If Girl teens mature faster than guys then Y....?!?

I would agree tht most girls grow up faster mentally and maturity levels r higher than guys 14-18, BUT

If this was true tht girls r more mature, how come these days there r so many teen girls tht get themselves in situations, sexual activities;making out, 2nd base, 3rd base, tht end up in having sex and getting pregnant.

Yes, hormones and getting caught up in the moment r factors, but mature, wise girls should know better right?

    That is a mindset that many teenagers get caught up in, throwing out all values to live for the moment and get pregnant etc. The hormones matured faster than the values, inner discipline etc.

    Wise girls steer clear of that 'mindset'.

    You can't lump all females in one category. Too many factors. Guys hormones kick in later as their growth in height. Doesn't mean they are all immature sex maniacs.

    True, girls often tend to mature faster than boys. Girls that involve themselves in sexual situations often do so from peer pressure and influences from society. When a girl and a boy are present, the boy may seem more subjective to sex. Girls sometimes hide hormones better than boys. Some just don't think about consequences of sex.

    Because most girls of that age are mature enough to be looking for "love" from a guy; but a boy of the same age is still only a little boy looking for sex.

    Society has convinced girls that nothing is their fault. It is always the male predator who forced her into sex. And with birth control, Plan B pills, and the welfare system, the girls don't really have to take full responsibility for their actions.
