[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]

Both organizations rely on volunteers.  That means that every troop will be different because it will be determined by the parent volunteers for that troop. Your experience is different than mine.  At our school the GS troops were by far better organized, more adventurous and better attended.  My sons were in Cub Scouts and enjoyed what they did.  They also begged their leaders to talk to the Girl Scout leaders to find out how to do the fun activities the girls were getting to do.[/quote]
