1	Why is this happening Obviously	/r/MensRights	17/10/17 01:22 AM
2	Why is this happening They meet on Monday night's so they haven't had a chance to discuss it as a troop yet. I'll be sure to update next week.	/r/MensRights	13/10/17 02:07 AM
2	Why is this happening Yeah the boy scout programs were awesome. We went cave diving, rock climbing, we mountain bikes on the Appalachian trail. It was great. I would love it if girls got to experience the same thing. Cheers and love right back at you, and thanks :)	/r/MensRights	13/10/17 01:59 AM
2	Why is this happening Yes I'll wait to see how it goes before judging too much. My younger brother is in scouts now so I have a little bit of insight into how current scouts are responding to this	/r/MensRights	13/10/17 01:55 AM
5	Why is this happening Yeah, I read that today and it makes sense. It also explains why the girl scouts are so opposed to this, it takes away "customers". I also read today that it will be up to the individual troops to decide if they want to integrate or form same sex troops only which also makes sense. I feel a bit better about it today, but I still feel that mixed gender troops would be a mistake	/r/MensRights	13/10/17 01:39 AM
4	Why is this happening Thank you for your perspective on this, I fully appreciate it. I had to laugh at the part about the cookies, in was lucky my troop sold Christmas trees once a year so I didn't have to do the whole popcorn selling thing. To answer your question , I would also fully support all-female troops under the boy scout frame work. If I ever end up having children Infully intend to expose them to scouting regardless of their gender. I believe every child should be able to experience scouting if they wish, …	/r/MensRights	13/10/17 01:36 AM
15	Why is this happening Definitely my fellow scouts, as I spent most of my time with them. The scout leaders were important as well, but in more of a role model sense. My fellow scouts were my brothers, we literally grew up together. I was with the same group of guys from age 6 in cub scouts all the way to 18 when we became eagles (almost all of us got it). I spent countless hours out in the woods with those guys. Hiking, swimming, and camping. We were in the same patrol and would take turns being the patrol leader. We…	/r/MensRights	12/10/17 07:11 AM
34	Why is this happening They can maintain the structure and the content, but the social dynamic of the group will change completely. The social aspect is arguable the most important part. I was raised by a single mother with sisters and aunt's and grandmas, I had no male role models outside of scouting. It was the one place where I could just be around other guys and learn how to be a man. I am not articulating it very well, and for that I apologize, but scouts being only boys was a huge part of it I think. I can't exp…	/r/MensRights	12/10/17 06:39 AM
2	Boy Scouts will allow girls to join I'm an Eagle as well and I am very disappointed by this news. Scouting was a brotherhood for me, somewhere to grow up and be myself without the added social pressure of impressing girls. My father was never around as a kid, I was raised by my mother. Scouts was where I learned how to be a man under the leadership of men I aspired to be like something I couldn't get at home or at school. Girls just add a whole new dynamic to it, and not for the better. I think girls should have the same opportuni…	/r/MensRights	12/10/17 06:28 AM
205	Why is this happening Speaking as an Eagle Scout myself, I am pretty annoyed by this. I think it speaks more about how poorly the girl scouts are run and perceived rather than any inequality in girls and boys. I am annoyed because scouts was the one place that we could just be boys and not have to worry about being around girls and trying to impress them or hold back for them. We could talk about disgusting things and get dirty and run around the woods and just be boys. Girls should have this same opportunity but for…	/r/MensRights	12/10/17 06:01 AM
