I’m so uncomfortable with the idea that you’re suddenly a woman once you have your period. I was nine when I got my period. You know what else happened when I was nine? Some guy at the local waterpark grabbed my ass. A fully grown adult did this. To a nine year old. And when I said, “don’t” he laughed and told me to change into something other than a two piece bathing suit. I was nine.
Please stamp out the myth that girls “mature” earlier, that there are definite physical passages that mark “womanhood” and thus, sexuality. Let little girls be little girls or I’ll come after you
