Question for guys.. did you feel proud when going through puberty?

As a female who used to enjoy keeping fit I remember feeling very proud and strong at any slight increase in muscle or definition, the tricep line and quad muscles etc

Even though I am only short having larger muscles than other girls (which due to my small frame was infrequent tbh) made me feel good.

Therefore I can’t imagine how good a guy must feeling when seeing and feeling himself get stronger from day age 13-20.

I suppose I wanted to ask guys what is this like for you?

My voice getting deeper was one of the highlights for me. It felt good to be the only one in class with the deeper voice whilst all my mates were still sounding like a bunch of castrated chickens. Good times man...
My 13 year old son has had a sudden growth spurt recently and is now about 1cm taller than me.
He seems extremely proud of this and has spent the past three days referring to himself as Tallson in the third person (a play on words as he's now a "tall son" but also it's a parody of Jason).

So yeah I'd say so.
