Black Girls: Reaching Puberty Early

A 1997 study, conducted at pediatricians’ offices nationwide, found that girls were showing the first signs of puberty about a year earlier than was considered normal. Most striking was that Black girls were beginning puberty about a year earlier than white girls. Compared with 8-year-old white girls, about four times as many Black 8-year-olds grow pubic hair and develop breast buds. The age when girls get their first periods has also dropped (though less dramatically) over the past 30 years, and Black girls precede white girls by half a year in this regard. [A MUST READ FOR PARENTS RAISING BLACK GIRLS!]

lol...I was 10. It's so embarrassing being in elementary school and having a period every month.

If I have a daughter one day, I hope she is spared!

Some people think the reason for the early onset of young girls getting their periods early is because of the chemicals in our foods. This affects young white girls too btw.

Don't waste your time and energy posting threads that no one is going to open, nor posts that I don't intend on replying to. You're an unregistered troll who has come here to incite, insult and harrass. GOOD BYE! Get a life, or find Jesus!

I started when I was 9. I was the first one in my class.

But I have noticed the way girls are developing is much MUCH more than when I was that age. I've never seen that many girls w/ good size breast. We only had one girl until I was in high school that had any breast at all. NOW they all do.

In Africa, they place ants on young african females vaginas to make them swell from the bites.

Blacks live in a world of magic & superstitions, logical facts mean nothing to them and you're proof of it. Look at the post about the ants. What does that say?

I got mine when I was 12. I think this is average/normal. I didn't really get boobs until I was 11 or 12. I still wear the same bra size as I did when I was 12. 32A

Thats why r ancestors approved an afrocentric health and female circumcision to stop these complex situations happening to us especially our princesses. We have to sarcofa, that means go back to nature and stop being anti-nature (westernize).

Sister remember to circumcise your daughters. It will stop the periods and is very hygienic.

This is a subject of interest, however, the immature and racist trolls will not allow AAs to have a decent conversation, even one as important as this and also affects their race as well as the races of other women. I advise not sharing any more with them. Don't gives what's holy to the dogs lest they trample all over it. Sick, sick, hatefilled people.
