Male Puberty - What's Going On!

Ok, everyone knows that somewhere from as young as 10 to as old as 15, boys become men. But how does it happen? In this lens we will discuss all the aspects of puberty and its effects on the body and on your life. Some of these articles I have written might help you when you have many questions.

1. Hair!

Its everywhere!!

One of the first things that boys notice when they enter puberty is the hair. It is literally everywhere. In the armpits, around your genitals, on your arms, on your legs, and even on your backside. It might be a little scary, and you might even try to shave it off, but thats ok, hair is perfectly normal. Shaving hair is also normal. Even older men sometimes shave off their body hair once it gets too long.
Dont be worried about what other people think! Hair is perfectly normal and so is the absence of it. If you havent grown any, then your probably just a little late. This is just as natural.

2. Penis Size

Whats going on down there!?

In puberty its not only your hair that grows, but your genitals. When and how the penis starts to grow differs from boy to boy, but before we talk about that, we have to talk about erections. Erections are a flow of blood from your body to your penis that makes it expand and become rigid.
In some cases the penis becomes longer to. This usually happens when you experience a sexual urge or feeling. These can be caused by anything.. and for no reason at all.
Some guys have erections over girls, guys(yes, i know it sounds wierd but at this age erections happen for everything.), becoming naked, touching yourself, or any way of stimulating your genitals.
When the penis starts to develop it usually grows hair around the base, and also it grows longer and wider. Remember, erections can happen anywhere and anyplace. They happen in locker rooms, in front of the class, in the shower, and everywhere else. Dont be worried or embarresed about your erection. They are a part of life, and theres not really much you can do about it.

If your worried about penis shape or size, dont be. Chances are your not done developing. Puberty happens from about ten years of age to as late as 21. In any case, you wont stop growing tell then. Remember, penises can take different shapes and sizes. They can be curved up, down, to the left, and to the right.

3. Newfound feelings

Hey! She's kinda cute!

When you hit puberty, you get a sudden interest in girls. Erections are common at this time and cause your penis too get hard. (Erections occur for many reasons other than girls...) Stimulating the penis with your hand or with any object is called masturbation. When masturbating occurs you rub something against the head of your erect penis. After awhile you climax and a white fluid called sperm will gush from the end of your penis. How much and what color depends on your stage in development.
Semen usually is a white sticky substance, and is what causes girls to get pregnant. But thats another story that you should ask your parents about.
After masturbating, many kids report feeling guilty to a parent or adult. This feeling is perfectly normal an does not always occur. Masturbation is perfectly normal and a part of life. Almost 90 percent of American Men reported that they masterbate weekly. (It's said the other 10 percent lie about it)
An average man can masturbate about six or seven times a day. It takes a while for the penis to regain semen which is produced in the testes, the sack hanging at the base of the penis, before masturbation can occur again.

Before masturbating, do some research, talk to your parents and decide if you think it is ok. Some religous people will tell you that it is wrong, but no where in the bible does it say so. Whatever you choose do to is up to you!

This is an example of perfectly normal male masturbation 

Guys get erections from looking at girls and other sexual stimulations.
