Re: Levels of MaturationPosted by Catherine Cartwright Jones on October 8, 2001 at 17:10:01: In reply to: Levels of Maturation posted by txilar on October 8, 2001 at 15:06:38: Sexual maturation kicks in at 22% body fat more reliably than aphysical age. There are many betrothal and marriage traditional behaviours that include getting as much food into a girl as possible (particularly fatty foods like meat, avocadoes, suchlike), probably aimed at getting enough fat built up to jumpstart ovulation. O/T ..... my father was 16 when I was born. (not an arranged marriage ... just impulse and opportunity). My daughter has many co-workers who had children by age 16. Though early sexual behaviour is for many reasons undesirable, and is statistically correlated with all sorts of misfortune, it certainly happens.
