My son is an Eagle Scout and I was with him from Tiger Cubs to Eagle Scout
I saw the boys as they progressed through the ranks and it was particularly difficult for boys in High School. Wearing a scout uniform while a teenager is an invitation for abuse
Rebranding the scouts as a coed youth group will help in the long run
I mean, I understand better than the old fuddy duddies round here that looking like a dork will only make a boy already emasculated by society even more embarrassed but I really don't see how turning the boy scouts into a coed group will help. I'd rather work on fixing the culture that turned wholesomeness into a big joke.
