Lots of girls go through self-hatred during that period because of the sexualization/objectification of our bodies

Also, just because puberty fucking sucks. I was always the school weird kid, the sort that gets the lock on their locker smashed because "Hey freak! Do you got lizards in there, I saw you chasin' lizards after school" and have never been seen as a sex object (or an object of anything other than pity or ridicule for that matter) by anyone because janky proportions (think half-drowned squirrel but as a person and you're on the right track) plus being the weirdo who is always either reading a book or chasing a small wild animal tends to do that. Still fucking hated puberty and even now have body image issues that gender ideologues would consider gender dysphoria but in truth mostly are discomfort over being unnaturally weak because I have an absolutely janked metabolism.
