In the "normality spread," as shown, for example, in Kinsey (p.123) some girls began growing pubic hair as early as eight years of age.

This is very young to begin such growth yet cannot be considered "abnormal." The real records relate to instances of sexual precocity often, as we have seen, connected with (sometimes fatal) abnormalities. Hugh Jolly noted instances of pubic hair in babies, in one case a girl of only one month old had hair growth around the genitals.
