Really, they randomly shout out things like "penis", for instance.

lisab said:Hmm. Yesterday in the waiting room at my doctor's office, the TV was on "The Jerry Springer Show." Wow, wow, wow. That is a human wasteland.
But now I know what those folks were like in high school! Those knuckle-draggers (on the show and in the audience) were definitely the same ones who shout out like this, as a pass time!
Jeez, folks, get a freakin' life.

Poor parenting, and perhaps exposure to poor behavior of older children or adults or cable TV. Presumably it's for shock value.Richard87 said:Really, they randomly shout out things like "penis", for instance.
ideasrule said:I think this is simply a form of rebellion: teenagers have been taught that sex-related words are inappropriate, even though there's no rational reason why they should be. The forbidden fruit effect is powerful and by no means limited to teenagers.
I'm not sure to whom the 'you' referring, but in my case, I'm just old fashioned like the Appalacian Mtns or the Pennines.Phyisab**** said:It's hilarious because you think it's immature or disgusting when it's just a word, and a noun at that without a subject or verb.
Dembadon said:Some people bring their young children and siblings to those sporting events. I wouldn't want my child, who may still be developing his/her compass on what is appropriate in public, to see others exhibiting such behavior.

Rather sad the it seems to be too common.
rewebster said:well, mostly you never know where its been, and they're like mushrooms (usually kept in the dark and some are poisonous)

Char. Limit said:Why are teenage boys so disgusting? Well, SIR, I am offended, SIR, by your offensive statement!
*switches glasses*
I ask you, SIR, weren't you a teenage boy once? And weren't you, SIR, therefore disgusting, by your own statement?
*switches glasses*
I, SIR, have never said this word, this "penis" word, SIR, in public in my life! SIR!
*switches glasses*
And I decry those ephebiphobes, SIR, who assume that because I am a teenager, SIR...
*switches glasses*
That I am disgusting, presumably (SIR!) unintelligent, and sex-obsessed! SIR!
*switches glasses*
And so, SIR, I call on you to retract your statement!
*switches glasses*
(Also, if you're a woman, change "teenage boys" to "men in general")
(Bonus points if you get the reference!)
There are a variety of reasons why teenage boys may exhibit behaviors that are considered "disgusting." Some possible explanations include hormonal changes during puberty, social pressure to conform to certain masculine norms, and a lack of understanding about hygiene and cleanliness.
It is important to remember that every individual is different and may have their own unique habits and behaviors. However, it is not uncommon for teenage boys to display behaviors that are considered "disgusting" as they navigate through adolescence and learn about themselves and the world around them.
As a parent, it is important to have open and honest communication with your teenage son about hygiene and cleanliness. Encouraging and modeling good habits, such as regularly showering and washing hands, can also be helpful. Additionally, try to understand and empathize with your son's perspective and address any underlying issues that may be contributing to their behavior.
While some behaviors may be considered unpleasant, there are not necessarily any direct health risks associated with teenage boys being "disgusting." However, it is important to educate and encourage them to practice good hygiene to prevent the spread of illnesses and maintain their overall health.
As they mature and gain more understanding of social norms and expectations, many teenage boys will naturally become more aware and mindful of their behaviors. However, it is important to remember that everyone has their own unique habits and preferences, and it is important to respect and accept individuals for who they are.
