[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good. I think a lot of little girls got the idea that boy scouts is now cooler than GS. I think it's partly sexism that we encourage little girls to do things that boys do, but never encourage boys to sign up for "girly" things like dance.

I loved Girl Scouts and was very involved through hs even. [/quote]

My DD git the idea by comparing what she was doing to what her brother was doing ...which was way cooler.  I am sure there are some cool gs troops but hers was lame.  If she were younger she would eagerly sign up.   I am fine with girls included in boy scouts.[/quote]

And by comparison, my DS had the same reaction to my DD's GS activities. He quit boy scouts this year because he really isn't into hiking and camping and didn't feel like there was a place for him in boy scouts anymore. He sees his younger sister's troop building marble roller coasters, designing board games and learning about outer space, and thinks that sounds a lot cooler.[/quote]
