why girl scouts!!!

29 Jun 2007

My daughter is thinking of joining the scouts. I say no! join the guides! Why on earth do Scouts now have to have girls in it?? Whats wrong with it remaining boys only. If they want to do scouty things then do that at guides. My boys cant join Girls brigade which ok im glad about because it has relideous overtones which im not to chuffed with.
Whats wrong with having men only clubs or men only bars in golf/cricket or whatever clubs. As long as women have the equivalent and there is equal provisionfor mixed to then whats wromg with it.
Even the public toi;ets in our town is now unisex. Why?
Maybe we should just ask science to start developing the purely androgenous human for the future.
Vive La difference i say
rolleyes

Girls should def not be able to join the scouts
It has to do with survival
What girl do you know who could rub the sticks together fast enough to make a fire??
I imagine the headline 'Cruel scout leader leaves girls on moor with no matches, they suffer hypothermia '

Oh lostie so sexiest, my daugther is about to become a scout after being a cub scout for the last 2 yrs. She loves it and why on earth can't girls do the same things as boys?????
Scouts teach great skills and is very different to how it used to be, I know as I used to be a Leader (lol) yes woggle and all......
Things should be more uni-sex these days this is the 21st century, let our girls and boys mix in harmless fun they are only children for a short time......xxxx
I still love ya tho xxxx

Regarding the Scouts, public toilets, golf/cricket clubs etc etc being mixed sex.
My answer would be - why not?

Two words- TOILET SEATS!
Noooooo! It's bad enough at home- the last thing I want nipping to the loo at Asda is to have to holler down the veg aisle to the bloke whose just left the toilet "put the fecking seat down!" mad

This is such a criminal act. All blokes should be shot for this. Fancy leaving the toilet seat up.......
.......all blokes should know that a woman could not possibly work out how to put the toilet seat down. It is just too hard to work out :shock: bolt

And why not? As a girl I'd have loved to have joined the scouts I found Guides to be a bit prissy, as I was such a tomboy. And generally you're not going to get many girls wanting to join if they are the Barbie, girlie kind of girls!
There's a few girls in cub/scout packs here locally.

Yeah but it means we have to touch it to put it down again. confused

No doubt the underside will be covered with dried old wee from all the times you forgot to lift the seat perviously. Nice. :lol2:

Well have non prissy girl guide packs then? or a mixed alternative just why cant the boy scouts be left as 'boy' scouts?

I can see and understand both points of view as an ex-cub, scout, venture scout and leader.
As a scout I would not have wanted girls getting in the way of me and my mates.
as a venture scout however (15-21) we all wanted girls to join! Durr confused

and it was fab!! biggrin

As a leader, the tables were turned again and having girls in the groups was a real headache as I am sure you can imagine.
Guides were always a little too prissy for many girls really.
dunno what the answer is!!
