Brownies and Girl Scouts were unremarkable experience, mostly making crafts, peddling cookies and chatting about menstruation. The Boy Scouts had all the fun and adventure and were taught lifelong applicable skills. The Boys Scouts are a far better organization than the Girl Scouts and girls should not be denied they chance to be part of such a great organization.

That's because women were the leaders! My grandson's scout troop had mom's as leaders when it started up in second grade and my son-in-law took him out of the troop because all they did were crafts and girl stuff--so it's the LEADERS!

What’s wrong with being a brownie?

Q. What is blue and comes in brownies?
A. Cub Scouts

That old joke will need to be re-written

Because boys will not have the opportunity to be boys...ever. Everything will be tailored to the needs and sensitivities of girls.

Women ruin it as the growing experience for boys it was intended to be.

“The girl scouts have failed them as an organization.”

How is that the problem of the BSA?

In the words of my daughter; girl scouts (brownies) are lame. My two nieces agreed. My daughter and two nieces worked at boy scout camps.

Why can’t the Girl Scouts adopt the programs they like from the Cub Scouts instead of infiltrating the Boy Scouts?

I just don’t get it... There is the Girl Scouts and their younger version (Brownies) - If they don’t like what those organizations do (or don’t do) - then get involved and expand it. But what is the point of taking over a MALE organization?

Then again - is this not just like the military schools that were all male - until lawsuits?

This is why I have cut the ties with my college fraternity - about the time I graduated, some chapters had gone co-ed (under the supposed reasoning that there wasn’t the sister organization present... But now it has completely gone co-ed all over the nation, even when the sister organization is present (and often quite strong).

When will the lawsuits begin to force the Catholic Church to ordain women as priests? Or for that matter - the same in Baptists Churches (at least most of the mainline and conservative Baptists still hold to the Scriptures when it comes to pastors and deacons)....

Then take the Girl Scouts away from its current lesbian leadership.

Scouting was an important part of my growing up.
It used to be a great thing.
I don’t know what it is anymore.

I heard a similar joke when I was young.

I got kicked out of Cub Scouts.....

I'm not going to finish the joke.

Thats sick. Do you simply not understand the presence of girls with utterly change everything in the dynamic of a bunch of 13 and 14 year old boys?

Women will kill the exact fun aspects of the BSA that they have decided to swarm in on.

What is this bizzare obsession that women must be absolutely be allowed everywhere men gather to be away from them and their influence?

STOP buying Girl Scout cookies. Cut off the funding.

Why can't they be Brownies like normal girls? Maybe instead of Cub Scouts, they should start a chapter of Future Lesbians of America.

“Why not let the girls join and benefit from the life lessons taught in scouting.”

Humans need exclusively male precincts. It’s the only way to foster the warrior mystique.

I think a lot of things will have to be re-written. I hope I can keep up.

"What are you talking about? I see nothing wrong with girls in scouting. The girl scouts have failed them as an organization."

Don't you understand that what they did to the Girl Scouts is now what they are trying to do to the Boy Scouts, i.e., destroy it and deflect it from its original ethos, and transform it beyond recognition?

“Scouting was an important part of my growing up.”

Between gay Scott using and girls pouring into Boy Scouts, it is a real loss for boys growing into men.

And yet we allow all female colleges...
