Mormon Church To End Its Century-Long Relationship With The "Declare Your Gender" Scouts

(Reuters) - The Mormon church is ending its century-long relationship with the Boy Scouts to focus on its own global youth leadership and development program as the social views of the organizations have gradually moved apart in recent years.

The Utah-based Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints will end its charter partner status with the Boy Scouts and will not sponsor scouting troops after Dec. 31, 2019, the organizations said in a joint statement.

The announcement comes a week after the Boy Scouts of America said it will drop “boy” from the name of its signature program for older youths as it seeks to widen its appeal to girls. The church did not say whether this was a factor in its decision.

The church, which holds socially conservative views, however, did say on Tuesday that it needs to reach young people globally as it increasingly becomes a worldwide organization, with a majority of its membership living outside the United States.

“That trend is accelerating,” the church said.

Cub Scout and Boy Scout programs serve about 330,000 Mormon youth ages 8 to 13 in the United States.

In May 2017, the church said it was no longer participating in two Boy Scouts of America programs for older teenagers, a change that affected more than 185,000 boys in the United States and Canada.

That announcement came months after the Boy Scouts began accepting transgender boys into the program. The church said this did not influence its decision to pull out of the programs.

This sounds like a plan by SJWs to intermingle Soy scouts of america to turn dudes into libby fags pre puberty, then full libby drones post adolescence.
Of course any soy induced indiscretions due to camping co mingling will be fully documented in 4k for cash disbursement via lawsuit come retirement time for those lucky fucks that survived the soy experience with their genitals intact...

The Boy Scouts should be an organization for boys, and the Girl Scouts should be an organization for girls.

Why is that even a controversial stance at all?

Boys need to learn to cooperate with other boys to reach goals. It’s part of being socialized, and ready to enter the adult world. This is much harder to accomplish with girls about and underfoot, being as girls have different temperaments and goals and attitudes that are not always compatible with such a process. There’s a reason the social rules for mixed company are different than the rules for single-gender company... for men AND women!
Believe me, a lone guy in attendance on a bunch of women talking like they do when they’re alone with their friends would become very uncomfortable very quickly.

So we do need sex segregation at times for proper socialization of men and women, boys and girls, so that boys can be free to develop into the strong, self-reliant men that women actually want them to be!

You are old fashioned, 85 genders is so yesterday. Now there are more than a 100, necessitating 156 bathrooms in every work place. Let's turn office building into YUUGE expanses of bathrooms!

I agree. Women do not actually want the squishy manlets that they are creating by actions such as destroying the Boy Scouts. Women want the exact opposite: men who will not put up with nonsense like this, even though women claim otherwise.

The proof is simple: simply watch what women actually do and how it directly contradicts what they say. Women continuously demonstrate by their dating choices that they greatly prefer traditional men. Guys who are physically strong, dominant, confident, and in charge. Bonus points for being tall or being in the military or the police. Just hang out in a bar and watch the subtle interactions. The manliest guys get the most attention from women.

I went to an interesting meetup recently where a woman asked everyone to imagine what their life would be like as the opposite gender. It was truly amazing how every single woman had fantasized for years about how great their life would be as a man, and not a single man there had ever wanted to be a woman, or even thought about it.

So I think that much of this cultural self-destruction is motivated by female jealously of male roles. But the denial of innate gender roles hurts everyone and should be stopped.

Uniforms work wonders with women.

And sadly why many women wind up with what we call "bad boys", or the criminal element, because they are the polar opposite of the powder puff.

Immense Hirsute Lesbian Troop A, with strap on merit badges! It's time has come!

I have nothing against mormons, hot (non-swearing) women, solid genetic lineage, traditional and keeping their cities clean. Just keep a flask handy on Sundays ;)

The polygamy thing seems very sensible but putting all the chicks in separate beds seems like the waste of an opportunity for a husband to enjoy all of his wives as an ensemble, dedicated to his pleasure.


It's fun watching them scrambling on the floor for the scattered droplets of sanctifying balm.

AF the wordsmith created a "Time word of the year" worthy term here.

I just read the number of Mormon US Eagle Scouts over the past 100 years is more than 525,000. In my opinion, it was the BSA that abandoned the church - with many more US Christian organizations soon to follow. I would even say that the BSA admins themselves broke the oath. Norman Rockwell and the last vestiges of the American Dream long dead. Welcome to the Era of the Weak and Harmless. If the lights ever go out, don't expect any Dads in the Blue States to know how to start a fire without matches and lighter fluid - and precious few in the Red.
