Teenagers are no more subject to hormone-induced mood swings or psychological states than any other age range. It was a popular theory among adolescent behavioural endocrinologists in the eighties, but it has been since put to rest as a myth.

Of course, bigots are always looking for a biological essentialist way to justify oppression, and so the 'teen brain' theories have moved in to take over for the hormones.
