Teenanger Edit Meaning

1.

The ages 13-19, the 'infancy of adulthood' when physical beauty and rude animal health ironically combine with lack of resources, power and wordly wisdom to create an individual of towering self-loathing and monstrous hostility.

Pity the teenanger and remember what it was like to have the metabolism and beauty of a god, the pocketbook of a pauper, the political power of a field slave and the wisdom of a cretin.

See teenager, adolescent, youth, punk, hooligan, yob, ignoramus
