[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The problem the Girl Scouts are seeing is that girls want to move over to the Boy Scouts.  Suing because of the name it’s not going to make a difference. The Girl Scouts needs to change their image. Right now they are seen as cookie sellers, cookie pushers, Girl Scouts is synonymous with Girl Scout cookies ( and every single connotation that being in the kitchen with cookies evokes).

Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts are known for doing stuff, being outside, camping, wilderness, woodworking,, and the very prestigious Eagle Scout award.

The Girl Scouts should be suing the Boy Scouts but rather revamping the system to change perception for what the program is . [/quote]

This. 
When I asked my daughter if she wanted to join GS, her immediate reply was, "No. I don't want to sell cookies."  That some of her friends were in a troop made no impression upon her.  They are known for cookies. When you think Boy Scouts, you think camping and tying knots. Not popcorn or whatever else they might sell for fundraising.
