So does the girl scouts have to accept boys now? Is there gonna be a merger? When they go camping, do they separate the girls and boys? Also why? This is probably good for parents who have multiple kids so they can bring them all to the same place.
They're two completely separate organizations. The girl scouts can do what they want.
It'd be great if humanity would get better at collectively making group decisions and deciding on leadership. Turns out that we all hop on the Nash equilibrium of pursuing individual desires instead.
Oh, also, the Boy Scouts have been letting in girls for a while now. I would assume they get separate tents but I don't actually know because I'm not actually involved with the organization. But, girl members have been fairly common and this is really just a name change.
Not only separate tents, but the boys' tents are grouped together and girl tents are grouped together with the adult tents in between those two groups. There also must be at least 1 adult of each sex.
More accurate is more better.
~~The Girl Scouts started accepting boys years before~~ the boy scouts started accepting girls around ~~10~~ 6 years ago.
They had boys and girls in different tents to prevent them from having sex. I'm not sure how they deal with lgbt scouts.
Edit: Boys Scouts first allowed girls into Venturing, a program for those 14-21st birthday. Girls were allowed into Boy Scout troops and in Cub Scouts in 2018.
Cis boys aren't allowed in Girl Scouts.
The Girl Scouts absolutely do not accept cis boys.
I thought I had remembered them allowing some boys. I know of a male girl scout leader.
I'll edit that part.
They accept trans boys, trans girls, and nonbinay kids. So they do allow some boys. Just not cis boys.
I think they allow male leaders because it's hard to get people to volunteer for that position without even limiting to one gender.
In what universe are prepubescent children having sex?
Boy Scouts can join a troop at 10 and age out at 18. It's not uncommon for high schoolers to begin experimenting sexually.
Further there's also a branch of Boy Scouts called Venturing that is co-ed where participants age out at 21.
The Lemmy universe.
Why would they have sex?
Teenagers are full of hormones through puberty and many begin experimenting. Boy Scouts don't age out until they are 18.
Oh shit, I imagined it as a 14 and under kind of thing.
Cub Scouts is age 5-10 Boy Scouts age 10-18th birthday Venturing 14-21st birthday
I've never even heard of that last one!
I was a heckin cub scout and totally forgot it was a thing.
Why do some people get so upset if women try to exclude men?
Because men aren't allowed to exclude women. Just wanna let you all know how that feels.
Ask yourself why some people get so upset if men try to exclude women. The answer is mostly the same.
Women can join the misogynist club but men aren't allowed to join the misanderist club. Because all men are sexual deviants or something.
Right. Why can't they all love sexism?
