unironically a great move. my parents pushed me to do boy scouts and i always hated it. there was this mixture of fear, jealousy, and shame that surrounded me and girl scouts, i remember walking past them once and wishing that i could be a part of it too. i couldn't have been older than 10/11 at the time either. if only i had known back then....

it is and is in a lot of respects inferior to boy scouts. that's why they're renaming, bc there are girls in "boy" scouts now.

The thing is, venture scouts were always a thing and were always co-ed for kids 14-20. They only did the cool stuff and never did any of the lame paperwork and shit, so it's not like you were getting a worse version of the activities. But it doesn't have a gendered term in the name so no one actually did the research too realize they could just do that instead.
