I went to the Heritage Girls website and clicked around. I noticed that in some of the pictures, the girls were wearing dresses. Not in most of the pictures, but a few.

I then did an experiment. I then checked the Girl Scout website and all their prominent informational pictures had girls wearing nonfeminine clothing.

Okay, no one should be wearing a dress for a camping trip or for a day cleaning litter out of the stream. But it's interesting that these left-leaning organizations want to eliminate femininity from girls' lives. Any ideas why that is?

(I realize that the modern dogma is that any adult male who notices the attire of children is a pedophile. That's ridiculous. I'm no pedophile, but I think boys and girls should be taught how to be gentlemen and ladies, respectively. And that teaching includes knowing how to dress nicely when the occasion calls for it. Flame away.)

Left-leaning intellectuals want to eliminate masculinity, too. This makes it very difficult to reproduce, so they'll eliminate themselves pretty quickly :-).

And I wear dresses on camping trips - much more comfortable than pants!
