In some women there is little pubic hair growth at any time. Such a circumstance can occur in women sexually normal in every other respect. In yet other women pubic hair may eventually grow in a completely normal way but may commence growth at a surprisingly early or late age. In the Kinsey survey some women did not have any pubic hair until they reached the age of eighteen. It is unlikely that this is a record. We may reasonably speculate that some women in their early twenties have not yet started to grow hair in the genital area.

Menstruation, commonly functioning in the vast bulk of teenage girls, may be delayed well past the teens. In a number of cases medical attention needs to be sought; in others the condition may exist in a "normal" but "slow" girl. In the Kinsey sample some girls did not start menstruating until they were in their twenties. The latest instance was a girl who started to menstruate when she was twenty-five years old.

We have noted that unusual boys may ejaculate as early as eight years of age. As we may expect, there are surprisingly late upper extremes as well.

There are of course sad cases of life-long ejaculatory impotence. But assuming that most men start ejaculating at some time in their lives what is the latest age for such a commencement? According to Kinsey the latest ages of first ejaculation reliably recorded "are 21 for two apparently healthy males, 24 for a religiously inhibited individual, and 22 and 24 for two males with hormonal deficiencies."

Kinsey also went to some lengths to ascertain the "age at first response to orgasm." We have already indicated the youngest orgasms for both girls and boys. At the other extreme there are many women who reached the age of late forties without experiencing orgasm. In particular, Kinsey notes three women who had not reached their first orgasm until they were between forty-eight and fifty years of age. It should be stressed however that lack of orgasm is not synonymous with lack of sexual response, and that a very satisfying sex-life can coexist with lack of orgasm.
