“Girls are more mature than Boys.”

There are many arguments for and against this statement. Firstly, this is a generalisation, not all girls are more mature then boys. Girls try to act more mature because it is expected of them, whereas boys don’t even think about it. Girls can also act very giggle and immature round the boy they feel attracted to. When girls have a disagreement. They usually sulk (stop talking to the person they are angry with.) Not only do they sulk but also they drag the argument out for ages, usually crying. Sometimes twos sides can form and many girls get involved. Whereas boys have a fight and it is all forgotten.

Males are generally more violent and aggressive. The society that we have built up treats basic animal instinct as immaturity when it is in fact only nature. All boys’ schools do get results, despite what people may say. An example of this is Torquay Grammar School; it is in the top 3%. The modern myth that girls are more mature than boys is simply based on the society that has built up around us. A society evidently, will eventually be taken over by females.

An example of boys showing their immaturity is a lower percentage of girls get suspended for drugs or bad-behaviour than boys. It is a commonly known fact that there are more male criminals. Girls also mature mentally quicker than boys and because of this they are more likely to have a long-term relationship than boys of the some age as them.

Girls mature physically more quickly than boys. So if you look at it from a biology point of view girls are more mature. Girls are slightly shorter than the boys at all ages until adolescence. She becomes taller shortly after age 11 because her adolescence spurt takes place two years earlier than the boy’s. At age 16 she is surpassed again in height by the typical boy whose adolescent spurt has now started, while hers is nearly finished.

At birth the typical boy is growing slightly faster than the typical girl, but the velocities become equal at about seven months, and then the girl grows faster until four years, From then until adolescence girls grow faster and mature mentally and emotionally quicker.  

Finally, it is a well-known fact that girls are more mature than boys so there is no argument!  

To summarize, generally girls are tranquil and easier to deal with. Girls are also encouraged to be ‘girly’ and they are conditioned to be feminine. Girls are taught to be mothers, ...
