As a man in his soon-to-be late 30s, I’m pretty far removed from puberty.
But from what I can remember, there were mostly a lot of pimples, a growth spurt or two, and awkwardly trying to find myself in middle and high school.
Overall, though, not a crazy experience and certainly nothing that required a lot of hand-holding.
Now, I have a daughter, and she’s starting to go through puberty, and I realize how much different the experience is for girls than boys. The worst thing I had to worry about was an erection at a bad time. For girls, a worst-case scenario is much more intense.
