Another positive step in the right direction for an organization rife with brokenness. There’s a lot I don’t like about the organization, but this is something a love–a scouting organization open to young women and the lgbtq community. The next step is being inclusive of nonreligious agnostic and atheist youth and leaders. As well as ending the cultural appropriation of Native American peoples.
May this organization continue to build up youth, never allow further violence against youth, and make amends for all the wrongs. There’s a lot of good that comes out of organizations like this and I won’t discount it even though it’s riddled with a dark history.
Rolls off the tongue a lot better than “traditionally masculine hobbies gang”.
Yeah, sewing and cooking are traditionally masculine hobbies. /s
A lot of the stuff they do are male focused, but they teach a lot of skills that are useful to life that aren’t masculine. That’s why I much prefer the BSA to the Girl Scouts. Girl Scouts seems to be purely feminine. It’s all about baking and crap. BSA (or the new acronym) is about developing a wide variety of skills, and it covers damn near everything. You won’t learn all of them, but you are required to earn cooking at least.
