Boyz II Men

Recent events have 'got me to thinking' about male maturity.

According to general web research, some very dubious looking American "doctors" one called Dr. Sharon; Physical maturity does not necessarily mean Mental maturity.


So, boys mature at a slower rate than girls, and are still not mentally with-it until possibly 25! Based on this perhaps you could say that's why the sensible ladies of the world will bag a man about 6 to 8 years older than themselves, to make sure they're on the same level and not going out with a Teenager.
But where does that leave the girls that want a young whippersnapper? Do we have to make major allowances for the under-25, or simply keep them as part-time lovers, for a casual frolick?

My mid30's bloke friend says it's my fault for going out with boys and not men. Fine. But then he added that it is easier to impress a boy. Am I taking a bus down easy-street? It doesn't bloody feel like it.

Toss-pot Radar

Given my adventures in modern romance recently, I can make the following observations:
1. Men are generally tossers. With some exceptions (some good friends boyfriends), Boy-behaviour is difficult to predict, random and odd.
2. Boys can not organize themselves, even if their lives depended on it. My late dad's much used saying 'he couldn't organize a piss up in a brewery' comes to mind. And dad was a brewer so he should know.
3. Modern technology fucks with your brain. Text and email flirting should be treated with caution. Don't allow yourself to get sucked into the thought that if a boy texts you endlessley; turns you on with texts and little quips about life in boy-land, that they could actually do the same in reality. Beware of a let down in physical reality. Maybe this is the modern boy?

So, the toss-pot radar is back up and running.
Time wasters need not apply.
