I was in Girl Scouts. :3 I loved it very much, though I also wanted to be in Boy Scouts because they did more cool things.  I wouldn't trade the experience of Girl Scouts for anything, though.  I learned a lot there that has helped me.

No. But being that I'm a teenager I can be in the girl scouts, so maybe I just will.

I did it right up until I was 16, then I bought a car and started taking myself camping.
FIGHT APATHY!, or don't...

I was in Boy Scouts and hated every second of it

Somehow, I forced myself to get Eagle Scout just to impress my dad or something

not a day passed after I finished the requirements for it before i came out to my parents

guess i was done pretending  :laugh:

 I regret not having an experience like this in my childhood, though perhaps it's just as well. I was an outcast in school from Kindergarten to twelve - I doubt an extra-curricular environment would have been any better. And if it was male-only, it might have been dangerous.

Not having a girl-only experience makes me feel a little hollow at times, but there's plenty of time in the future to remedy that I suppose.

I can relate to much of what Kelly said above. I was put in Girl Scouts for a little while but then refused to go because I didn't feel I belonged there. I've had buddies who were in Boy Scouts all the way through high school and I was always so envious.

Aw, I'm not a "troo man"  ;)
I always wanted to be in the girl scouts.  :P It sounded much more fun than camping, which I was barely interested in. (Didn't know the boy scouts actually did funner stuff!)

I honestly was only interested in them for their cookies, though. XD
