I remember when girl scouts used to go camping. My sister did that a lot with her friends. Then lesbians and feminists took GSA over and turned it into an indoctrination tool.
I understand. There’s a very real need for boys to have a safe space; they’re not girls.
But all-boy groups allow members to do "boy things" that they would not be doing if girls were present. I feel fortunate that I was able to be a Boy Scout before cultural Marxism ruined the organization.
this will be the end of the GSA.
lots of nice camp properties will be available.
The Camp Fire Girls began shortly before WWI and for decades sought to develop feminine virtues in girls. In the 1970’s, it became co-ed and changed its name to Camp Fire and is now committed to “inclusion” and “diversity.”
Doesn’t matter. It’s the end of the BSA. In 5 years they will have to sell off its assets to payoff all the pediofiles lawsuits they will have to settle.
How are the girls ruining “your thing” when they have their own troop? I also remember that girls were allowed to join Explorers, and that was in the 60s.
Why is it even called the Boy Scouts anymore? It doesnt focus on boys obviously.
It should be renamed IABSA.
(Identify as BOY Scouts.)
Geez....upside down world.
And thus they are now a girl scouts troop.
JoMa
Trail Life is fake BSA. People pretend it is an acceptable substitute
No Philmont, No Bechtel camp. No Sea Base, no Boundary Waters no formal comprehensive leadership training program no on and on and on.
There is no substitute for the BSA advancement program, none
The antiqueer types have destroyed BSA in order to allow some churches to take control. There are more queers in churches than ever existed in all of BSA
And guess what? Just like immigrants fleeing sh*tholes, and then turning their new home into the same, the girls will demand the BSA change to be more "accommodating" and "inclusive", and wind up completing the destruction of the BSA.
It would have been better if some girl scout troop leaders just decided to learn camping skills, and go do that, regardless of what National leadership pushed.
As foreigners fill this country, scouting (and many other trappings of the America of 50 years ago) is disappearing; groups are consolidating, campgrounds sold off, etc.. The “replacement Americans” are far too leery to send their children off overnight with an unrelated adult, and Americans that do bother to have children no longer have much interest.
Like churches, these groups are just circling the drain; fewer people have the time and/or interest in maintaining them.
“Your comment indicates ignorance and total misunderstanding”
Actually, yours does. The fact you stated “It is 2019, not 1919” says a lot about your mentality that you think time has a factor in gender.
It is telling that you criticize a very peripheral thought rather than the primary issue dredged up by antiBSA types here. Their issue is not Queers but a reason to go after BSA.
They don’t breathe a word about queer choir directors in their churches
You are obviously blind to that around you.
In the end what is offensive about the Boy Scouts not focusing on boys is just that, that there is no focus on boys. Boy Scouts was supposed to teach boys many life skills and virtues. But boys dont get to have an organization all their own. We cant have that. There is no real outrage or concern. Girls and women can have groups focused on their well being in 2019. The same isnt true for the male sex, even if they are children.
