Is 26 a girl or woman?

@JimboSaturn Recent research suggests that the humsn brain does not reach full maturity until around the age of 34.

@SchoolBelle Perhaps, but I believe you can start to be an adult and take on adult responsibilities before then.

Reaching maturity needs to be defined. If that means before 34 means the time when you are still learning and building neuro pathways, that doesn't neccessarily mean you are not an adult.

It seems improbable to me that we would not reach maturity until 34 when that was basically the lifespan of our ancestors during most of our evolution.

When I was in my 20s they said 25. Now in my 30s it's 34😂

I believe it's 40 or at least I hope so. Lol

@SchoolBelle

@Nunki It's like dying. When I was 20, someone dying at 60 would be normal. Now if someone dies at 60, I'm like "that's too young". Give me a couple of years and when someone dies at 85, I'll be "that's too young!!"

@JimboSaturn Yes, we start to mature much earlier - girls around the age of 12, boys as they approach 29.
