Men and the Girl Scouts

Posted on 29. Oct, 2007 by Brian Reid in General

The WSJ Juggle blog had a nice post today from a dad who has gotten involved in the local Brownie group, a job he initially assumed would fall to his wife. I’m lucky to live in an area with plenty of PTA dads and even a Brownie dad or two, so this doesn’t sound outrageous to me, but I had to love the ah-ha moment, recounted in the post, when he realizes that there’s nothing intrinsic in running the Brownies that calls for two X chromosomes.

(However, as with On Balance, I often despair for our nation when I read some of the comments …)

    Yeah, those anonymous trolls in that thread at the WSJ are awful. They really should ban ‘em like the Post did. I suspect they may have moved _to_ the WSJ because of the more lax policy towards trolls.
