Four months after the Boy Scouts of America made history by allowing gay adults to become leaders, its local chapter in Northern California is facing new pressure from girls, asking to become full members.
They call their group "The Unicorns." The six young girls teach themselves things they didn't learn in the Girl Scouts, like building a campfire.
"I got jealous of what my brother got to do because he's a Boy Scout ...," said 10-year-old Ella Jacobs.
Jacobs and her friend, Allie Westover, decided they were more interested in what the boys were doing. So last fall, they started participating in activities alongside a local Boy Scout troop.
"I really like competitions and I really enjoy competitive nature and also working in teams and so being in Boy Scouts gave me the opportunity to work with boys and girls alike in a competitive nature," said Westover.

Too busy promoting the lgbt agenda to teach anything useful.
If I were a 16 year old boy, I’d much rather share a tent with a girl than a queer scoutmaster.
Shouldn’t they be going after the Girl Scouts to change first? Or are they so far gone the members are giving up the battle
This is getting to be so funny. The US hates identity and yet it promotes special identity. You can’t be a male, but you can be a shemale; You can’t be a female but you can be a transsexual. The world must be laughing at the United States today
Leave the boy’s organization alone princess(es).
If your mommies want you to have better training, have them start a Girl Scout troop and teach the girls all those things you want to know.
when did they take fire making out of Girl Scouts ???
I learnt that in Brownies...
The Girl Scouts is a lost cause, I have up on them long ago. They are in bed with planned parenthood. I understand these girls wanting to learn this stuff that is why they joined the GS in the first place, that is why Juliette Low founded GSA to start with. So girls would learn what the boys were learning in Boy Scouts. Now the girls are so sappy it is not worth the time.
BTW everyone Girl Scout Cookies are going in in price next year! Yea I actually stand behind these girls on this.
TN google “Healthy Happy and Hot” it’s a GS program for girls made by Planned Parenthood. It will curl your hair. And you wonder why they are not making campfires?
It is for stuff like this that I don’t feel sorry for girls teams that suddenly have to deal with boys in dresses.
Planned Parenthood has made waste of the Girl Scouts. It is not what it was. I will no long be a GS leader until they get rid of PP and all that leftist sh!t. There I said it!
Only if they use the male urinals.
Hadn't heard of this - unbelievable!
I don’t blame you.
The moms of those six girls should start their own club. I’ll bet there are millions of other moms out there that would love to have an alternative.
Let the Girl Scouts die on the vine.
Writing yer name in the snow is not that useful of a skill. Be happy with the way God made ya!
“Only if they use the male urinals.”
Okay you find one IN THE WOODS and I will use it!!
There are other “scouting” groups than Girl Scouts, some of which do teach these survival skills.
Girl Scout Alternatives

They don’t need to join Boy Scouts, they need to start an Adventure Scouts troop there with the Boy Scout Troop. It’s for boys and girls. The Scouts need to be male only, led by Godly men as intended by the creator of the scouts.
