Why do Caucasians mature (in general) faster than Asians?

Question

Scientific talk?

I rather have less than 120 word description rather than copy and paste stuff.

Answer 1

What do you mean by Asians? Asia is a huge continent. Your question is asking why people of European ethnicity mature faster (physically, mentally, spiritually?) than people from Asia.

Your question doesn't make any sense to be honest.

Answer 2

they dont....

Answer 3

I think you are asking why many Asians look very young for their age?  When a young man (21) I dated a Japanese woman that looked to be 18 or 19, but she was in fact 29. Many Asian women do not let the sunlight touch their skin, therefore their skin is not damaged by radiation.  They in fact reach puberty at ~ the same time as westerners but, generally being smaller, they look younger than they are.

Answer 4

your question is biased...I know quite a few asians that are my age and look OLD, and others that look young..same withy my white and black friends...all people are different.....

but maybe its the very moist environmet of most asian countries that keep their skins looking hydrated?

Answer 5

It's the climate

Answer 6

Scientifically I have no idea I know that we most often mature at the same rate, however it maybe due to the account of redmeat that we have in our diet that induces some brain functions over others.

Answer 7

Your question is far too broad.  

What do you mean by mature?  Emotionally mature?  Physically mature?  Intellectually mature?

What do you mean by asians?  Indians?  Japanese?  Chinese?  Korean?  Vietnamese?  All of the above?

Answer 8

umm different race?

they way the body develops in adaptation to their needs?

i mean you can't seriously compare people like this

people of different races and cultures develop based on the environment and surrounds

Answer 9

The caucasian skin is thinner that non-caucasian's and therefore wrinkle more easily.

Answer 10

What do you mean by mature? There is the fact that causasian women can support chilbirth now at 9-11, whereas most other races can't until 13-15, which is due to urbanization, oddly enough, and the physical stagnation that generally follows having an effect on what chemicals are released from the brain at what time. If you mean in appearence, I'd say that it's a give and take scenario, I've known enough Asians that look older and enough Caucasians that look younger (Ellen Degeneres and her being 50, for example) to counter that argument. If mentally, I doubt that there is any difference in mental capacity, but genetically Asians are more evolved than Caucasians, so that may explain that. 20,000 years ago the ancient Japanese looked very similar to modern Caucasians, and it's unclear if the modern difference is due to exogamous (basically "interacial", at least in this context) marriage or evolutionary manipulation. Of course that would mean that Asians would mature on a mental level faster than Caucasians.
