Girl Scouts of America Goes Transgender
Conservatives are furious over the Girl Scouts new policy to begin accepting boys who choose to dress as girls.
The Blaze Reported:
Titled, “The Meaning of ‘Serving All Girls,’” and written by Dr. Andrea Bastiani Archibald, who is identified as a “chief girl expert,” the blog post opens by explaining the Girl Scouts’ history of embracing and supporting girls since its founding in 1912.
But it is the definition of “girl” that some are taking issue with, considering Bastiani’s comments about diversity and gender identity.
“If a girl is recognized by her family, school and community as a girl and lives culturally as a girl, Girl Scouts is an organization that can serve her in a setting that is both emotionally and physically safe,” the blog post reads. “Inclusion of transgender girls is handled at a council level on a case by case basis, with the welfare and best interests of all members as a top priority.”
Bastiani continues, “As we face a complex and rapidly changing 21st century, our nation needs all girls to reach their full potential, which has been our focus for more than 103 years.”
Penny Nancy, CEO of Concerned Women for America stated, “They’re no longer Girl Scouts, they’re just Scouts. That’s fine if they want to rebrand. But it raises all kinds of complications and questions for parents, volunteer parents who are involved.”
The American Family Association (AFA) has acted by rolling out a petition demanding this nonsense be stopped immediately. Up to this point, it’s already garnished over 37,000 signatures.
This policy is not only foolish, it’s dangerous. Hopefully parents will immediately yank their daughters from all contact with the Girl Scouts of America until they agree to rescind this ludicrous policy.
