In almost all other countries, the scouts have accepted girls for years.

Will they now change the name of the Girl Scouts? Can boys now sell cookies?

No name change, but "trans" boys have been selling cookies for some time now.

Why can't boys, and men have their own institutions? Boys act differently around girls, and often need a place to just be boys, and have male role models without the involvement of women. I find this entire trend in society disturbing. I am glad I was able to experience scouting before this PC gender crap came into vogue.

That'll be great. That's just the age when boys start to really like girls. What could possibly go wrong?

War on male only institutions was started the day Title IX and other anti-discrimination statues were passed.


What started with golf clubs and other such things because "men together discuss business" and thus females were denied "access"; has now rolled on down to boys as well.


It all fits into the two catch words of the previous presidential administration "equality" and "inclusion". Two things that are liberal/democrat/progressive wet dreams. Because obviously anytime a group of men/boys, especially if they are white get together it does not bode well for the rest.
