Boy Scouts fucked up

The BSA just announced that girls will be allowed into Cub Scouts starting 2018, and girls into Boy Scouts in 2019. Horrible idea if you ask me.

As an Eagle Scout myself and have worked at one of the largest Boy Scout summer camps in the midwest for the past five years. I can say that allowing girls in will drastically change the atmosphere and values of the organization.

Boy Scouts from its beginnings to around the early 2000s was some pretty tough intense stuff. Merit badges were tough as shit to get. (Just look up the original requirements for merit badges, Archery is a gem). Over time though, fucking helicopter parents and incompetent marshmallow scouts have caused the requirements to get easier and easier. The way this happens is at the end of the year, the BSA looks over all of partial merit badges earned. And if there is a requirement that scouts are consistently failing, eventually they remove it. (Ex: Swimming merit badge, It used to be required to be able to swim 150 meters continuously, it's been bumped down to 100 meters). There are a lot of other examples like this that I don't feel like typing out. Anyway, with girls ages 11-17 being allowed to earn these badges, the pass rate for physically demanding badges is going to get lower and lower. Insteading of saying "git gud" eventually the badges are just going to get easier.

The overall atmosphere of the BSA is going to change. As I said, I've worked at a camp for four years, and no matter how different scouts can be, they are all weird as fuck. And that's awesome. I think it's because when you put a group of guys together that are all going through their awkward phases in life, and you remove girls from the pictures, the boys get to be themselves. They get to escape the social pressures from middle and high school. But letting girls join is going to ruin that free feeling that the boys get when they are in Boy Scouts.

They don't need to water it down for the girls you fag, they'll keep on doing the same shit they always did and girls who don't like it won't join.

(((Who))) could be behind this?

Finally, the part that I'm most pissed off about. HAVE THE PEOPLE WHO WANTED THIS CHANGE EVER HEARD OF VENTURE SCOUTS???? Its' the co-ed program program that the BSA offerers to boys and girls ages 14-21. Its basically Boy Scouts but you just do the outdoor shit minus the merit badges.

This whole thing is fucking dumb.

Honestly, what does it matter? Look where your posting this; on a website that has at least 9 boards dedicated to porn and a board dedicated to faggots. When the only place people can protest such actions as this is in anonymity in a place such as this, what does that say about our culture?

My family is entirely comprised of eagle scouts, and until this week we all have made regular and sizable donations to the BSA. No more.

I don't suspect this decision will last too long.

Did you not read the post? The BSA has been watering down their shit for years

Just imagine all the gangbangs you will miss out on

I disagree. The Girl Scouts are infested with SJW and Feminist Cancer. Bringing girls into the BSA will allow us to teach young girls true virtues.

Honor. Fidelity. Self Reliance. Pride in Country.

The BSA did this because parents were literally begging them to let their girls in. The Girl Scouts have literally become that bad.

No they haven't. BSA troops are largely independently run.

The troops are independent but requirements are universal

The Universal requirements are also not that onerous. And compared to the modern society, largely red pilled. The biggest gimme the BSA has given to the left is "Gay people and Atheists can be scouts now!".

But that is with huge qualifiers and ones the troops largely enforce.

I have a daughter and I am fucking stoked about this.The Boy Scouts still adhere to the traditional ethos of the movements. The Girl Scouts are cancer. I am going to put my daughter in the Cub Scouts at the first opportunity. Start my own den if necessary.

Doesn't the true effect of this mean that the Boy Scouts are going to steal the Girl Scout's purpose? From what I remember they're two separately run enterprises, so this as a corporate move is a real fuck you to the Girl Scouts.

So hardfork. Schism. Fuck the BSA. Replace them with something new that adheres to the values they've abandoned. The Trump Youth or something equally triggering would be a nice name but smart money's on a more neutral, patriotic name. It sucks to have to do but it is at least doable. The only thing getting corrupted is a brand. The cultural infrastructure is still intact and probably all too happy to regroup under a new masthead.

Any organization or institution that can't do this and do it routinely might not survive this culture war.

>Bringing girls into the BSA will allow us to teach young girls true virtues.
>Honor. Fidelity. Self Reliance. Pride in Country.

You forgot homosexuality and transsexualism

>Stop making excuses for this shitty organization

>The Trump Youth

HAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. It would have 20 kids join, and would be closed within a year, be charged with fraud and tax evasion. Like all of Trump's scams. Though selling Trump Steaks and Trump University applications instead of cookies is compelling...

Holy fuck my sides...

It is. The Girl Scouts are screeching autistically about this. Reading between the lines its clear why this happened.

The GSA became turbo feminists SJW and people stopped wanting to let their daughters go to thought police school. Begged to allow their girls join their brothers in BSA troops instead.

BSA has finally relented. This is an anchluss a a long time in coming for anyone who follows scouting the USA. The BSA has always been the big player and the GSA has always been second fiddle. In recent years,, rather then try to catch up, the GSA has embraced victim politics and have attempted to accuse the BSA of everything from sexism to racism.

Cuz, you know, achieving Eagle Scout rank carries huge societal impact in the US. The Army promotes you two whole pay grades if you enlist, it makes admission to the military academies more likely, it looks sexy as fuck on job and college applications.

What is the girl scout equivalent? Who knows. Who cares.

Rather then fix this issue the Girl Scouts just decided to play the victim card rather then address the systemic problems with their program. Among which is teaching girls to be shrill victimized harpies.

So yeah, no surprise the BSA has decided to go on the offensive. The GSA is doomed at this point, they will double their membership, and pry millions of girls from the conniving clutches of shrill lesbians.

I feel bad for places like Philmont that are some of the last bastions of manliness in scouts.

yeah this is really dumb

can't we just have one thing that this shit doesn't spread too

>the workplace
>the military
>boyscouts
>video games
what's next

Hot take: Donations are going to dry up and they will be out of business in 5 years.
Progressivism doesn't pay.

Kys

more children for the scoutmasters to molest

eat dick

yeah it's incredibly stupid. Plus they Girl Scouts exist for a reason ffs.

They've said point blank they will allow troops to segregate based on gender. This is absolutely fucking perfect.

The venture brothers?

I had a buddy in high school who was an Eagle Scout. I regret never doing it, I became a Cavalry Scout in the Army, so I tried. I have all the respect in the world for the Eagle Scouts and hope they can figure this situation out.

Bringing girls into it means theyll be bringing in the negative leaders from ghe girl scouts to emasculate the boy scouts. Soon they will merge the groups & simply call them The Scouts.

I hope your daughter kills herself

I think putting them in the same troop would be alright, always thought separation was weird and always hear bad stuff about girl scouts. Idk why this was needed though, plus venture scouts have been a thing for a while

Tl;Dr OK, but.... Why? What's the reason for this?

Nah, the beauty of this hostile take over means the harpies will stick with the girl scouts of America rather then move on over to the boy scouts.

And lets be real. Who is going to enroll their daughters into the boy scouts? Its going to be dads like me. Who is going to lead the troops? Dads like me. You think I am going to allow my daughters troop go co-ed? Fuck no. The only co-ed activities will be summer camp, in that there will be boy troops in the vicinity but not on the camp site. All the better too. It will help train young men to try and slip past me to get at my daughter. They won't succeed (or they might), but it will be all part of the process of raising good kids nonetheless.

Or as the GSA would put it, hetero normative cis gendered males and females.

I love boy scout camps so much. Everyone running around autisticly reeeeeeing talking about /pol, everyone working there is super conservative. The dude giving us the weather merit badge said if we said global warming wasn't real we'd get the badge. Good times

USA Yes

UPDATE

talking with my scout family, apparently internationally, lots of girls enroll in scout organizations across the world. In places like Sweden and Netherlands it's just "scouts" and affiliated with the same international group the bsa is, and has been like that for many decades. In the US its just weird and we had the seperate boy scouts of America and girl scouts of America.

Godspeed scoutbro. I didnt know about this issue at all but it sounds like ANOTHER male bastion of society is gone.

Boys arent allowed to be boys. Its seriously bringing me down to hear about.

>was some pretty tough intense stuff. Merit badges were tough as shit to get.
>It used to be required to be able to swim 150 meters continuously
lol what? 150 meters is attainable by anyone but the niggerest of nigger non-swimmers.

Maybe you guys could create the "Abort" badge. In order to earn that badge, a girl scout has to get pregnant on a camp out and then have an abortion. There can be a "Score" badge for boys that impregnate 3 girls on camp outs.

ur daughter is going to have a train ran on her and that slut will enjoy every drop of cum

the bsa died when they decided to let in gays....that's not keeping morally straight....this is just the last gasping breaths of a dying organization

Soon the boy scouts will be black '''boys''' there to fuck tween white girls

You're scared.

When the BSA is destroyed, will this raise the collector value of old non-pozzed BSA handbooks?

C'mon man, what's the Taco Bell equivalent of a McGangbang?

hmmmmmmmm...
If i had known that Eagle Scout had such an impact, my insane over-achiever childmind would have definitely destroyed that requirement and would've become eagle-scout supreme.

Gender came before race? Who says??

What was wrong with girl scouts? They did all the same things. We had a few camping trips shared with the GSA at the same place. The sites were divided, but there were shared activities (basically fishing and shooting). Both sides did everything, just stayed in their own areas at night.

Everyone R.E.L.A.X, relax. If you read the statement it says a "separate" program designed by the BSA will allow girls to learn the outdoors skills and pursue the rank of eagle. Im for this as long as boys still get their separate space to learn and develop from boys to young men.

Also I'm pretty sure BSA did this because membership is down. What better way to increase funding than to double your market. Take your conspiracy theories and shove them up your butts.

>Encouraging the brightest youth of America to denigrate themselves to the lowest levels of degenerate nigger behavior
Begone, Jew

How will they earn their "I turned my sleeping bag into a cunt and fucked it" badge?

Nigger go back to africa

Im actually okay with this, I was a scout for many years and really regret being an edgy cunt of a teenager and dropping out without pursuing eagle
I would 100% put my daughter in a girls only troop, I need someone else worthwhile around here my wife is literal dead weight when we go camping

You'd be surprised how many kids that try to take the badge barely make it past 50

Girls are cancer to BSA. Had a den dad try to bring his daughter to a camping trip and watching all the boys try and grab up on that pussy and impress her sickened me rather than play hide in seek in the deep woods or draw on the first guy that passed out. Really made me realise the powerpussy has on young guys. This is the subtle worst decision they have ever made...

And btw we were 11-12 age

I heavily recommend Trail Life USA as the official alternative to BSA.

Scouts has long been an unofficial daycare for literal retards. All the paramilitary aspects and physical intensity got lost probably in the 90s. The fags and now girls are just the last few nails in the coffin. Sad!

americans parents are purritan with sex.

meanwhile in the rest of the world besides shitty muslim countries. parents dont give a shit if their kids have sex with other kids as long as theres no pregnancy.

of course, absolutely nothing is going to change.

It never does

I literally do not understand. Girls can already be in Venture Crew. Why do they have to take away the fraternal nature of the Boy Scouts when they can already be in an organization that does all the cool things boy scouts do?

They've already pissed off the Mormons who went off to go make their own boy scouts with beer and hookers, how many more of their former strongest supporters are they willing to lose with this pointless virtue signaling?

ya that is real
when I was in bootcamp all the shorter people were in from to prevent exactly this
they were awarded a shit ton because the doctors accused them of lieing and how much time it took

Be Prepared

Really

Be very very very prepared

Gay Boy Scout Leaders btfo

*front

The Boy Scouts have been irrelevant for years, perhaps decades.

The best part is how much damage control the BSA is having to do on social media. They'll ass kiss every poster who supports the decision and blatantly try to push down the massive majority of Scouts, Eagles, and adults who are against it.

Venture crew and sea scouts have no rank with the cred as an eagle, or gold award.

Girl Scouts is a dead organization and this is just the final nail in the coffin.

Will be an interesting leaders meeting next week.....

Fellow Yorkville bro here
I hear you guys loudly giving war cries and shit. I take my dogs in the woods there to the Fox at Hoover.
The MAN stuff like late night war cries just wont fit with girls. Thats man shit.

that's great, retard. the point here is that they (((won't))) be girls only.

>implying women need anything on their resume with as much beef as Eagle when gender quotas exist

I'm literally the alternative universe version of you who knew the impact it could have and got it.

It wasn't worth it. I have my degree in CS and a job and I've never put it on my application because I never felt like I deserved it. You feel like such a failure if you go through scouts and don't get it though. Particularly from your dad.

Or they could just show some tits. Worked for Harvey.

Eagle scout here
Might as well just flush my card down the toilet since it'll be worthless soon enough

That's partly the fault of the BSA as far as I'm concerned. If the BSA was so damn interested in co-ed troops they should've pushed the Venture program more. I never saw one in my life besides a mannequin of one at the Scout museum.

eagle checking in... disgusting

This. What people don’t realize is that the Boy Scout money is drying up and they are preparing for the Mormons to drop scouting completely with their own young men’s program.

>the tfw I got to work for the bsa and experience the last era of scouting.
>tfw I’ve been out of Mormonism and scouting for years.

Mormons were the worst scouts. It is known. The bsa deserves to die a painful death.

Anyone want to try real scouting just go read the original scout manuals. They are fucking legit and they even have a “sort yourself out” section in them.

Also, if you want to do something fun without all the nonsense of the bsa, go check out diy.org. My kids love it and it’s easy to form your own “troop”

Actually yeah
We'd see pictures of them on posters and stuff but never met one at any camp, even went to national jamboree and didn't see one there

You see a few here and there especially at the larger camps. I am surprised that national vote unanimously. My son doesn't age out for another 5 years so it will be interesting how the dens and troops adjust. We lost a few old dinosaur leaders because of the gay thing. I bet there will be more hitting the road. I'd like to see the manual on the changes if it is even written yet.

The Mormons were okay in my experience. I took the Genealogy merit badge taught by Mormons and it was pretty good.

Girls want to be Eagles.

In one regard I hate Mormon Eagle mills. In another the Mormons weren't that hard to please. It's the BSA's own fault for thinking accepting fags would be a brilliant idea and wouldn't run off one of their biggest sponsors.

Exactly. You'd see an occasional poster or reference to it in the materials but it clearly wasn't pushed hard enough. If the BSA has this large demand of women in scouting why weren't they referring them to Venturing? Why weren't they starting up more Venture crews? Why weren't they setting up a Cub Scouts version of Venturing for the little ones?

GS is nothing like BSA. I am a eagle scout and worked at a girl scout summercamp as a horse wrangler. The girls quit as they get older and the camp was total chaos. No order no chain of command. It was a day operation.

I'm already seeing troops and councils complaining about not being given any kind of warning or voice on the issue. Trail Life is definitely about to get more troops, especially from troops sponsored by conservative churches.

This exactly. They won't even let you have that either....Dirty fucking liberals.

IF IF IF

What if a large portion of the qualified individuals just says they won't help any more. Just give up. Contact BSA head office with the support of many leaders and members. It is their right to cheapen BSA, but it is your right to stage a non-violent protest....As a joke, is there a "Non-violent protest" badge?

Good luck user. Sorry to see that the eagle scout will be cheapened over the next few years. Eventually everyone will just end up being an eagle scout just for participation.

Fucking liberals...they ruin everything.

I was in the boyscouts. Great post OP.

I grew up Mormon (left in my 30’s).

The Mormon troops were a plague in the bsa. They literally fucked it up more than anything else.

Quick rundown. Mormons mixed their young men’s program with the bsa. Problem is leaders are forced into being scout leaders. They have no scout training but they accept the “calling” anyway.

Every year I had to go train Mormon leaders because they would asked to be removed from being a scoutmaster. So all the troops were horrible and inept and were the worst scouts.

Most other troops have scoutmasters or leaders that have been properly trained and have been real volunteers for years.

I worked for the bsa from the age of 12-18 (camp counselor in Cali) then I worked for the bsa as an adult. Then I was a scoutmaster and asst scoutmaster. Then I was a commissioner. Also eagle and OA.

Mormon scouting consists of moms doing their merit badges for them at age 14, while the boys go play basketball on Wednesday nights at the “chapel”

I fucking couldn’t stand it so I joined a non Mormon troop and went to work for the bsa on my own. Best years of my life up in the mountains every summer.

Holy fucking shit that picture......GOD FUCKING DAMNIT.

The best way to spite the BSA atm is to support competitors like Trail Life. Make sure everyone knows you are an Eagle supporting Trail Life and make damn sure why people know you're doing it. Let the BSA be embarrassed that their Eagles won't support the organization anymore.

Giving rights to women and allowing fags to steal oxygen is what got us into this mess. Just let the Holy Roman Catholic Church have control again and we can make this all go away.

So you want to lead a group of teenage girls?
Camp out overnight in the woods with them?

There's a saying that the real Mormon Eagle Scout is the mom. Also a saying that Mormon Eagles are worth less than real Eagles.

>Who is going to lead the troops? Dads like me.
You say that, but there are already female leaders in Boy Scouts, and they're universally dogshit as both scout leaders and as human beings.

Negroid nose.

I absolutely agree.
(Eagle Scout, 4 year staffer at a scout camp.)
And after 4 summers, I can tell you that the entire summer camp experience will change dramatically.
The boys (as you said) won't be able to relax and cut loose from the social pressures they have to live by at home. And it sucks because they were always so much fun to watch as they spurge out and run around.
Some scouters say they saw this coming, I honestly did not. (At least not so soon.) I don't know if i'll work there anymore once the girl rule has taken effect. Maybe one summer to see how it is.

But that's it. The BSA is dead.
In the future, I probably won't admit my son into it. I'll just teach him all he needs to know myself.

what? it's a valid point. our bodies are different and they should march in a way that's tailored to the female body. men shouldn't be forced to march like women though. really, anyone who isn't a brainlet should have thought of this upon letting women in the military.

Cus its fucking true. Go watch a Mormon court of honor. It’s the most pathetic fucking thing you will ever witness in your whole goddam life.

They disrespect everything about the bsa and our flag and what it represents. I literally hate Mormon troops. They always cause problems, complain about everything, and ALWAYS have some injury caused by improper supervision and or training.

Mormons are fucking clown shoes.

GIBSMEDAT

Truth. Female leaders are absolutely shit. Almost as bad as Mormons. Mormon female leaders (oh fuck they are Satan’s spawn)

Females working as counselors and experts deep in camp there since 1994 at least

Shoo shoo little redditor, this is no place for you
