You may not know what this whole drama is about. On Aug 31st, The BSA put out a statement saying how in 2019, they had 7 troops with girls in them. Boy Scouts released a statement about how they are happy to have girls join. A chambers user posted the statement and got downvoted for it. The BSA released another statement saying that it was "inaccurate" to say that girls were part of the BSA and how they were in Venturing/Exploring/Sea Scouts (the coed branches, which do not have the same programs as the BSA). The BSA got mad at chambers for downvoting their "inaccurate" statement and said how they didn't have girls in regular Scout troops. They still won't admit that they actually wouldn't kick out a girl from a troop. On Aug 31st, in their first statement, the BSA said how "Scouts BSA" is how they call regular troops with girls and boys.<br><br>And now, the BSA released a video on FaceBook. They say how they "did not have girls in BSA troops before Oct 2018" (Which, by my own definition, is not true since girls have been part of the BSA since 1969 in the Senior Program which was part of the BSA program). They said how girls have been part of the BSA since 1971 in the coed branches (Venturing/Exploring/Sea Scouts). They released this video to show how they aren't sexist and how girls have been in the Boy Scouts since the 70s, but they are lying. They still won't admit that they had 7 troops with girls before Oct 2018, they just said how they wouldn't kick out a girl if she wanted to join (Which in my eyes, means the girl is part of the BSA as well). Boy Scouts tries to released this video to show how they aren't sexist, but the truth is that they are sexist. They just don't want chambers to expose them for who they are. They are mad at chambers for calling them out for their sexism.
