last time I made a "scout" thread..

I realize you won't respond to me, but this sort of comment forces me to ask the following questions...

Why do you think it's so important to attribute certain characteristics as "feminine" or "masculine"?

Do you truly believe that your categories are objective? Because if they're not objective, they're kinda useless.

As I said in the post, I think certain characterists objectively, inherently do come more naturally to women and some that do for men. I think this is something that is actually existing, not something I have simply made up or assigned. Male brians and female brains are different, oir genetics are different, our bodies are different, our hormones and chemical makeup is different. So yes, I believe objectively that feminine characteristics and masculine characteristics are also different.

This is a whole other discussion for another time (and I might not disagree with you entirely), but I think CL's made it clear that even if some characteristics come more naturally to males/females, any girl or boy who wants to pursue an interest that might traditionally be considered 'masculine' or 'feminine' respectively should be able to do so.  The addition of females to the Boy Scouts only opens more opportunities for girls that haven't, until now, had an organization with the size and resources of the Boy Scouts that lets them pursue these interests.  This is a purely positive move by the Boy Scouts.
