Stuff happened and I couldn't have cared less. Puberty? If you ask me I didn't even have it because I haven't noticed anything (except for the body changes of course ^_^). But any mental or character changes? Never noticed it.

I don't remember when puberty started for me or how I felt when it did, but I remember when it officially ended. It was a few months after my 19th birthday, I'd just gotten out of the shower and was toweling off I when caught a look at myself in the mirror. I despaired at the revelation that I was still the same 5'2" 98lb 14 year old boy on the outside. I went and found some photos from around the time I was 14. Sure enough, There I was looking exactly the same as I do now.

That was a sad day. The worst part was my grandmother telling me there was still time, that I still could have one more growth spurt. It's been 2 years since then and I'm still the same height. All my cousins are over six feet and my younger brother is almost there too.

So it stopped at around 14-15. Outside of the change to my build and genitals, and some new hair, I got little from puberty.

Puberty really screwed me. That, or I died at 14 and am now one of the immortals from Highlander.

My voice turned funny and I discovered the purpose of that one VHS tape I had found in my dad's closet.
And that's about it.

I didn't notice.

Odd I know, but true.

The most noteworthy thing about puberty for me was that it took all of an hour for my voice to break.

Puberty isn't too bad itself, but the hormones make me emotional which is just shit.
I can't let things go, I'm too self conscious, all kinds of other shit. Today I didn't even know what I was still depressed/frustrated about.

Being a teenager is hard even if you're middle class :/

Not that bothered. The insecurity and sexuality parts suck but the worst bit was dealing with other people going through it. Fucking idiots.

I was 11 or 12, and I masturbated.

A lot.

When I discovered that, I realized other changes going on, but the daily fap-fests (at least 3-5 times a day) were the best parts. Though my parents were too weird about the sex talk so I learned everything about men, women, and sex from porn.

I don't have a squeaky voice anymore?



Just had to deal with the less positive things that come with puberty, such as pimples.

I didn't notice. I'm a 17 year old male currently, so possibly I'm still not noticing.
The only thing of puberty I ever noticed was quite personnel.
The only thing I noticed was my first ejaculation. I had masturbated before and had felt the pleasure of an orgasm while doing it but one day stuff came out the end. I was surprised but not worried. I'd been through sex ed. Was a bit strange though suddenly having to think about cleaning up after.

Most of puberty I only noticed after it had happened. Hair down there, growth of various things. Didn't notice them till a while after they had happened. One day it just occurred to me how much I had changed. If I had noticed I wouldn't have cared. I knew what was going on so I didn't panic.
Aside from the ejaculation thing, I had pretty much the exact same experience.

I was talking to my friends about this very thing not long ago, and we all said we couldn't imagine how anything looked before puberty anymore. Like, we couldn't imagine not having pubic hair. I guess it never really bothered me.
Ok, just gonna jump into this right now, you may think this is strange coming from a 14 year old boy but I don't see the fascination with jerking off, I've never done it, partly because it doesn't seem right and also because half the ''kewl'' kids in my year go on about it like it's some sort of Rite of Passage.
Oh, about the puberty thing, eh not really suprised about anything. My voice hasn't cracked yet so I'm still slightly hesitant about using a headset (I don't play CoD or Battlefield before you start) and as for the hair thing, nothing major except getting into the habit of shaving (I'm not fatally scarred yet from the razor so it's looking good so far)

I was later to start than some of my friends so at least I knew was I was in for.

I didn't grow much... age 22 and still a short ass 5'9. I blame my short ass father who I am lucky to have outgrown by a good 4 inches.

But I got acne badly, mainly on my back and forehead. Reacted by growing my hair to hide it which in hindsight did not help... but it got so bad that a doctor prescribed one of the heavy duty acne meds, the ones that keep popping up in the papers having caused teen suicides through the side effects...

Yeah going through puberty sucked.

EDIT: The beard rocks though. I shaved lots just to ensure it would grow faster in the future. Teenage self, thank you.

It was hilarious to watch my younger brother though, when he was younger he had a really beautiful singing voice but had a Homer Simpson style puberty shift and suddenly the music department wanted nothing to do with him.

I ignore it and block out her lectures. Usually with music since she never notices that I have my headphones on
Well that's one strategy I guess. I would probably have said something I'd regret afterwards like: "Mom! Do you know what matricide means?"

I fapped till I got a GF and then proceeding to fuck her everyday for 3/4 weeks every month.

I grew over a foot, went from 5'2"(end of 7th) to 6'3" before the end of 8th grade, and I cut my long hair because it started to get a wave in it like my mother's hair. Oh and I started shaving the first time I saw a hair on my face, helped with getting a GF.

Well, there wasn't any obvious stressing out or anything, but a lot of the changes were really unwelcome as far as I was concerned.

And 10 years later I still couldn't stand the sound of my own voice.

But considering the situation I'm in, puberty was mostly just an unwelcome intrusion in my life.

It doesn't help that I was just generally a lot happier with my body before it started than after.

About the only good thing about it was that I grew so tall that I somehow intimidated everyone around me enough to prevent anyone bullying me after about the age of 14 or so.

Weirdly, I started puberty super early and then just stopped, it was weird. I was made fun of like crazy for being super hairy in sixth grade (basically no one else had hair then) so I kind of didn't wear shorts again until this summer. So, that's like eight years without shorts all thanks to puberty (and sensitivity)!

Let me tell you, ala journalistic entries:

12: alright! Middle school! this should be fu- AAGGGHHH!! what is this feeling and why is my penis getting hard?!

13: the fuck?! There is hair around my genitals! what is this mutation?! Why am I so ugly?!

14: SHIT. what is this fluid oozing out of my genitals?! why am I so angry?! why does my body hate me?! WHY DOES LIFE SUUUCK?! D:

15: Huh, I'm getting used to this now. shouldn't be that hard to get through high school no- GODDAMNIT BONER, NOT NOW!

16: 5 words, Why am I so horny?

17: wait, I just turned 17, never mind!

Yeeeaaahh, puberty sucks.

EDIT: also, my voice went from wimpy retard nerd to hilarious large ham over the course of 2 years. it was interesting.
