well we should protest that with a good home ec bake sale.Too late. Most schools don't offer it anymore.when i was in the 6th grade (pretty much at the height of my boy scout career) we had a choice for elementary school.When I was in Girl Scouts, back in the dark ages, we got cooking and sewing badges. I wonder if the boys will be doing those too. Maybe it's already a choice--I don't know.
My GS leader was not an outdoorsy type AT ALL. We went on one picnic and she forgot the charcoal. We did crafts and poisoned our families with our cooking.
cake decorating or bike repair.
only me and 1 other guy took cake decorating. we caught a lot of hell at first and then, after they were done fixing a flat tire, they saw me and him in a room full of girls eating cake.
suddenly we were the smart ones.
i don't know why people have to think that an organization that caters to a select group is bad. some things it seems they want torn down for no good reason other than it's there. this is one of 'em.
If I could go back to my high school days, i'd try to take Home Ec.
