    Default Girl Scout Launches Cookie Boycott Campaign Against Transgender Girl Scouts

    Girl Scout cookies should be boycotted because they are horribly unhealthy. However the Scout in the video believes the cookies should be boycotted because the Girl Scout organization that produces the cookies is being dishonest. Personally, I think the obesity issue is more important.

    "Right now, Girl Scouts of the U.S.A...is not being honest with us girls, its troops, its leaders, its parents or the American public," Taylor, who claims to have been a Girl Scout for eight years, says in the clip. "Girl Scouts describes itself as an all-girl experience. With that label, families trust that the girls will be in an environment that is not only nurturing and sensitive to girls' needs, but also safe for girls."

    It does seem a bit strange to allow boys into the Girl Scouts, even if the boy is legitimately transgender. This seems like a tough debate and the Scout does makes a strong argument.

    Maybe it's time for Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts to become
    Any-Kid-Who-Wants-to-Join Scouts.

    Islam (not apostates peddled as Islam by hags of the sea) would not approve of this transgender business.

    Interesting. I know you are learned in this area, but I saw a documentary on CURRENT that claimed the Imams were not addressing transgenders because the Koran does not discuss it.

    I'm not sure how your comment relates to the thread topic, but either way:

    Before the Islamic Revolution in 1979, the issue of transsexuality in Iran had never been officially addressed by the government. Beginning in the mid-1980s, however, transsexual individuals were officially recognized by the government and allowed to undergo sex reassignment surgery. As of 2008, Iran carries out more sex change operations than any other nation in the world except for Thailand. The government provides up to half the cost for those needing financial assistance, and a sex change is recognised on the birth certificate.[1]

    The Sunnis are correct in their labeling of the Shi'a as apostates, deviated from Islam.

    Every topic, by the way, has to do with Islam, as Shari;a will be The Law of the Land.

    Well I suppose it might be legit if the transgendered child had a diagnoses from an independent psychologist.

    Is there even any legitimate scientific diagnosis that a child is "transgendered"?

    Enablers will come up with one. It's child abuse.

    Um, yeah, duh. However, I get the feeling you don't really care about any science.

    So let's get this straight, there is Gender Identity Order, you can have it, but it doesn't count as a mental illness? That's really having your cake and eating it too.

    It seems rather ridiculous to me. Just classify the child's eligibility for participation on the basis of their sex organs. How difficult is that?

    Liberals care more about feelings than fact. They think you can be a female yet have a penis.

    So you're suggesting that the Girl Scouts should have a genital inspection before allowing a child to sign up? And what about intersex people who are born with ambiguous genitalia?

    Just add another category: Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, and Tranny Scouts.

    What the hell are you talking about? I've said many times that GID is a mental illness caused by a biological disorder. Don't put words in my mouth you dunce.

    According to wikipedia they say that a growing movement is to NOT consider GID a mental disorder.

    I believe it was removed from the latest DSM as well, though I'm not positive.

    The DSM 5 won't be out until 2013. Since you don't even know that simple fact, maybe you should admit to yourself that your conclusions on this issue are not credible?

    I have said specifically, in discussions which you have participated in, that GID should be classified as a disorder and insurance should cover hormone treatment at least.
