As for the Girl Scouts, I understand their position perfectly. My wife is heavily involved in our kid's youth league; In fact, she's in charge of it. If they had a boy that wanted to be a cheerleader the amount of problems it would cause would be huge. It's one thing to respects the rights of this kid, but it would be another thing to have two thirds of the kids pull out of the sports team because a boy wants to be a cheerleader - or even a girl wanting to be a football player.

why would it be a problem if a boy wanted to be a chearleadser or a girl play football?
we are suposed to be in an age were people are equall.
to be honest in the uk, i do not understand why girls play in seperate teams to lads inb uk football.
besides in usa football, they were helmits and so much padding that you could not tell if somone ws male or female.
and if that lad wants to dressw asa a girl and be in the girl guids, so what. he probably is more of a girl than the girls in the girl scouts.
live and let live.
