Should the Boy Scouts now allow girls to become scouts also? thoughts?

Aren't there the girl scouts for that?

Or...any number of other groups?

@JustLikeGreta Then why not try improving the girl scouts to do the same?
@Fangirlsarah1996 Apparently that is happening also..

@JustLikeGreta Then if good change is happening, why are they considering "jumping ship"?

I'm just saying, this isn't about discrimination or anything, the Boy scouts are a group where boys can get together and have fun, vice verse for the Girl scouts.

It's like...say...if I ran a gaming club where people who play video games can hang out...but someone wants to join from a chess club because "gaming is more important"

No There's a girl scout for that
Girls have been allowed to join some Boy Scout programs for years. My daughter considered joining a Venturing crew at one point.-

@JustLikeGreta not if the programs are designed to be co-ed, like Ventuing and STEM scouts. Those programs were designed to coed.
@ProdigalSummer But its been shown that often children do better when separated according to gender.

I was a Venturer (Senior Coed Boy Scouts) and enjoyed every bit of it. Girl Scouts were lame.

@RogueLoner Try again... And BTW, the organization in a lot of the world is just called Scouts and has been Coed forever.

There are Girl Scouts but the girls who want to join want to be more Tom-boyish. I think there's enough activities for each group to please their own.
Over here girls can join the Scouts-who are called simply Scouts.And I think boys can join the Guides.No problems at all!

When l was young it was the boy scouts and the girl guides. Why do they want girl scouts?
