Why do girl mature faster than boys?

I think it has to do with reproduction and development.  Girls need to mature faster both mentally and physically in order to be viable birthing chambers at a sooner age. While boys are expendable and worthless in the scheme of things so nature has given them more time to develop viable social skills so they can contribute to survival of the women.

i can only answer for myself..hope that is good enough...\n\nNot to be funny but we all know that women mature faster than men right? well when a girl is lets say 23 and her man is 24, he has the mentality (in most cases) of about a 17-18 yoa male...so older men tend to be on the same mentality level...\nnow why girls your age won't go out with you..i don't know...can't help you there\n\noh yeah i am 23 and my guy is 36  ;)

Two factors I can think of.\n1) Male mystique.  Male have an attitude and mentality that they are superior than female.  Male have to show they are not weak and feminine.\n2) Female live longer because they are more resilient.  Their genetic makeup are better than male right from the start in their mother's womb (female have two X's chromosomes XX vs male's XY).

Probably because girls can have access to the real thing a lot easier than guys,so they dont need substitutes for it.\nThe law of supply and demand does apply for the sex industry!

Generally speaking it is a matter of statistics and genetics, and actually statistically speaking men are on average 5 points ahead of the fairer sex IQ wise. \n   In all actuallity boys and girls up to age 14 have no measurable difference statistically wise in IQ, however after that age there is a consistent widening in the IQ gap between men and women up to the age of 45, where IQ generally tend to stabalize.\n    A generally accepted biological explanation, after extensive simplification, is that males evoveled their mathamatical and spatial abillity becuase of the need of those skills for hunting, navigating, and competing for natural resources (think cave-man). Women's 'mental aptitude' on the other hand dealt with teaching, communicating, and raising and caring for offspring (think cave-woman). So wait, does this mean that women are better at communicating then men?\n The answer is not surprisingly an emphatic YES! In fact a majority of studies found that on average women are indeed better at commicating then men, and have consistently shown better verbal and writing skills in all of the basic aptiude tests (think SAT and ASVAB) used. So why do men have higher IQ's, well becuase most IQ tests stress memory and spatial development, most likely becuase it is extremely difficult to accurately measure anything related to imagination and creativity.\n   So what is the answer..well officially its men, but thats what just the book says. There are many other factors to take into consideration when determining how 'smart' someone is than just a test: drive, motivation, determination. Honestly it all comes down to the person...

I do believe they mature faster, especially if the way they grow up forces them to. I am sure she'll give you a chance...just wait for her..

I am not sure that they do.  But they do seem to mature differently.  And there are so many differences between males and females that have nothing to do with nature but rather our culture.\n\nGirls seem to catch on to social behaviors sooner than boys, and I believe that this may be the reason for this common stereotype.  But there are many different type of maturity.  For example as a young boy I was eager to work and serve.  I was also more prepared than girls when dealing with tough situations and trauma.\n\nYoung women may need to be socially mature earlier, because they have an expectation to marry and raise children at earlier ages than boys.  But again this is just one type of maturity.

Girls grow up playing games in relationships.  They have been brought up in this generation to be the player don't get played so they put up a front and throw guys crazy.  As time passes they mature but like they say old habits are hard to break so at times they find themselves still playing games.  This is the reason guys can't understand girls.  A more mature woman will play less games she has to find herself first and find what it is she wants from a relationship.  Young girls don't know what they want and that's why they play games this is also why they are so hard to understand.

Men mature slower than women. Sorry to say, some boys are like that in college too. However, they do mature, sooner or later. It seems like they are so childlike because us girls have matured earlier so their acts seem childish.

No.Girls are supposed to grow up 18 fast and thereafter slow up to 21.Thereafter it may remain there.

Parents cause boys to stay immature.  Society has less of a standard when it comes to male behavior.  Females on the other hand are forced to mature or look bad.  We look bad being immature but are taught that its ok too.  \n\nPlus, most men and even boys don't have the brain growth women doing when it comes to maturing.

Neither one is more superior than the other.  Each sex thinks different and are capable of different things.  We depend on each other to reproduce and to have an emotional bond.
