i'm just curious. after i saw a video on a girl getting kicked out of girl scouts because she has autism, it's a clique. don't be fooled by those smiling girls on the cookie boxes. i was wondering if anyone's ever heard of any mtf or ftm children/teens who got kicked out or rejected from girl scouts because of their gender identity.

I work for the Girl Scouts ... Girl Scouts don't kick kids out for autism.. .. she was likely booted from her troop but not out of Girl Scouts

In my area ... I have placed several under 18 mtf girls into troops ... sent them to camp .. not a problem.

After the age of 18 it really isn't a problem b/c Girl Scouts lets everyone join regardless of sex ... if your an adult all we exclude folks for is sex offenders, drug addicts & violent offenders

YAY! We can still buy the cookies then?

it was just the troop, but you work for the whole organization?

Yes... I do ... and I am transitioning at work and there has been absolutely no problems...infact I am not out completely at work and they have already changed my business cards
