It's true...boys do do mature slower than girls. Much slower.-Lily Randall, Radio Free Roscoe Episode 12: Call of the Cougar

As a 13 year old tomboy, it is natural that I might hang out with the guys. But in my confused state of teenage life, I failed to notice that it doesn't matter what gender you are, if you hang out with the guys, they will be dirty sickos, whether you're a lady or not. Well, until today that is.

This afternoon we had movies instead of classes. I was hanging out with the guys, and none of us were watching the movie, due to extreme lameness of it all. Unfortunately, it seems in boredom, most of my guy friends turn into sick jerks who should be kicked where the sun do not shine. By the time the 15 minutes of torture were up, there was probably 1 guy who I didn't want to shoot with a large air rifle, because he was just as disgusted as I was, and he hangs out with these guys more often than I do.

I honestly don't know what goes on inside their heads, similar to the way they don't know what goes on inside girls' heads. It seems to me they are always trying to disprove the old mantra that girls mature faster, but in their struggles, just continue to prove it. Some are worse than others, and some just get downright vulgar. I'm talking physically and verbally, I won't even go into details.

Of my group, two of them like me. One of them is a pervert about it, and is one of the people this is specifically directed at, and I hope you're reading this, because you'll know who you are right away. The other one is much easier to handle, due to the fact that he acts more mature than the others. He can still act like a 2 year old when he wants to, like cases of extreme boredom, but he's usually a lot easier to hang out with. Maybe it's the female influence, as we usually drag him off to hang with us.

So in closing, I'd like to tell the guys to stop trying so hard to act mature, because you're just making yourself look less mature than you already seem to be. You complain that the girls always tell you to grow up: well then maybe you shouldn't try to win her over by asking some other guy if you can sleep with them. So long, and thanks for all the fish.
