I am currently on a flight with a couple boy scouts and their leader, but she’s a women. Is this regular practice or new thing since the rule change?

This is the “new normal” where logic goes out the window.

The having sex with students problem would only happen in a school with a teacher. In scouts, it won’t ever happen. Just like socialism, this time it will work better.

Does the term "Den Mother" ring a bell at all?

I used to be in scouts and there were a couple women that were involved in the troop. The scout master and assistant scout masters were all guys, but some of the moms really helped out. Most of them were all in administrative type rolls, but some of them came on campouts and events and whatnot.

Maybe she started as a Den Mother and advanced through the ranks.

We had moms and dads leading in many different ways, all with the title of Assistant Scoutmaster. Heck, I think the moms had more wood badge training than the dads. I wouldn't think you saw anything out of the ordinary.

How dare you!

She could be a single mother that has to be a father also and most likely a pet mom.

She is a strong woman that is raising her son, Lakyn, to be such a better human than you will ever be!

Whatever gender her child associates with will be the most beautiful person because of that experience!

It has been that way for over 20 years. Scoutmaster/assistant scoutmaster can be a woman.

My mom and other moms were the heads of Boy Scouts when we were kids. All the dads worked.

Nothing makes logical sense anymore. Gender fluid and all.

It's not normal but normal is overrated. I do think a male leader would be preferable in some ways but maybe there's no suitable man with the time or interest.

There should be 2 leaders and at least one of the leaders needs to be male if the scouts are male. These were the rules...but the times they are a changing.

So much for Boy Scouts teaching young boys to grow into good men when there are no male role models present for them to emulate.
