OT: Any former Boy Scouts here? BSA is rebranding.
- Thread starter 18IsTheMan
- Start date
This is what happens when leadership people break sacred trusts, as happened in the Boy Scouts in recent years. The corrective responses can be terrible and the founding principles of the organization can be lost in the wash.
And femineity, look at women's sports, Title IX, and bathroom privacy/security in schools.
Speaking of Life, Boy's Life magazine was a pretty good publication in my scouting days. Just saw where they changed their name a couple of years ago to Scout Life. Admittedly I dont know a thing about it anymore but I can't help but think boys are missing something about being boys.... which used to be a thingThe best part is how the BSA went bankrupt for letting grown men mess with little boys.
Now days they just do it in makeupand it’s ok. Life’s Great
You answered the question I posed in post #11. I suppose the literal answer is "no".
Here you go folks. That about sums it up. Lol
None of my scout leaders were pedophiles that I knew of anyway. But, at least one was a jerk. I remember when I told him I wanted to test for the architecture merit badge, he chuckled and told me I was barking up the wrong tree. But, I got the last laugh because my father owned a construction company and once I met all the requirements, he had to approve it. I recall good times at Camp Palmetto in Saluda NC. Weird that it was called Palmetto and located in NC. I see that it was renamed to Camp Bob Hardin.
