I have been reading Some female philospher's and it has made me think a little more about some seemingly normal things.
For example when I am flustered I may go out and take a walk through town to collect my thoughts and usually am undisturbed. Is it the same for women.
Now to the thread.
Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts which seprate boys and girls at 5 years age and puts them through training. In this day and age should they still exist.
Every meeting 5 times a month the Boy Scouts must say there Oath and Scout law and the Girl Scouts must say the Promise and Scout law.
Boy Scout Oath
On my honor I will do my best to do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout law to help other people at all times to keep myself physically strong mentally awake and morally straight.
Girl Scout Promise
On my honor I will try to serve God and my country to help people at all times and to live by the Girl Scout Law.
Do you see the difference
Boy Scout Law
A Scout is trustworth, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, thrifty, brave, clean and reverent.
Girl Scout Law
I will do my best to be honest and fair, friendly and helpful, considerate and caring, courageous and strong and responsible for what I say and do and to respect myself and others, respect authority use resources wisely make the world a better place and be a sister to every Girl Scout.
Still a difference.
I was a Cub Scout leader and some of my parents were in Girls Scouts as well Both Groups have to get similar patches.
Building patch Boys, Bird House and similar Girls Jewerly Box and similar
Sewing patch Boys, Leather wallet, Leather Satchel etc. Girls, Pillow, Doll Clothes etc.
In my opinion this is wrong. At 5 years old we are already gender discriminating. It should just be the Scouts. They should say and be able to do the same things. Why are we separating boys and girls at 5 years and teaching different principles and idea's. What are your thoughts?
