Girl Scouts Are Learning Feminism

Article here. Excerpt:

'When many parents think of Girl Scouts, they imagine young girls in uniform selling Thin Mints and Tagalong cookies – not learning about stone labyrinths, world peace, global warming, yoga, avatars, smudging incense, Zen gardens and feminist, communist and lesbian role models.

But that's exactly what many of 2.7 million Girl Scouts will learn about with a new curriculum called "Journeys" released last year.
...
They will be briefly introduced to Polish poet Anna Swir, known for her feminist and erotic poems, and Jane Addams, an ardent feminist and pacifist who received a Nobel Peace Prize.
...
In the next age group, for teens in the ninth and tenth grades, girls are taught about wage disparities between the sexes, and a lack of assets and senior management positions held by women.'

They are indoctrinating the next generation at younger and younger ages. It's better that way since kids are so easily manipulated at that age (before common sense kicks in).

Oh, please. There was more than enough identifiable cr@p in that article to justify dismissing the rest of what it claims as unreliable.
The writer's goal was clearly to grind an axe, not present an issue.
Lets find articles from reputable, non-biased websites to critique, OK?

It was obvious where they were coming from long ago.
We don't support this organization at my house.
