ravi,
re your post #42,
i still fondly remember, girls in my neighbourhood, overnight shooting in height and stature, and blooming in beauty, acquiring a poise and maturity, and looking at us still immature boys, with a more curious and wiser look.
the early teens of the girls, i think, are among the prettiest stages of their lives, as this beauty is natural. and nature's first blossom in its innocence
oh, to be young again!!
btw, i do not think, all this has disappeared these days. it manifests itself in different ways, to reflect different times. i have seen it in my children and their friends. overall, thanks to more interaction between the sexes, i would say, their teenage is more jovial and funlike than ours, where a strict segregation of sexes was maintained.
