<p><center><h1>Science Doesn't Give A Rats Ass! </h1></center></p>

<p>I ran across an article about scientist sexually exciting  young rats causing early puberty. My first thought was, "That's gross!" My second thought was, "I wonder if this happens to humans as well?"   </p>
<p>All mammals go through puberty, but science has no clue how it happens, many feel sex hormones have something to do with the changing of mammals bodies and behavior as they mature into adults.</p>

<p>Male and female rats were put in one cage, other cages were for only male or females, which were not separated so the rats could smell and hear each other. The mixed cage rats genitals grew faster than the cages separated by gender. </p>

<p>The big question was in this study, how did mixing genders create increased growth of genitals? It wasn't the scent of the other gender causing early puberty that also caused the rat brain's cortex connected to the genitals to grow rapidly.  </p>

<p>This is the gross part, the scientist felt that it was the mixing of genders that was causing increased growth of the sexual part of the brain and genitals. They used some lubrication and massaged the rats genitals.  And then the scientist compared the sexually abused rats to non sexually abused rats. The study found that stimulating the young rats genitalia was the cause of early puberty </p>

<p>The scientific articles  I have read, which are linked at the end of my article, say it has now been proven, sexually stimulating young rats genitals causes early  puberty. Now there will be studies to see if this is true for all mammals, which I am sure includes humans. So scientist are going to lube up the private parts of young animals and they don't need to do this to humans. We have foster homes full of sexually abused children that have already been studied. </p>

<p>  I wonder if our hyper-sexual environment can also cause human young to physically mature early too? I checked and there are tons of studies that suggest foster kids taken from sexually abusive environments sexually mature early physically and mentally. But maybe the children were touched sexually rather than just emotionally abused? Because I was abused but fought like a wild animal when anyone touched my body. Eventually I was sent to a foster home. I matured late and I had pretty normal behavior regarding my relationships. Except I didn't trust anyone and still don't, especially scientists. </p>
