Puberty

Puberty

Every human will (unless deceased or mental health problems relating to growth) reach a stage in their life where they go through the stages and experiences of puberty. Puberty can arrive at different ages for us all, from 11 to 18, but regardless of when it happens - it will happen.

Puberty can be a confusing and sometimes problematic stage of life and it is important that a teenager makes full use of all of the help and advice available to them, be it the internet, teachers or parents.

A common question asked by a teenager during puberty, is ‘Am I gay?’ - the only answer here is, I don’t know, are you? - Throughout life people change and many people are not homosexual until they’re fully grown adults, sometimes even with a family. There is a common debate about whether the chance of a person turning out to be gay comes from ‘nature’ - or ‘nurture’.
The debate is carried out on the forums here; debate

5 Stages of Puberty

Erections:
All guys get them - and it’s perfectly normal and nothing to be worried about, although it’s best not to get them at awkward times!
Erections occur when the small muscles in your penis, which are usually tightly contracted, relax and let blood start flowing in. The spongy tissue in the penis fills with blood and expands, pushing against the veins and closing them so the blood cannot drain out again. If you get an erection when in the shower after gym class - do not immediately (although it may be ideal to look into it) consider yourself to be gay, in most cases it’s the sense of sexuality, not of female sexuality which allows an erection to take place!
