Searched first three pages and didn't see this.

Officially triggered. I understand the mind is a complex entity and that you can't choose, in most instances to like something that is against your nature. My issue with this is no matter how much you want to identity as a boy, you aren't going to be a boy. Period (no pun intended).

Instead of having to conform due to PC pressure, why not say no? This isn't like skin color and separate but equal. Boys have a penis. Girls have a vagina.

I'm sure there are perfectly fines alternatives for these parents to explore for their child. So why won't they?

It's time to burn the whole thing down and start over.

And next year they'll be wondering why there aren't as many boy scouts signed up

Parents are fricking stupid if they think this is a good idea. Lets put a "boy" with all the parts a girl needs with a group of boys going through puberty. Makes sense to me.

I'm not sure why these organizations don't just tell them to frick off sometimes.

I was sitting in a meeting yesterday at wok and we watched a film on workplace respect and tolerance. In one particular segment, a man called Bob walks up to one of the managers and says," I've been going through a change lately and I want to become a girl. From now on, I want my coworkers to start calling me Betty. And soon, I will start wearing women's apparel to work."
After this segment, it followed with a quiz question on whether the company should honor Bob's request. The answer was, yes!
We've gone nuts as a country.

And fat boys rejoiced, no longer the primary targets for bullying.

I think it all boils down to the BSA being afraid of the United Way pulling funding and state/ Fed governments not allowing them to use public lands anymore.

I'm an Eagle Scout and have a kid in Cub Scouts. I don't really seeing this being an issue in Alabama. I don't necessarily agree with the decision but I understand why they did it.

Yet another Boy Scout failure.

Sad decision. Weak leadership.

Because they are putting intense pressure (product boycott) on the business executives, like AT&T's president, who serve on the Boy Scout board of directors.

We'll see if the dyke dens will be able to properly host Boy Scout troops, because churches won't anymore. What an evil middle finger these moneychangers have given their country, their morals and their maker.

I still remember when I was told by the scout leader I'd "be chopped up into so many pieces they wouldn't find you for weeks," with fondness. I can only imagine if that was said today.

The political correctness continues. It's really getting old. Very few people really wants this stuff shoved in our faces. I guess conservatives are gonna have to do like the liberals; just keep screaming until everyone listens and changes out of fear of being called names. LOL

I don't understand parents who let their children have reassignment surgery. Seems like child abuse to me, and they should be charged with a crime.

another institution destroyed

Liberals don't give a shite about this. They just want to render the boy scouts into something decent people want no part of.

The kids won't give a shite unless some parent stirs them up.
