When did you enter puberty?

Try 12 going into 13. When we were at Mass in church and I was kneeling, I would get such a hard on I could levitate!!! That bastard would stick out like a 30-30 model 94 Winchester!!" 'Bitch was when we had to stand up and march out of church and it wouldn't go away!!! To this day, the girls(Now Grandmothers and still my good friends) on the other side of the isle noticed and they still smile at me...........knowing!!!!!!! I don't want to do the math on how many years ago that was!!! It would scare me...lets' just say,......Kennedy wasn't even elected yet!!!!!!

You just have to be kidding??,

No, I'm not!!,

Yes and I always wondered how many of them had "wet panties" walking out of church on the other side of the isle next to me!!! If the Nuns only knew?? Speaking of which, I wonder often of what got into that "Habbit!!!"

hehehheheehee!!!,

I'm quite sure they knew all too well. Supposedly practicing abstinence, I would guess they were obsessed with sex, had it on their minds constantly and saw instances of sexual goings-on in virtually everything, however innocent. I remember being very naive as a kid at parochial schools and many of the nuns practices or remarks went over my head, since I had no inkling what they were referring to or implying whenever they thought they spotted something 'sexual' ... later my penny dropped, but that was much later.

I think that far too many of them had the naughtiest if not downright dirtiest thoughts of all ... don't underestimate the effects of imposed abstinence. It's not healthy for the body or the mind ...

Agracier, it is interesting to hear a European take on the French situation and Belgium’s issues with the Dutch. I really have no animosity with anyone from France even though I do like to joke about them. I understand from people who have visited and lived in Paris that it is a wonderful city that is unfortunately full of Parisians. Sort of like in the United States we say New York would be a great place if you just got rid of all the New Yorkers. Oh boy, now I am going to get shit from all the New Yorkers.

I started growing pubic hair at 12, armpit hair around 12.5.

I believe it was around 11 or 12. I can't remember exactly. I do remember getting erections in elementary school around 4th or 5th grade and wasn't totally aware of what was going on.

I started having erections about ten or so and by the seventh grade was wearing my shirts untucked because I couldn't control. them. I grew pubic and axillary hair when I was twelve or so. I started shaving when I was fourteen. I'm glad I don't have such easy erections and ejaculations as when I was that age because I would have been useless as a lover. I was still useless at sixteen when I finally got laid for the first time.

Agracier, funny about the Nun's?? Way back when I was in Catholic school, only the girl's wore the blue and white uniforms. The Boy's classic kakki uniforms didn't get invoked till after I left and went to public high school. Meanwhile back inn Catholic school the boys could wear what they wanted, just about any kind of pants, jeans but,"NO LEVI"S!!!!!!" And my "niiave" self couldn't understand why??? Hell, we were "pre- pubescent" in grade school (till the last year o two) !! Well it seems the Nun's thought the Levi's jeans with their low-cut waist were "Sexually Suggestive and would make the girls horny!!!!!" Also, we had to wear "Belts" with all pants/jeans!! God would the Nun's go off if they saw a boy with "No Belt" on!!!!! They would yell and scream like the kid was the "Incarnation of Lucifer himself!!" flailing their arms, screaming and one could see the blood vessels in their forehead throbbing against their headdress!!! Somehow, we survived............hehehehee!!!!! and now here we are on Zity today!!!!!!! 'Sure feels good to tell this story, only it's not a "Story!!"........It is all "TRUE!!"

In my American Catholic school days - the 1950s-early 60s - the boys were made to wear a hideous green colored uniform with 'gold' insignias on the ties and breast pockets. Calling the colors green and gold are courtesies however. Puke green and diarrhea yellow would be better descriptions ... ha ha.

These colors were chosen out of consideration for the Irish element in the schools of course. Green for Irish Catholicism and the gold I suspect as something Papal. Whatever.

In the Belgian Catholic schools I went to, very surprisingly and to my great relief, there were no uniforms. Praise the heavens! Blue was 'suggested' as an overall color theme, especially for overcoats - no loud colors preferably, certainly no socialist red (ha ha) but in those days clothes were drab anyway. Jeans of any kind at all were of course forbidden, being an American hedonistic piece of apparel - that's what Beatniks and hippies wore, not good Catholic boys. But overall there was little to choose from anyway - one wore blue or brown tints, maybe something in gray and that was it.

I am pretty sure puberty occurred for me when I was 13. I remember I was just starting the 7th grade and all the boys seemed to be fascinated with sex at that time- me included. The growth of pubic hair and the ability to ejaculate as I can remember came at this time. I remember seeing some of the boys in the gym shower and they too had pubic hair.

For me, it is difficult to tell when I hit puberty.

The enemas Mommy Dearest gave me from before I could talk kind of set the stage for precocious sexuality, butt being raised Irish Catholic really messed things up. 'Forbidden but 'greatly attractive' was a real mindfuck.

I am still working through all that stuff.

I am happy to know that some of the folk here on Zity.biz have navigated puberty without excessive drama.

I started puberty pretty early. I got my first period when I was 9, and I was the tallest person in my class until 7th grade. I developed underarm and pubic hair when I was about 11. Yeah, I was hairy pretty early on.

I am a true blonde with very fine hair. I didn't get my first period until I was late 13 and as far as pubic hair goes it was never a bush more like a thin carpet and armpit hair little. I was always trying to keep up with my sister and I was scared something was wrong.

Puberty eased it's way into my life. I had to start shaving at 11, and I was already having nocturnal emissions since I was about 8 or nine. My voice changed at 12, and believe me when I say that I wish I could have some of those years back again. I would do some things differently. Anybody else feel that way?

I got my periods on the last day of my 6th grade. And my pubic hairs were very fine not bush untill at the age of 14 i shaved and in one full month i had a "big black bush"

I still dont understand why i shaved those fine fine hairs.

I was a major LATE bloomer----just started pubes at about 17-18yo----and I never grew underarm hair at all-(neither did my father)---kind of embarasing in the HS showers----I mastered the art of changing and showering with a towel in front hiding hiding my shame.----I was also the shortest kid (boy) all thru school and usually last to get picked for a team

Most things started growing when I was 12. That was the age when I started to grow pubic hair, and my penis and testicles began to grow. Underarm hair came a bit later, I didn't grow any until I was in 8th grade, so I had turned 13 before it started growing.

I was middle of the road I'd say- by 13 had some noticeable hair in both places. Before I was 15, my penis and balls were pretty much fully developed like an adult.

Don't fret. The shaving didn't cause that to happen.

Shaving ABSOLUTELY DOES NOT affect hair growth. The feeling of fine hairs becoming bristle like is due to the cut hairs having square cut ends and new forming hairs have a thin tapered end.

Your hormones just happened to turn on full blast causing your bush to grow.

A older brother of a friend of mine, taught us how to masturbate. I started doing it at age 8. During my 9th year, I started using a fountain syringe while I masturbated. At my appendectomy (age 12) I had a full bush of pubic hair that was shaved off of me before surgery.

I started early. I was 8 almost 9 when I got my first period. Scared my Mom because she hadn't thought she would be explaining things that soon, caught her off guard. I had pubic hair and started shaving armpits and legs by 9 or 10. I was the tallest in my class until 8th grade. I haven't grown any taller since I was 11.

I was 13 before I hit puberty . Ginger pubes, quite fine not easy to see, although subsequently very bushy. I was one of the last in the class , as I kept on seeing during communal showers. I was also the youngest in class, but I do remember feeling quite inadequate compared to some very hairy guys in class. Chest ass and groin hair!

This is tough for me to remember. I was 12 when I started noticing the hair under my arms. I'm pretty sure I was 13 when my pubic hair started coming in. At first it was very fine/light and reddish in color. It became darker.

I remember specifically as my testicles grew the hairs were whispy but grew much longer than the pubic hair above and around my penis. I was always very nervous to shave them. I had an electric razor for my very fine facial hair and I tried to use it on my testicles -- that did NOT go well!

I do remember breaking my arm around that age and having a cast above my elbow so my arm was immobilized. I was terrified that either of my parents would see my little pubic hair while helping me shower immediately after the injury. Thankfully they helped me put my arm in a waterproof bag and left me to slowly shower on my own.

I don't remember exactly. I recall feeling really embarrassed when I noticed my first fine pubic hairs. Even though I was eager to be grown up and mature, I hated the idea and quickly shaved it. Not long after that, I remember a kid at camp bragging about getting pubic hair and, when some other kids didn't believe him, showing off an even more sparse amount than I had just shaved. After that, I just let it grew in and accepted it as a part of growing up. Underarm hair was similar, but it took longer for me to notice any. I remember playing basketball in 5th grade or so and wearing tank top uniforms. Some of us wore t-shirts underneath because they were more comfortable, but others -- especially those who had hair under their arms -- just wore the tank tops.

I guess the process feels much more gradual for boys than it is for girls. They get a dramatic (and often traumatic) first period while we get gradual growth of certain body parts and a little more hair in different places over time. Reading about puberty changes as a kid, I fully expected a sudden overnight change in the size of my genitals but I never noticed a change the same way I never noticed the way my hands grew as I got older.

I had erectons for as long as I could remember. The erections intensified as I reached 10 and in 5th grade. My penis was not large so it would not show easily in my pants while in school. I didn't know if other boys were getting erections. It seemed that sexual discussions weren't freely brought up. I had a few hairs around the pubic area, very light which with time lengthen, grew coarser and thicken. I had my first ejaculation near my 11th birthday, didn't know what that was about. When I was 11, my erections were becoming more obvious as my penis had begun to lengthen and thicken.In 7th grade, we began to have showers after PE. My observations from that first group shower I had with 10 other boys is that everyone was at various stages of puberty development. I was a year younger than my classmates. I appeared to be further along than some. Some had as much pubic hair as I did but their penis was not as developed, some looked more like mine when I was 10. We had some hair on our armpits. One boy was very behind in his development. His penis and scrotum looked like they belonged to a 5 year-old. Another boy developed an erection while in the shower with us. He had a long thin penis. 7 of the boys were circumcised. One was uncircumcised and looked like his foreskin was kept retracted continuously. My voice thicken to pretty much what it is now by the time I reach 15. The growth of my genitals was complete by age 16. In passing years, I've noted that my penis although seized growing in length icontinued to thicken. My final size was an average 6" by 5.25".

I don't even recall exactly! The event I remember best is my surprise at my first ejaculation in my hand.

Aroung age 12.5

I also recall my first attempt at shaving. I had forgotten to use foam - I had not been explained the details of the process. Pain ensued.

I was age 10 when pubic hair first appeared, which is on the young side for a boy.

I think I was a little late.... Tufts of hair in ninth grade.... Never did get very hairy... All soft, blond or light brown... Nice amount on chest but that did not show up until my late 20s... Have almost no armpit hair (little jealous of those who have that)... Penis and testicular size grew pretty dramatically in high school which was nice since I had so little hair... At least I could shower after P.E. With only the standard level of mortification.
