It's unfair that they are so binary. They need to be inclusive of the gender fluid individuals.  | |||

Oh my... Isn't that what the Girl Scouts were for? Why must we all be the same when we are different? Although, I must say, I might have been much more into scouting if I could have had a female tent-mate-ranger-buddy. Good luck Sir, I know you can handle it. "We may consent to be governed, but we will not be ruled." - Kevin D. Williamson, 2012 "All the citizens of this land are of right freemen; they owe no allegiance to any class and should recognize no task-masters. Under the chart of their liberties, under the law of high heaven, they are free and without shackles on their limbs nor mortgages upon the fruits of their brain or muscles; they bow down before no prince, potentate, or sovereign, nor kiss the royal robes of any crowned head; they render homage only to their God and should pay tribute only to their Government. Such at least is the spirit of our institutions, the character of our written national compact." Charles Triplett O’Ferrall of Virginia - In Congress, May 1, 1888 | |||

Ok this is nuts... I love Scouts. But these are the kinds of things that are going to bring my participation to an end.

God forbid there be an organization that is just for young boys and men any longer. I am an Eagle Scout and I think this is a foolish overly PC move. I would also oppose a change to allow boys in the girl scouts. The explorer program has been co-ed for along time now, but I guess that was not good enough for the SJW crowd.

Stand by for every boy scout to undergo sensitivity training... I'm so glad I teach my son all he needs to know about the outdoors. Tony. Owner, TonyBen, LLC, Type-01 FFL www.tonybenm14.com (Site under construction). e-mail: tonyben@tonybenm14.com | |||

I'm going to apologize for not reading the whole article first. The link says that dens will remain single sex. So I back off a bit. I'm actively involved with my son's den and I'm glad this little announcement came out after we wrapped up our popcorn sales this year. So many people in our community support the Scouts and most of our dens are affiliated with Churches. One more 'gender fluid' issue would not help us. ---------------------------------- The first lesson of economics is scarcity: there is never enough of anything to fully satisfy all those who want it.

Agreed. Feels like they are just turning up the SJW heat slowly so we don't all jump out at once. ---------------------------------- The first lesson of economics is scarcity: there is never enough of anything to fully satisfy all those who want it.
