Age is a number for sure. But it's possible for two ppl to be peas in a pod at different or the same ages.

For adult men who are immature, I think it's more learned social behavior. The male mid life crisis youth obsessed have to act like I'm 20 forever *thing* You learn to care about certain things, you learn to act in a certain way, to take a certain level of consideration and accountability. If there *is* a measured difference in the maturity of men and women, I would guess that it's probably because we encourage women to display behaviors and possess characteristics most often related to maturity.
Pragmatism, compassion, empathy, patience, organization, etc. Women currently have higher college gpas and higher college attendance in general for a reason, and it's not because one sex is smarter than the other.
On the other side, men are told to be impulsive and aggressive, to disregard intellect and "go what's in your gut" and of course, to be players.
Similarly, many of the guys I know often refer to something some comedian once referred to as "thinking about nothing." Could be coincidence but no girl I know does this. We're always think think think think think think.
And naturally, some people just do what they do. An immature girl isn't exactly rare.

Depends. I know for sure that my ex-husband had not done any maturing during the ten years of our relationship - he was exactly the same person he was between the ages of 32 and 42 ... he still acted like he was 12.
(After all the crap we went through those ten years, and he did not change one iota! Meanwhile, I had to grow up so much that I was no longer the person who could be in love with someone like him ... )

This is an "it all depends" sort of situation here lol. Some men/women fit into this category and some do not. Depends on how they were raised, their surroundings and experiences. That is what shapes a person. I think too, that sometimes "immaturity" can also be a sign of maturity and being comfortable with ones self.
