Question to women: what was the incident that made you realise you were no longer a girl?

I’ll go first: I was 15, in a shared auto, middle-age man got in & after a while he tried to brush his hand on my barely-there breasts. For the record: I was wearing a salwar-suit-dupatta.
Question to men: what was the incident that made you realise you were no longer a boy?

Genuinely curious to see how the Male & Female experiences differ on this count.
This is a big one for most girls - the reason I didn’t mention menstruation is because I didn’t have to go through a lot of taboo in my family. I hated the pain, but I didn’t think it changed me as a person, I was still the same girl. Being groped made me realise that I was not. https://twitter.com/idkymeh/status/1308658841014251520
