    13 and a half. I stopped growing taller last year. Late to start and late to finish.
    Whatever you do don't spend too much time comparing yourself to others.

    13, and it hit me like a ton of bricks. I had bad acne, a beard, and started noticing boys in a matter of months

    Probably around 12 or so. Never really had bad acne thank goodness...but the facial hair! I looked like a werewolf. I still have to shave like every other day because my facial hair grows in so rapidly.

    10 is when Puberty started for me.
    First sexual experience, 14 with another 14 year old, we where hormonal and curios and both guys, he now considers himself straight, I was in love with him for the longest time.
    Also that is the only person I have ever done any thing with.

    Puberty and my teenage years felt like a swirling pool of emotional and hormonal confusion, where I had feelings and thoughts, I ended up repressing and so I ended up becoming very withdrawn from my peers and I never talked to any one.
    I was seen as the shy mysterious kid whom the girls unbeknownst to me at the time thought was hot. It wasn't till I was an adult that some one I went to school with told me they all had crushes on me at some point even some of the other guys, which blew my mind away, because I didn't think any one liked me, I thought they all thought I was weird. She told me every one found me unapproachable except a few people and that since I hung out with the Emo, and Goth people, they assumed I had a temper so no one bothered me thinking I was a "bad boy of some kind." I was surprised when she told me that, I would never hurt any one unless they attacked me or some thing first.

    After Puberty, when I was a teenager, I had become accustomed to repressing my emotions and thoughts, bottling things up, and isolating my self from most of my peers. I made a few friends in High School but back then I was confused about my Orientation and since I didn't know their was a word for Gender-Fluid and since I was raised to believe in the Gender-Binary in Christian upbringing I was also not sure about my gender,
    As I grew older I repressed those feelings and tried to forget about them,
    some times I would socialize over the years but I hardly ever would let people in emotionally.

    Recently, I was doing a lot of thinking, and in an emotional state wishing for romance and I was thinking about myself, before I had ever seen the movie frozen, a friend made me watch the song's "Do you want to build a snow man?" and "Let it Go." After years of self-denial, and repression that song alone while I was already in a depressed mood, broke through my emotional wall and I cried as I listened to it, at the time I didn't tell him why, it wasn't until a week later that I came out to my best friends, and two weeks later that I told them I realized I am gender-fluid.

    I refuse to allow my Social Anxiety to rule my life, I will not sit in my bubble any longer, nor be quite all the time, I have been the one sitting and listening to every one else long enough, now it's their turn to sit down and listen to me. Sighs, sorry for ranting.....

    First puberty at 11-12? I barely remember. Stuff happened to my body, I tried not to think about it.

    Second puberty still to come.

    About 12, but the greater changes happened at 13. They were very unexpected.

    First lot of puberty came at around 13-14. Growth has been slower since, but I'm hoping for the final boy-to-man growth to come in the next two or three years.

    12 and a half, that's when I got my first period. I was pretty upset. I sat down and calculated approximate number of days in my life I'd have to deal with periods.
