"Every day in the life of a woman is like walking in a Miss America contest. But you lose if you are too plain or too pretty."
In adolescense, there are many different types of development going on, but not necessarily at the same time. Girls mature physically, emotionally, intellectually, academically, socially, and spiritually. Some of the most trying and confusing times for young ladies occur when they appear mature in one area, but completely immature in another. Tall/physically developed girls may have the emotions of children, and abstract thinkers can have the social skills of a 1st grader.
Just when a girls body grows rounder/curvier, she is taught that slim is beautiful. Talk about confusing! She is trying to deal with the way her body is changing, the way it moves and looks, and now, she has to deal with the world telling her that is should look very different from how it is naturally growing!
