What age did you hit puberty?

[child of lileth]

I had my first sign of it at 8 or 9. Who knows when it technically started for sure.

 

[pope_of_larry]

well i started growing my stash in the 5th grade

 

[Slaanax]

I was probably around 11 or 12. My luxurious beard didn't fully start developing until I was like 21 or so if not older. I find hair on new parts of my body still and my forearms are slowing being covered in a hair similar of that to comedian and actor what his names ummm ya, Wow this is weird I can't think of Robin Williams.

 

[ShoopDaToaster]

Not yet.
Because I am not old nor a clever man.

 

[oppp7]

When he started talkin' shit about me.

 

[dangitall]

last year... when I was 13

 

[capin Rob]

11, i think.

 

[Irradiated Tiger]

Think it was around 11 when it hit me.

Still waiting on that growth spurt though

 

[oreopizza47]

My body probably hit puberty around 12.
My mind hit it at around 6 or 7, and then lost it, and I'm still waiting for it to happen again.

 

[Yureina]

11 or 12 I think. I honestly don't really remember much from those years, I'm afraid. That was... not a pleasant time, but thankfully little of it remains in memory.

 

[EHKOS]

16 when the hair started.
I discovered masturbation at 13. Thank you HBO.

 

[StBishop]

I dont see how masturbating means you've hit puberty.

I was doing that long before I hit puberty. I was a late bloomer. Didn't need to shave 'til after highschool.

Got teased about "Shaving my legs" until I was 16 because there was no black hair on them. My voice started breaking at about... 15.

I was never too worried about it. My parents explained everything to me when I was like... 9 or so. Just in case. They also said that it could happen at any stage in my life. Then my dad made up a story about this guy (I assume it's made up) who was really short and hairless all through highschool then after college dad met him again at a dinner and he was a million feet tall with seven beards.

He didn't exagerate that much.

 

[Argtee]

i was 10 too so by the time i hit 12 i my voice was actually deeper than my dads

Same thing happened to me.
When I was 12, any time I answered the phone and it was my grandfather or another family member, they'd always mistake me for my dad.

 

[Chancie]

Well, I got my first period when I was 11 or 12 but I had to start wearing a bra when I was 10 (that kinda sounds really messed up ).

 

[Blair Bennett]

I took a while, in fact I think I must have been like, 12 when it hit me, and it's been slow going since. I'm still not (or at least I hope I'm not) completely physically developed, and at 16, still have one of the most grotesque excuses for a pubescent female body imaginable. What can I say? I'm practically a fetus.

Oh come on, you're being too hard on yourself. Seriously, I actually am feeling a bit of worry that you might snap or something. It can't be that bad.

No...no, I guess it's not that bad, I mean...I guess I'm not as grievously malformed as I've implied, but I was still mistaken for a male until about age 14, which certainly didn't help. Part of my feelings of physical inadequacy could also be due somewhat to the fact that the majority of the people I'm friends with are 1-2 years older, but even then, based on the averages for adolescents today, I'm horribly sub par. Also, you shouldn't worry: my body is one of the many things I can laugh and joke about without really getting emotional about it. I've always thought it was sort of funny since, here I am, and my entire mother's side of the family (the females at least) were in bras by age 7-8. Many, all of them closely related to me, have even had to have physical augmentation done in the breast area in order to avoid medical problems.

There are upsides though, for instance, I can absolutely rock men's dress shirts.

 

[Miumaru]

I was 12 when I got my period, which was balls because I had to put up with the shitty part of puberty without getting the awesome part of puberty (aka boobs, which I had to wait a couple years for). Puberty was just balls in general, considering that I was awkward enough to begin with.

Apologies if you don't like hearing about periods. But simply hearing about them is a hell of a lot better than having to actually put up with one.

It was balls for the boys too "snickers"
Its a pun. Which is totally clever.

 

[Phenns]

RIGHT NOW! HUMMMPHHHHHHH!

But, really, it was around age 10. by age 11 I had a deep voice, but there was no transition between my squeaky voice and deep voice.
I never had my voice crack once, which was odd. It happened overnight too.
