A girl becomes a woman when she is fully aware of her sexuality. A good example
of this is Tracy Lords. Her teachers remember her as a non-assuming girl,
even though she already had had sex when she was still in her very early
teens. But one day she came into school, wearing makeup and exuding sexuality.
You can loose your virginity as a girl, but that itself does not make you
a woman. A woman knows how to flirt, knows how to dress sexually, knows what
to do to get a man into her bed.

She's biologically a woman when she gets her first period. She emotionally
steps into womanhood at a certain point in emotional maturation.

I think a girl becomes a woman when as a society excepts this person to be
a woman. As one grows up from a young age whether you are male or female,
you as this person comes to know within themselves what turns them to the
oposite gender and how you this person feels about it. We in society seem
to think that if you are born with a penis then you are male or if you are
born with a vagina you are female. Who determines this? It is your doctor
who says so. But who gave him or her this right to decide if your baby is
female or male. You as a society did. Think about it, after all this person
is a doctor, so who should know better, right. He is so called respected
for his her so called knowledge of such things.

Haivng your first period is the entry into womanhood. It takes many years
for the fully blown feeling of being a woman to happen. It can be when a
woman has her first uninhibited orgasm through an act of love. It can be
when a woman gives birth. So many different events can make a woman feel
as though she is all woman.

A girl is physiologically a woman as soon as she bleeds. Emotionally? We
all have varying rates of maturity throughout our lives.

A girl doens't just become a women, It takes a few years mentaly and sexually
to become a women. I suppose it depends on how fast you mature but,getting
curves and a period doesn't make you a women.

someone said that the first time a girls has the big O because of love she
is a woman, well I dont think so. I agree with who ever said that when a
girl starts her period that it is the start of her becoming a woman. I think
a girl becomes a woman when she thinks she can handle living on her own,taking
care of herself and when she thinks she can take care of someone eles. in
other word when she grows up.

to me, a girl becomes a woman when she both (a)begins mensturation and
(b)understands sex and what sex she is attracted to

I think it is partly when a woman starts her period and partly when she discovers
her own body/takes part in some kind of sexual activity. It is partly to
do with the physical side and partly to do with the knowledge and would probably
mean the beggining of sexual experiences and or fantasies.

there is no such thing as a "man" or a "woman". The reason why is because
our society paints us a picture of what a "man" or "woman" should look like,
act like, how they should dress, what they should feel, how should they talk,
all of our roles in life are painted by a society and when we do the tiniest
thing that does not match the picture, we are beaten down until we get it
straight, and its a shame that we are the society, the ones who criticize,
the ones who judge, the ones who beat others into becoming what we are beaten
to become. Other than physicall features and what thesociety says a "man"
or "woman" is, no one can come up with the definition of a man or a woman.
I asked a lot of people in school what is a mam/woman? what does it take
to become a man/woman? at what age? what is the difference between a man/woman?
No one can answer any of those questions, simply because we dont know it.
We dont know when to become something we dont know about. In this country,
we are considered adults when we reach the age of 18, but does that mean
we are man/woman? I told everyone, make believe you are reborn, your whole
mindset erases, everything you thought a man or a woman was , completly gone,
and you are in a new planet where there is no physical difference between
them,(however there are both male and female, you just cant see right away)
everyone thinks things in a different way, similar to the way things are
now, and I challenged them to tell me, who are the women, and who are the
men. A woman could fall in love with another woman with out knowing it. No
one could say anything. I told everyone that I will admit myself wrong, if
anyone could come up with one difference between a man and a woman, that
is not physical and that is not influenced by society. And so I challenge
you as well. Can you come up with a difference? Ask anyone, and see if they
could tell you a difference. Like I said, I will admit myself wrong if anyone
could tell me a difference.

Did you know that if a father is absent in his daughters life then she will
begin menstrating earlier? I got my period at 11, I had only stopped playing
with barbie a year earlier and I was in year 6. There is no chance in hell
I was a woman. A girl yes.. Having sex is no passage into womanhood either.
Ever watch Jerry Springer? Those 13 yr old doin it? Their practically babies
playing adult games. I had sex at 15, and I am 19 now and still do not consider
my self worthly of the label 'woman'. My partner is 26 and he also thinks
I am not there yet. I think you get there when you become an adult. When
you realise that your body isn't just for 'filling ur pussy with cock!'
Menstration and losing your virginity is not a right of passage, think about
teenage mums. Does babies bringing up babies ring a bell? I think a woman
is someone who doesn't avoid hard work, is not used and abused by men, has
morals, beliefs and self respect that she lives up to, not just preaches.
A woman is action no the wishes of a young girl.

A girl becomes a woman when she wants a man inside her and can accept it.
She should act appropriately, either becoming demure so men will be less
interested, or brazen so they will be more interested, depending on her desires.

technically, I guess a girl becomes a woman once she starts menstrating.
emotionally and otherwise though, I would say a girl becomes a woman once
she reaches a certain point of emotional maturation and truely considers
herself a woman. I dont know if there is a certain change in her life that
SHOULD happen, it depends on the person

to the person with the challenge, I agree with you to an extent.if we were to eliminate he and she from our everday thinking and verbalizing and replaced it with person, peoples, they, them anything other than catorgizing us into 2 defining groups then look deep with in all our inner most voices, desires, and taboo like pleasures and then lived our daily life feeling happy with the understanding that there are no "conditions" and ABSOLUTLY NO judgements casted upon us we would all realize that there is no difference and we each just reach a point when we decide to make different choices and form different oppinions that may through out life contridict oppinions that we formed last week, but only because "with age comes wisdom" and something happened with in that time span that let us understand that our first hypothesis was errorous and maybe we needed to re think our thoughts and tweek our thoughts a little.

I think a girl becomes a woman when she is aware of her gender, had her first period, and is mature enough to handle her sex drive, but this alone doesn't make her a woman, society itself does, whether if they are in highschool, college, or even 30 years old.

A woman becomes gradually aware of what she THINKS to be womanhood when she is treated as more of a woman; this is induced by various rites of female passage, i.e. when she gets her first period, when she starts wearing bras, when she loses her virginity. Things that in her own eyes make her "grown up". Society sees her as a woman when she is able to work, and is bith physically and mentally mature and level-headed.

I believe it comes later than the onset of menstruation - I know girls who "bled" and they were still patently little girls: as I was.
Even the growth of the seconadary female characteristics doesn't suddenly make you a woman - boob, bodily hair. Not even masturbation and orgasm.
I think it starts when the female starts to think like a woman - to appreciate herself as a female person.
Its a long process - not something that happens overnight.

a woman is one that loves other womens taste.Tasting a woman when she is menstrauting is the best and quickest way to become a full woman.Having fill size breast helps develop one to a woman also.Any so callled female can have a big dick stuffed in her constantly and love having that big dick numerous and endless times.But untill another woman has been fully tasted when the other is menstrauting one does not become a full woman.

I believe you become a woman when you realize the full potential of your body, where it could take you and the power you posess, but also realize not to take advantage of that in a degrating way.---"Lips, hips, tits, I am the power of woman"--My Ruin

YOU BECOME A WOMAN WHEN YOU START TAKING NOTICE OF YOUR BODY..EG.. WORRYING THAT YOU ARE TOO FAT, ABLE TO HAVE ORGY'S, AND BE ON YOUR PERIOD AND STUFF LIKE THAT. ALSO KNOWING YOUR SEXUALITY.. YEP.. ALL THOSE YEARS THINKING ABOUT YOUR WEDDING DAY, THEN A FEW YEARS DOWN THE LINE YOU START GETTING THESE UNUSUAL FEELINGS ABOUT YOUR FRIEND OR THE MOST POPULAR GIRL IN SCHOOL OR WORK MATE... DREAMING ABOUT HER LICKING YOU CLEAN... GIVING YOU THE ORGY OF A LIFE TIME.. MOANING IN DELIGHT..HER SUCKING YOUR TITS, FINGERING YOU GENTLY.. AND GIVING YOU THE MOST GENTLE KISSES EVER.......BUT THEN AGAIN, MEN CAN DO THAT TOO..(HAHAHA)

I think a girl or teenager becomes a women when they are 100% completely comfortable with there physicality (physical trates), health, relationships with males females and god, there mind, personality, sexuality, and when they understand what is most important to them in life.......I also have one more thing to add: I think sex is a very important and an amazing thing but it can also be one of the wrost things too, I say this because of all thoose ppl out there that are raped or loose there virginity at the age of 11 or 12 and don't really understand what they are doing. I thing when you lose your virginity to someone your should fully understand what you are doing and you should truly love this person with all your heart and if you can't say that you do I don't think you should do it and you should wait and you propbly won't regret it. you might be mad at me because i'm a guy saying all of this and because i'm a virgin so I don't know what i'm talking about but, I am 19 years old and was one of the most popular guys in my highschool and I had many oppertunites to have sex but I didn't because I want to wait and have it with someone that I completly love, and I didn't have a girl friend in highschool but I had maybe 10 or 11 friends with beifits and have gotten many blowjobs and yes I am completely straight and maybe the reason I feel this way is because I had a friend that was raped as a freshman and I didn't real sorry for her because I always felt she brought it on her self because she was always very flirty, dressed very slutty, and would drink to the point were she would pass out. as she did the night she was raped. that also brings me up to another point I think that if you are a virgin and going to have sex with someone you should ALWAYS be sober and be able to make pure judgements. I hope you enjoied my opinons on sex, virginity, and when a girl becomes a women I also have to say that I love every single female out there with out you beautiful beings we (men) would be no where in life and you females are truly the 8th wonder of the world.

I think a girl becomes a women not by any certain event, but by everything that makes them, them, some people are suddenly mature due to some reason, some build up to it, their a women when they are mature, when they know who they are, some may think, but I dont know my self, which you may think you dont, but really, ever hear no one knows you as well as yourself? its because you know everything about yourself, it just may not be things youv learned, like you know how to move your hand up and wave, but you dont have to think about it, its just when you mature, I dont think it has anything to do with sex, because then girls who dont like guys or girls, would never become a woman, but who knows, im only thirteen

I became a woman after my first sexual experience. I was 16, at school in Ireland and on a field trip. I met this boy, he was 18, working in the farm. We went out for a few days and then when we were in the woods he asked to do it. I agreed. Not a great experience. I just removed my panties, and lifted my skirt. I lay on my back. He opened my blouse and felt mt breasts and nipples. He then got on top and pushed in to me. He came inside me. I would say that I became a woman the moment he shot his sperm inside me. I was lucky and did not get pregnant or any sexual problems.
