The Boy Scouts of America says it will allow transgender children who identify as boys to enroll in its boys only programs.
The organization announced Monday that it had made the decision to base enrollment in boys only programs on the gender a child or parent lists on the application to become a scout. The organization had previously held a policy that relied on the gender listed on a child's birth certificate.
A spokeswoman for the organization says it made the decision based on states and communities changing how gender is defined.
A transgender child in Secaucus, New Jersey, was asked late last year to leave his Scout troop after parents and leaders found out he is transgender.

Well, if I have a son I know one thing he won’t be enrolling in.
“Do the girl scouts allow boys yet?”
Yes, but only if they pee in a squatting position.
Boy Scouts Will Allow Transgender Children Into Programs
I’ve a question. We are seeing more and more of these “it’s” every day. Question;
Suppose we have one of these “it’s” that has committed a crime and the DNA evidence says that the suspect is a male. Now the description goes out but this suspect is actually a female. What does that do to DNA evidence?
July4th - Unless you’ve been in the boy scouts in the last 5 years or so, they’ve changed a heck of a lot. And absolutely none of their changes are for the betterment of anything that has to do with morality.

I’m confused.
Are they going to allow girls who pretend they are boys?
Are they going to allow boys who pretend they are girls but identify as boys? If not, I want to be the first to be outraged at the injustice. If I can remember what I just said.
Im confused.

So are they [Boy Scouts].
LOL!!
It (GSA) been letting boys into their meetings. I saw bunch of GS selling cookies in front of Publix and two of the ‘girls’ were boys. I said, ‘Nope. Never again.’
You can't change chromonsomes. That is pure science!
If I had a son in the scouts, he wouldn’t be going anymore. Time to stand up to the tyranny of the minority.

To say this does not bode well for the future is an understatement.
Great point! Who knows...? Sick and sad.
Does the BSA not realize that they are kept alive by mostly Christian families? Most of my Catholic friends left after the 2015 decision, and we left last year. Our local programs are barely surviving. I can’t see them surviving on his latest nonsense, unless they get a leader with the guts to reverse this regression.
