Puberty (boy2man)

Puberty begins when your body is ready - not when you decide. No one ever seems to be completely prepared for all that is about to happen during this time. Learn to accept the changes and the timing of it all - you can't delay or stop the changes.

Wet Dreams

These are really common with teenage boys and a lot of guys worry about what the dream was about. Don't read anything into the dream. Weird/unsettling dreams is one of the stages most guys go through. You can't stop the dream or the wet bed.

It is best to learn to control this attraction until you can share another's body in a committed relationship, preferably marriage.

One aspect that struck me about your site was how it resonates the voice of a boy. I feel that what you write is "true" in the sense that it is neither prettified, nor dramatized or oversold. I see an honest depiction of a young male.
