Girls Reclaim Their Heritage

Girls Reclaim Their Heritage Scouting for a reclaiming of innocence

‘Bobby identifies as a girl, and he’s a boy,” a Denver mother told a TV station in a news story about her son, who has been accepted as a Girl Scout.

“He’s been doing this since he was about two years old. He’s loved girl stuff, so we just let him dress how he wants, as long as he’s happy,” she explained.

When she first approached the Girl Scouts’ local troop leader about joining, the answer was pretty sensible: But he’s a boy.

But what’s sensible is not always politically correct, so the troop leader subsequently got a talking-to. “Girl Scouts is an inclusive organization and we accept all girls in kindergarten through twelfth grade as members,” the Girl Scouts of Colorado declared. The statement continued: “If a child identifies as a girl and the child’s family presents her as a girl, Girl Scouts of Colorado welcomes her as a Girl Scout. . . . In this case, an associate delivering our program was not aware of our approach.”

Everyone above a certain age will confirm for us that something like this could not have happened in 1960.

I can confirm it, furthermore, when I attended public school, 1951-1963, I never knew of a single openly homosexual person. I'm sure that my school had the average 1% to 2% queers in it but back then they were decent enough and probably scared enough to keep their queer mouths shut about it and yes, I yearn for those "good old days".

If “Denver mother” really loved her son and wanted to do something for him she would stop being a willing and enthusiastric enabler of this sexual fantasy - she has done enough damage.

Then she would get professional medical help for the poor kid and herself so he can eventually return a normal life and she can learn how to abandon her role as an enabler and how to guide her son in a positive direction.

Dollar General stores sells the exact same cookies that the Girl Scouts sell

perhaps the girl scouts bump the price a little because they are conducting a FUND RAISER.....ya think

Family Dollar has a very passable knock off of the chocolate coated peanut butter cookies, but I’m going all the way blank on the actual name of the GS ones and half blank on the FD ones...I remember they have Heaven in the name and come in a red box.

Thank God I never had a daughter. We are doomed as a people with this kind of thinking.

Why is it so damned important to make that political statement that the Girl Scouts take anyone whose parents have decided should be identified as a girl????

I am thinking your question here must be a rhetorical one. A lot of times I throw my hands up and ask these questions, too. However, like me - you probably already know that it is part of a bigger plan.
