I felt very embarrassed around the other girls because most of them were very fit. I had been picked on for being chubby my whole life, and it did not stop in high school. I also had a problem with sweating. I often had to carry two extra shirts in my school bag. The sweat never seemed to have a scent, so that was one way I was lucky.
