We always had ample numbers of boy serving at our parish. After the girls started serving the number of boys dropped dramatically. Less than half of the servers are boys now.

This is the problem. You don’t fix the shortage by watering down the sacrifice. If boys know that it’s up to them - they will step up. If responsibility is spread around - they will not. It’s really just that simple.
