In terms of mental maturity, women do not mature faster than men. Gender has no effect on maturity. Maturity is determined only by the individual and any set of circumstances that person deals with in his or her lifetime.

If you look back to a few decades ago, women did not have nearly as many rights as men did. They often had to prove themselves which caused them to mature differently than men. Of course, men and women back then were held to a higher standard of maturity than today. This is one reason why some people believe women mature faster than men.

However, women physically mature faster than men do by a few years.

No. although girls mature faster physically boys mature faster mentally. Albert Einstein said that from his memoirs.

Wow.. clearly the above person is a male, and full of you know what. It's common knowledge that, in general, girls tend to mature faster than boys mentally. I would say due to experience that boys tend to mature faster physically. You can find multiple articles on this subject. Albert Einstein was a genius but not in child psychology.

Generally speaking, yes, girls do grow faster than boys, physically and mentally. However, there are exceptions. Not every girl grows faster than a boy the same age and same overall health.

It is said, though, that girls more often than not, mature mentally faster than boys.

It depends. Females always mature faster, just at different periods of time. Example: Nina was 12, and John was 15. Nina was more mature then John, despite the age difference.
