        Why not just merge the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts? Boys and girls are capable of learning the same skills, why separate by gender?

        Here in Canada we have never discriminated. Kids are kids are kids. We even have the "Rainbow Scouts" in Toronto!

        You're also supposed to be friendly, courtious, kind, & cheerful. I don't remember disrespectful being in the 12 points.

        do you mean disrespect like you showed your medal? Or like you showed the BSA? Or like you showed the children? Please clarify.

        It's only disrespectful if you followed the teachings of the BSA & deserved your rank. But clearly you don't on either account.

        Check your science textbooks, sometime. Specifically the ones that cover psychology and biology. ✌️

        They use it because the scientific studies performed support their argument, which gives them credibility.
