This frontal lobe stuff is such crap. Obviously people develop as they get older but saying that the frontal lobe doesn't fully develop until 25 obfuscates the fact that it is like 99% developed by like 18 and then does like 1% of the remaining development over the next 4-6ish years.
It's just an excuse for people to obfuscate and excuse behaviours
this chud tweet is one of the greatest slam dunks of all time, absolutely savage
If fake "teen brain science" had to be debunked in one image, it would be this one. For EF, the gap between 14 and 30 year olds is less than 0.19 SDs. The gap between whites and blacks is almost 1 SD. White 14 year olds are way more mature than black 30 year olds. https://t.co/Nk3g3CgT4Mpic.twitter.com/nHmqmsPLZY

25 is literally just the age they decided to end the study at.
And you're correct it's an excuse but it's an excuse to towards the female goal of simultaneously having the privileges of children but the rights of adults. Never forget they always walk in lockstep in their plans even subconsciously.
And even if it were true that the brain developed until 25 and then stopped, it doesn't follow that we should set things like age minimums at the highest possible age they could be set at (when no more improvement is to be expected).
