[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]We exist in an era where tween/teen girls want to escape being girls in historically high and troubling numbers[/b]. If using language with young girls allows them to acknowledge biological difference and embrace this difference - securing a foundation to endure being a t(w)een girl - then this is a good thing. I have boy / girl twins, and my son is not threatened by empowerment of his sister. With that, I disagree with the allowing girls in Boy Scouts as I think adolescent boys having scouts as a single-sex space was important. [/quote] By erasing biological and cultural differences between girls and boys, men and women, we have unintentionally harmed both boys and girls. [/quote]
