Just the fact that America still separates boy and Girl Scouts is fucking ridiculous in my eyes though, I don't see why you can't have just scouts.

Sense of pride, it's what the spirit of the two organizations was founded on (boys can be boys without fear; girls can be girls without fear), different needs, a co-ed that fits the complaints of most females already in place, it would cost an insane amount of money to overhaul Boy and Girl Scout protocols and facilities to accommodate the change, because America is unique, a combination would lead to a compromising curriculum that dumbs it down for some boys and ramps it too high for some girls, massive criticism, possible future problems with integration, etc.

It's not sexist to have a "this gender only" group. It's just kinda logical, you wouldn't really want a group of guys sleeping with a group of girls, it would be a little weird.Maybe not "dumbs it down" so much as removes some of the unique opportunities that come from having a group specifically made for what your gender needs to develop and learn. I think before people call it "sexist" to have a boys only group, they should look around at the women's only groups in America and reevaluate the reasoning behind those groups. If there are girl's only clubs, girl's only online groups, girl's scouts, girl's church groups, and even girl's exercise establishments, why shouldn't there be an institution that is only for boys?

But it's the fact that gender-specific groups in the same fields are given different opportunities is the problem.
Yep, That would be perfect xPThen wouldn't it be better to modify the existing programs to allow Girl Scouts to do what Boy Scouts do and vice versa?

I did not mean to imply that the opinion of the boys themselves shouldn't matter. If anything, I was saying the opposite. More than what the adults want to see, it should be discussed by the boys themselves. I don't think that there would be a much of an opposition, particularly at a young age, except where it's influenced by the parents. That's why I said I don't expect them to kick up a fuss about it much. At the very least, all the guys I knew in boy scouts had no problem with befriending and doing stuff with girls. It likely differs from troop to troop though, since that's only my experience.

This, too, actually violates the spirit of Boy Scouts. There shouldn't be an adult discussing it with boys, it should be boys discussing it with adults. If the boys want there to be women in their organization, then there will be. If the adults want it, then it won't happen until the boys make it happen.
And befriending and doing stuff with girls isn't anything most guys are against... outside of Boy Scouts.
Doesn't like Canada have the Cub Scouts or something, seems like something those igloo people would make.I mean they have the venture scouts which is literally Boy Scouts but girls are allowed.
America has that tooDoesn't like Canada have the Cub Scouts or something, seems like something those igloo people would make.
Damn, I gusss country limited Scouts will never become a thing, me and some guy in the Netherlands will have to deal with that.America has that too
Cub scouts is just pretty much just Boy Scouts for elementary school kids. And girls aren't allowed in it as far as I'm concerned. I know I wasn't allowed in back when I was that age and I'm pretty sure it hasn't changed now.Damn, I gusss country limited Scouts will never become a thing, me and some guy in the Netherlands will have to deal with that.
But last I remember, Cub scouts are like available to both genders so I don't know why the womens wouldn't just join that group? Is it a fear of determination? To show those dirty white males that in fact.. white females can do it as well? As far as I know, it's a weird cycle and shit gets weirder the farther we go.
