Here's a link - would have been nice to have one in the OP:

The Boy Scouts isn't going anywhere. It's just changing its name to reflect the fact that all youth are welcome.

I understand the desire for and the benefits of gender-specific scouting groups, but I think for BSA that ship has sailed.

They've been dead for a while. Luckily, there are several replacements.

Pretty late in the game, but good for the scouts.

Then we don't want to hear any complaints when men and boys invade women and girl's spaces.

No, they just have a different name and accept girls. The organization still exists.

It's interesting that woke adults always seem to want to integrate the sexes (with youth). Unless something has drastically changed over the years, little boys tend to want to play/game with little boys. And little girls tend to want to play/game with little girls. When I was a young boy, girls were considered "icky" and being called "girly" was an insult. I'm sure little girls had similar tendencies. But wokes do not want to let children be children. They want to sexualize them and "adultify" them as soon as they are able to talk.
