Article here. Excerpt:

'For 108 years, the Boy Scouts of America's flagship program has been known simply as the Boy Scouts. With girls soon entering the ranks, the group says that iconic name will change.

The organization on Wednesday announced a new name for its Boy Scouts program: Scouts BSA. The change will take effect next February.

Chief Scout Executive Mike Surbaugh said many possibilities were considered during lengthy and "incredibly fun" deliberations before the new name was chosen.

"We wanted to land on something that evokes the past but also conveys the inclusive nature of the program going forward," he said. "We're trying to find the right way to say we're here for both young men and young women."'

I was in Scouts. We were adult-supervised maybe about 30% of the time, possibly less. By this I mean only about 1/3 of the time was there an adult leader type in seeing distance. We got into all manner of mischief, at times right under their noses. Boys however will be boys. It was harmless enough, even in our teens.

Oh yes, our teens. That lovely time when kids become horny and want to fuck. THOSE teens. Well we'd be on campouts and though horny teenaged boys, we didn't fuck anyone because well... there were no girls there to fuck.

Take 15 teen and pre-teen boys and put them in the middle of nowhere for 2 days. Give them bad food and tents to sleep in. What do you get? A cross between Lord of the Flies and Gomer Pyle, USMC. Weird but otherwise harmless enough. We got cold, too. Sometimes we got so cold in winter our teenaged homophobia was overcome and guys'd literally sleep on top of each other (in sleeping bags, of course, not in the same ones you perverts). That is what happens when warm-blooded animals get cold. They form piles and stay warm.

Lord of the Flies + Gomer Pyle = BSA.

Now, take these 15 teen and preteen boys and replace them with 20 teen and preteen boys AND girls.

Drop them in the middle of nowhere with tents and bad food. Do this during a cold season, like winter. Supervise them about 1/3 of the time.

Now half the time, eliminate clear vision. The sun goes down. No light.

What could possibly go wrong?

Maybe this is a secret plan to increase the birthrate.

Mmm... Right. And so when will the Girl Scouts be opening up their doors to BOYS? I mean you know? Fair is fair, right?
I mean.., that would be real equality, would it not?
I mean that's the goal, isn't it? Real equality?
So.... when will the Girl Scouts be opening up their doors to BOYS?
