The Boy Scouts of America says it will allow transgender children who identify as boys to enroll in its boys only programs.

The organization announced Monday that it had made the decision to base enrollment in boys only programs on the gender a child or parent lists on the application to become a scout. The organization had previously held a policy that relied on the gender listed on a child's birth certificate.

A spokeswoman for the organization says it made the decision based on states and communities changing how gender is defined.

A transgender child in Secaucus, New Jersey, was asked late last year to leave his Scout troop after parents and leaders found out he is transgender.

Well, the Left has succeeded in destroying the Boy Scouts. Sad.

The article doesn’t say how old this “child” is. I wonder why?

So, a mentally ill girl who claims she is a boy will be allowed to join the Boy Scouts.

Pathetic.

Boy scout program was dead already. This is just beating a dead horse.

[ChiMark]

Boy Scouts gone. Caved in.

Unless the Boy Scouts have changed a lot since I was one, “she” is going to be in for a world of hurt.

Introducing the new, “He’s a Sheila!” Merit badge.

The Boy Scouts of America says it will allow transgender children who identify as boys to enroll in its boys only programs.

Why discriminate against boys who identify as feminine tomboys? Only girls in pants and not boys in panties?

RIP. Someone or someones with big money has dedicated themselves to destroying the BSA.

This is just beating a dead horse.

That's the day they let in sadomasochistic necrophiliac zoophiliacs...

[Skywise]

Might as well just drop the name “BOY” from scouts and call them socialist brownshirts.

That’s all they are anymore.

Standards? Creeds? Honor? That’s not important to them anymore.

Pity.

Not every Boy Scout Council is destroyed yet. The activists will have to bait and sue a lot of them. Eventually they will destroy the Boy Scouts, though.
