It's not caused by racism!
It's caused by climate change! 🤡
It’s not Climate Change. Don’t be ridiculous. Joe Biden signed an executive law to lower the age of puberty.
Of course...
I thought it was caused by hormone laced chicken, or milk.
Safe and effective.
This has been known for at least 30 years.
The change this century has been a calorie change. People in the 20s and thirties ate much less than they so today. Parenting philosophy was about strict standardized mealtimes. Less calorie and vitamin intake led to smaller people.most of us are much larger than out great grands.
Menarch is precipitated by weight and fat content of the female. Rule of thumb has been approximately 103 pounds. I suspect it is less recently. Signs of puberty such as breast swelling and pubic and axillary hair is beginning as early as ages 6 or 7 and the threshold for precocious puberty had dropped to ages 4 or 5.
There may be things about this we don’t understand and don’t know causes of.
For example, I recall hearing years ago, that groups of college girls living in dorms were cycling together. The report at that time was that it was a mystery why that happened.
This again? Doctors were claiming the same thing back in the 1960s!
Girls? How about boys? I remember when boys didn’t ever get periods, but now I’m a misgendering phobe of the worst sort.
It’s all Trump’s fault.
Where does it say that in the journal?
They don’t at all say “racism” causes this.
If it were all girls, it would be climate change. Otherwise, racist.
I could be a scientist.
I blame SNAP.
I learned this in medical school 40 years ago.
It is nutrition. Kids on modern high protein diets are taller and mature earlier than in medieval days or even 100 years ago.
No, they need to transition sooner to correct this.
