Hm.  Adolescent High School student Peter Parker gets
bitten by "radioactive spider," in the emantime gets
interested in girls (not to mention photography ...),
starts shooting white stuff from his (ahem) wrists. 
Preadolescent "Battle School" student Andrew "Ender"
Wiggin saves universe from alien, ahem, "Buggers" by
playing video games (cf. The Last Starfighter [1984]).
 Girls optional.  Then there are those adolescent
"mutant" X-Men undergoing traumatic somatic changes
... nope, not following you there at all ...

But Pudding, that reminds me of a friend's friend's
dominatrix roommate.  In fron room of apartment: "One
moment. [calling to to other room] How is everything
in there?" [muffled, as if with full mouth] "It's
delicious."  Not kidding ...
