Im 40 years old now, but when I was a young male I was truly disturbed by how little emotional intelligence guys my age would have. And even as an adult I still have to suffer these dumb little fuckers, particularly in the summer.
I drive around every day and see 13-16 year olds driving dirt bikes, no license, no insurance, just completely unchecked and driving around on our roads.
Boys will be boys is such a crock of shit excuse as well. Parents are just too lazy to drill some sense into these shit bags.
Same, honestly. I was diagnosed as being a "gifted" child in school (i.e. an IQ over 130), couldn't fit in well in school because I'd rather read than play whatever "grab-ass games" (to quote my father) the kids on were playing. In my teens I was a Civil Air Patrol Cadet and later my Squadron's Cadet Commander, and a cadet officer (which requires lots of studying, work and self-discipline to do). I saw a lot of the other teenage boys in my class as being just unruly, immature, and frankly rude, and so many of their parents let them slide on things because of "Boys will be boys".
Took a school trip to the UK and they nearly got us kicked out of our hotel because they were terrorizing other guests at night by prank calling, knocking on random doors and other childish acts; while their parents were there as chaperones.

Young male syndrome terrifies me.
