Boy Scouts Will Admit Girls, Allow Them to Earn Eagle Scout Rank

The Boy Scouts of America announced Wednesday that girls will soon be allowed to become Cub Scouts and to earn the coveted rank of Eagle Scout, the organization’s highest honor.

"We believe it is critical to evolve how our programs meet the needs of families interested in positive and lifelong experiences for their children," said Michael Surbaugh, chief executive of the Boy Scouts.

The scouting board of directors voted unanimously to make the historic change in an organization that has been primarily for boys since its founding more than 100 years ago.

What purpose will the 'Girl Scouts' now serve? Seems redundant

I was kicked out of the cub scouts for eating brownies.

This is ridiculous. In protest, I will no longer sit when I pee. I will stand.

Let's see... how can we feminize Boy Scouts even more?

Brilliant!

Meh. According to the article, they'll still be gender segregated by dens - all girl and all boy dens.

Something tells me a lot of boy scouts are going to be earning a merit badge in campout fingering.

It's pretty much a direct invasion of their turf. If I know anything about how gangs operate, I predict that we're going to see fights in the street between boy scouts and girl scouts in the near future, though in some cases that will mean girls fighting girls now.
