I honestly thought that the boy scouts had disbanded after they changed their policy a while back.

Time for the alternative scouts (there are a few in existence now). Combine and Pitch to existing BSA troops to move over. This nonsense must end.

“...these kids getting their heads filled with ideas which will land them on a psychiatrist’s couch later in life are not having any favors done for them...”

And they will be asked to lie on the psychiatrist’s couch face-down! (Rodney Dangerfield ping!)

Seriously, this crap is nothing less than child abuse! Team Trump must do something for these child victims.

I am constitutionally unable to pretend that a girl is a boy, or vice versa.

Mommy wasn’t getting the attention she so badly wanted at the cub scouts so she brought her daughter to the boy scouts. Just because you cut her hair short and call her a boy, doesn’t make her one. There is no such thing as transgender.

Isn’t the title “Boy” sexist?

Scout camp could get pretty interesting since the “boy” would want to use the boy’s shower.

Thankful my son was in Scouts before any of this came about. He really enjoyed it, earning badges and doing projects and camping. They take a nice, healthy outlet for young boys that provides them something to do, provides a learning experience and commaradary outside the classroom and just takes it away from them! Such a shame!

It will be “The Something-Something Scouts.”

The worst parts of this are:
* locking in the children with gender dysphoria prevents the self-resolution that 80-90% experience naturally; indulging someone’s mental illness doesn’t cure it
* it violates the privacy of the boys, just as transgender men violate the privacy of women
* it destroys the whole concept of gender based scouting groups when gender is a construct

I earned Eagle Scout rank in 1960. Sexual matters were not relevant to being a Scout. If the same standards for moving up the ladder (time in rank before advancing, Morse Code proficiency for First Class, citizenship, swimming, lifesaving, camping, outdoorsmanship and woodcraft, etc.) were still in place, being an Eagle and becoming a man would still really mean something special, which apparently is no longer the case. Sad...

the whole concept of gender based scouting groups

"Sex". Not "gender". Living things don't have gender. Gender's an attribute of nouns and pronouns.

Just what is it with this squeamish terror of using the word "sex" to describe sex?

They’re not boy scouts anymore. They’re just potential victims.
