There are studies that show children entering puberty at an earlier age these days. Very true.
I had a concusion when I was 8. Later on in life though when all my friends were sprouting up, getting hairer, and their voices were getting deeper, I wasn't doing any of those things.
The doctors found out I had zero growth hormones in my body. So at the age of 14 I had to start taking daily shots of this synthetic growth hormone called Humatrope.
After I started taking those shots is when I went through puberty. I went from being 5'4" at 14 to 6'1" at 16 along with all the other secondary sexual characteristics.
At 16 I stopped taking the shots. So I was a late bloomer as they say due to I fucked my brain up with the concusion somehow.
I cracked my face when it happened. Just a hairline fracture but my right eye still aches like a motherfucker when a coldfront blows in, in the middle of the night.
I'm still of the firm belief that sexual attraction only greatly increases with puberty, not that it begins with puberty. Either that or I'm just the oddball out.
Everything I needed to know about life I learned on Dagobah.
