Buh bye, thin mints.
Via Daily Caller:
After 108 years, the Boy Scouts are ditching the whole “boy” thing.
In an effort to be more inclusive, the Boy Scouts of America are dropping the “Boy” from the name of their lead program, the Boy Scouts. In October 2017, the Boy Scouts unanimously voted to begin allowing girls to join, starting in 2018. The program’s rebranding as the Scouts BSA, they announced Wednesday.
“We wanted to land on something that evokes the past but also conveys the inclusive nature of the program going forward,” Boy Scouts Chief Scout Executive Mike Surbaugh said. “We’re trying to find the right way to say we’re here for both young men and young women.”
