Only boys should be Boy Scouts.
Only girls should be Girl Scouts.Because girls & boys are different.
Why is that so hard for liberals?!

Some users took to social media to voice that the lack of boys signing up to be part of the Boy Scouts today is the actual reason behind such a move toward inclusivity.
Boy Scouts---> Liberals did not make this decision, BS did. They are losing money and want to make more. This is their plan.

The Boy Scouts of America said they're just giving kids and parents what they've been asking for after years of conversation: access to the Boy Scouts. In response to the news announced Wednesday, the Girl Scouts wrote a blog posted titled "Girl Scouts Are the Girl Leadership Experts," reminding all that they have been serving girls for more than 100 years.

But some took to social media to share their own experiences with what the Girl Scouts has been for years, adding that being in the Boy Scouts would break the stigma and push forth a stronger rhetoric for feminism.
@girlscouts if girls can join the Boy Scouts let boys join the Girl Scouts #Equality

When did Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts turn into fraternities and sororities for 7 year olds? Why can't we all roast marshmallows together?

Girl Scouts is a joke tbh. I don’t blame girls for wanting to bc GS never did fun outdoorsy things. It was all crafts and cookies imo.
