Anyone that f-ed up in the head has no business being around children at any time for any reason.

[Ghost of Philip Marlowe]

He may have been fine as long as he kept his confusion to himself. As soon as he came public with it, he put his issues before everything else. The same considerations apply to boy-scout leaders. There may have been many fine leaders who were a great influence and just wanted to help that the world never knew were gay. As soon as their 'orientation' becomes known, so does their priority.
