Boys And High School Girls

Growing up and transitioning from girl to woman is harder than it looks, and often goes unrecognized. From the basic small things like dealing with boys and high school to the human body girls don’t get the credit they deserve because they have it harder.

It’s quite common that girls will have a breakdown more than guys. Studies show girls are more emotional where guys like to believe they’re tough and, although only 16 or 17 years old that they’re already men, not by the Canadian Government, but in their own mind. Often you hear girls talking about situations that happened last night or over the weekend and most time girls deal with things differently from one another. Studies show girls mentally deal with things differently. Females don’t like to be looked at as weaker or depicted of their strengths but scientists prove that if you ask a boy and girl the same question about the opposite sex, their reactions will be different, sometimes completely opposite, not only because they’re different people but because women and men have different minds and each of them handle things very different from each other. Not in all cases but if you ask one girl and one boy what they would do if their boyfriend/girlfriend cheated on them answers would obviously vary, but what the answers are and how they are delivered is important too. You’ll see, guys react more with anger when they’re upset and girls respond emotionally, girls turn to crying and sometimes eating candy and ice cream, and guys turn to yelling or being verbally and/or physically aggressive.

...se men to drop to their knees and “cry like a little girl”. Girls and boys will often do the same thing, but when girls do it society defines them as “sluts” or “whores” for being as open or as sexually active as a man. When girls are looked at for secondary roles and jokes are made about them in primary situations, just how guys are joked about for being nurses and not doctors, or more you find stay at home moms than you do dads.

Society makes being a girl harder than it should be. Growing up and transitioning from girl to woman is harder than it looks, and often goes unrecognized. From the basic small things like dealing with boys and high school to the human body girls don’t get the credit they deserve because they have it harder. Dealing with all the social issues, science and knowledge and how the world works, girls deal with growing up and growing old harder.
