No one told me about boys. I had to figure it out myself. The first thing I learned was that sometimes they grow slower than women mentally.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I can't speak for boys because I'm not one! But I just imagine they think differently.
I suppose I've always lived in my own head. I didn't discover boys till sixth form. Then suddenly it was, 'Oh! Boys!'
Boys are so much less mature than girls as it is.
The boys of my people began very young to learn the ways of men, and no one taught us; we just learned by doing what we saw, and we were warriors at a time when boys now are like girls.
There's an unconscious bias in our society: girls are wonderful; boys are terrible. And to be a boy, or young man, growing up, having to listen to all this, it must be painful.
I don't know why, but in my career and in my life, I often find myself in situations where I am the only girl among boys.
To me all men are boy-men. I don't know any man that's actually mature.
My only friends were boys, and I was just one more of them.
In high school, during marathon phone conversations, cheap pizza dinners and long suburban car rides, I began to fall for boys because of who they actually were, or at least who I thought they might become.
I think anyone who has a boy would tell you that they do the sort of things that make you look at them and ask why they would do that. 'Oh right, because you're a boy.'
