Those pint-sized radical feminists also known as the Girl Scouts are in trouble again — this time for their transgender-inclusion policy — and they’ve wasted no time in shutting down the haters. Though the national organization has formally accepted transgender girls into its ranks since 2012, it seems one conservative organization has either just heard the news or has been stewing about it ever since.
“A new Girl Scouts of America (GSA) policy states it will extend membership to boys who identify as girls,” notes the website of the American Family Association, a Christian-morals organization that’s been labeled an anti-LGBT hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. “This means girls in the organization will be forced to recognize and accept transgenderism as a normal lifestyle. Boys in skirts, boys in make-up and boys in tents will become a part of the program. This change will put young innocent girls at risk.” The AFA then invites people to join the 38,000 who have so far signed its petition against the Girl Scouts’ policy.
The Girl Scouts, meanwhile, were quick to fire back in this latest chapter of its transgender-policy saga. “Girl Scouts has valued and supported all girls since our inception in 1912. There is not one type of girl. Every girl’s sense of self, path to it, and how she is supported is unique,” wrote developmental psychologist and Girl Scouts’ “chief girl expert” Andrea Bastiani Archibald on the GSA blog. “If a girl is recognized by her family, school and community as a girl and lives culturally as a girl, Girl Scouts is an organization that can serve her in a setting that is both emotionally and physically safe.

“There is not one type of girl.”
Yes and no. There are many differences but all are xx.
Shutting down the haters? Oh brother. Or should I say sister? I guess I shouldn’t say either. Oh brister or sither.
The haters. As defined by the destroyers.
What does one do when their beloved country has become “silly”. I live in a silly country. I want my old one back.
Enemies take note of a country’s decay.
Sorry girls, I’ll buy overpriced cookies from a less controversial source from now on.
this is child abuse, both to the boy and girls involved, but we are the abusers. What next? boob and penis jobs for kiddies? oh, but no circumcision! That would be cruel
Yeah, well, I always thought their cookies were overpriced anyway.
Transgenderism - “I’m not as gay as I once was, but I’m as gay once as I ever was.”
This isn’t the country I grew up in. I want the one back where boys were boys, men were men, and anyone dressing as a girl was in fact a girl.
Be best if they just shut down, period. Why follow evil?
So I guess it is confirmed that the Girl Scouts do NOT support free speech. Darn! I’m going to miss those thin mints.
I haven’t bought them in years either. But my wife always gives in for a few boxes.
the haters.....the left is winning daily with pc speech control. Warp speed winning.
lol. It is sad though. Obviously a mental illness. Body dysmorphic disorder. Some people think their legs or arms don’t belong to them and go to other countries to get them amputated.
Why is that illegal in the US but removing genitals is not. Doctors have said it’s all the same disorder.
And I self-identify as a magic flying unicorn on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
And as a magic monkey-elf pirate on Mondays.
The people who won’t see me as I am are just haters.
Wonderful post.
